Provoke the Pack
Provoke the Pack is a rune effect in Sacrifice, a Support Witch Doctor skill designed to turn living Zombie Dogs into damaging explosions.
This skill rune grants the Witch Doctor a damage buff; 5% for each dog, with a 30 second duration. This is a fairly substantial damage bonus, comparable to those provided to other classes by Mantras and Warcries, though it pales beside the Witch Doctor's own Soul Harvest, when properly used.

The following is a very quick summary. See the Sacrifice rune effects page for a more thorough description of rune effects, or any of the individual rune pages for numbers, screenshots, blue quotes, and much more.

Development
Prior to the skill revision in February 2012, this rune effect was enabled by the Crimson Rune, granting the following effect with a level 7 runestone. The developers obviously found the previous version overpowered, as the retail version of this rune effect grants 1/8 the benefit for 1/2 the time.
