Will of the Forsaken is an undead racial trait which removes any Charm, Fear, or Sleep effect. The ability does not remove the horrify from Death Coil or deep slumber effects such as during the Mograine event in Scarlet Monastery.

The ability is a similar but more limited version of Spell shadow charm [Will to Survive], but unlike that ability does not full share a cooldown with Faction Insignia trinkets (as of Patch 3.3.)

Previous versions[]

Until Patch 1.6, Will of the Forsaken removed existing charm/fear/sleep effects and granted immunity to those effects for 20 seconds. This was nerfed and the immunity was decreased to 5 seconds. Ability racial cannibalize [Cannibalize] was tweaked to offset this change.

Patch 3.0.2 further nerfed the ability by removing the immunity entirely. The ability now only removes the effects that are currently on the player's character.
