'''Note:''' The current [[trait]] list is very out-of-date and will no doubt be overhauled before game releases are yet known.
<blockquote>''What happens with Revenge is that you put it on the 1-5 keys, and it stays grayed out/unusuable until you get into a fight. At some point during the battle, if you have enough Fury and you get hit, it activates. Then you can hit the hotkey to use it, and your Barb makes a kind of spinning back swing, like a counter in a fighting game.<br><br>
''...I didn’t actually need it during the demo with the Barb; I was never low on hit points and could have passed up 75% of the health globes I earned. But the whole game won’t be as easy as this demo, and with more points in Revenge, or perhaps with skill runes, the life leech might be raised (or the activation might be increased in frequency) up enough to make this a really valuable source of health.</blockquote>
Skill tiers were removed for the July 2011 Press Event, and Revenge became a level 12 skill.

The mechanic for this skill was probably inspired from Warrior skills in World of Warcraft, where you can only cast some skills if you've been hit in the last X seconds. With the restraints on the use of the skill, it is 's not strange that it is [[Fury]] free.
