Punish is a rune effect in Bash, a Fury-generating Barbarian skill.

This rune effect increases the damage of all Barbarian skills for five seconds after each Bash, and can be stacked up to three times for a total damage boost of 24%. This rune is basically being used as a buff to other skills, almost like a very short duration war cry. Players want to alternate this with their other main skills, to keep the 3 stacked damage while taking advantage of the other skills, such as Cleave or Frenzy, that have a higher damage output than Bash.
