The Barbarian's ancestors aid him by rejoining the battlefield.
==Skill Design==
This [[skill]] [[summon]]s the three ancestors that the player was charged with fighting in [[act]] five of Lord of Destruction: [[Talic]], [[Korlic]] and [[Madawc]]. They deal a percentage of the weapon damage that the barbarian is capable of inflicting, presumably increasing with level. [[Bashiok]] had made a quick comment on the skill:
<blue>Well, he does have very few spells like this... just the one actually. :)
It's a top tier skill, so you can't buy it until somewhere around the end of Normal or maybe beginning of Nightmare. They're fairly short lived, at least at their base skill. I will admit it's pretty nutty, especially when it's planned that each of them (probably through runes) will use various barbarian skills themselves. But, I do think the flavor and vibe works. The barbarian calling upon the spiritual protector's of his homeland and people which now lay, along with the majority of barbarian society, in the afterlife, if not simply ash at the bottom of a fiery chasm. It makes good sense that they would be easily summoned to assist in redemption, honor, what have you, of the barbarian people.</blue>
