==Skill Design==
When launching a Seismic Slam, the barbarian lifts one foot and brings it down with her weapon, slamming them into the ground and sending a wave of energy forward, dealing heavy damage to anything directly in front of her. Multiple monsters can be hit by each use, and the ground is torn and fractured by this skill. Seismic Slam is a strong and fun skill to use, causing damage to the environment and as well as to enemies. The skill can cause wooden ornaments to be destroyed or can cause walls to collapse. This skill should be aimed to hit multiple enemies at once, as the damage is good and will keep the fury rolling in for the use of other skills. During the [[WWI_2008:_Denizens_of_Diablo_Panel#Barbarian:_Seismic_Slam|WWI 2008 Denizens of Diablo panel]], The [[D3 team]] spoke at length about the creation of this essential skill, and how it was used to focus the design of the character.
