Passive Skills

Passive skills replaced Traits during late game development in 2011. A few Traits were simply changed to passive skills, but most are all new. See the Barbarian traits page for a full list of those old passives.

Development

The Barbarian's skills and skill trees were first seen at BlizzCon 2008, with only a few skills enabled and many showing nothing more than vague descriptions in the skill tree.

Removed Skills

The updated Barbarian skills list at Blizzcon 2010 removed all earlier passive skills (they became Barbarian traits) and changed around a number of active skills as well.

Five skills were added in Blizzcon 2010.

The following skills were present in 2009, and gone in 2010. Many of these were turned, more or less directly, into Barbarian Traits.

Berserker Skills
Juggernaut Skills
Battlemaster Skills
- Battle Cry
- Second Wind
- Stubborn
- Enrage
- Inspiration
- Retaliation
- Cripple
