Smite spell

So…
why is this the ONLY spell that causes you to pull out your weapon when an enemy gets within melee range?
It just breaks the cool spellcaster stance and makes fighting look awkward.

Well that does it, I think I’ve finally seen a complaint about absolutely everything

Honestly. I never noticed this. Probably a visual bug more than anything.

I’m just happy we have void blast with a cool animation. Smite’s animation has always been lame.

not necessarily a visual bug as it isn’t just pulling out the weapon, it is the auto attack itself and i have not seen this with any other spell or any other caster class. Literally just Smite for some reason activating weapon auto attack.

It’s the only caster spell I’ve used that selects a nearby enemy when you press it even if you don’t have anything targeted. I always wondered why it is like this or if it’s a bug. It is flagged to initiate auto-attack on the spell page on wowhead.

I have it on a help/harm macro now, but I used to worry when I first started playing that I’d accidentally pull a random mob in a dungeon if my current target was close to dying.
