The Battlemaster skill tree is a Barbarian skill tree themed with the finer aspects of combat, and has skills to reflect this.

Tree Analysis

The Battlemaster tree focuses on creating barbarians whose main role in battle is to be good at combat on all levels and maintaining a good defense than barbarians of other builds. Also, like any skill tree focusing on any element of gameplay, it cannot be called a skill tree if it doesn't have signature skills that can actually kill. Luckily for us, the Battlemaster tree has a few cool skills that makes enemies easy to kill, like Hammer of the Ancients, Weapon Throw and Furious Charge.
