Metamorphosis

This is one of several client rows named Metamorphosis, not the player ability. Looking for the spell you cast? See Metamorphosis →

Metamorphosis is unchanged in WoW Forever: the client ships the same tooltip as Classic Era. Its tooltip reads: "Gain the Metamorphosis ability: Transform into a Demon, increasing Armor by 500%, Health by 15%, reducing the chance you will be critically hit by 6%, increasing your threat by 77%, increasing mana gained from Life Tap by 100%, but reducing all damage you deal by 15%. Metamorphosis transforms the functionality of some abilities and grants new ones: Searing Pain: Now instant. Shadow Bolt: Becomes Shadow Cleave, a Shadow melee attack that hits up to 10 nearby enemies, but has a 6 sec cooldown. Fear: Replaced with Menace. Taunts the target to attack you, but has no effect if the target is already attacking you. Demon Charge Charge an enemy and stun it for 1 sec. Cannot be used in combat. Demonic Howl Forces all nearby enemies to focus attacks on you for 6 sec."

Metamorphosis tooltip, the same in Classic Era and WoW Forever
