Leap Attack has not changed much from D2, and has been demonstrated repeatedly in the gameplay movies. The main difference with the D3 version of this skill is that minor damage is dealt to everything nearby when the Barbarian lands, rather than major damage to one particular monster.
This spell hasn't been changed much since its unveiling, at least not publicly.<!--<gallery>Image:Diablo_III_Logo.jpg|Skill use 1</gallery>==Trivia==Fun facts. If you add a trivia fact, also add the it to the Category:Trivia.-->

==Skill Design==
Once the player activates the skill, the Barbarian will leap from his current location, to the location of the mouse cursor, damaging and knocking enemies back upon landing. This skill is best used to reach [[ranged ]] monsters, who are behind enemy lines and to escape tight situations, if such occur. Leap Attack has not changed much from D2, and has been demonstrated repeatedly in the gameplay movies. The main difference with the D3 version of this skill is that minor damage is dealt to everything nearby when the Barbarian lands, rather than major damage to one particular monster.
