Skill Design

Frenzy is a passive skill that becomes activated from the moment you spend a skill point into it. The chance to activate the attack speed increase with a successful hit is 100%, and players who want their Barbarians to be faster than they already are with 'any' weapon, will certainly enjoy this skill.

Development

Frenzy was first seen in the BlizzCon 2008 demo, but has roots in Diablo II where the Barbarian has a skill with the same name. Diablo 2 Frenzy is an active skill providing attack speed, movement speed, attack rating, damage and would speed up other skills.

The first version of the Diablo III skill was also active, and increased weapon damage by 120% and attack speed by 6%, stackable three times.

The BlizzCon 2009 build changed it into a passive skill that built up as the Barbarian landed successful hits on his opponents. It provides a simple attack speed stackable buff.
