Skill Design

This skill was introduced at Blizzcon 2010. There are currently no visuals available for the skill, and no reports on it from demo players. It was revealed in the skill tree.

Skill Rank Table

Rank 1: Perform a slashing vicious blow to all enemies within X feet, dealing X% weapon damage and an additional X-X physical damage over X seconds.

Trait Synergies

Rend benefits directly from the following traits:

Intimidation: Increases damage done and reduces vendor costs.
Cruelty: Increases your chance of dealing critical strikes.
Weak Spot: Increases critical strike damage.

Rend may benefit from the following traits:

Frenzied Attacks: Increases the chance to deal critical strikes and increases critical strike damage when the Barbarian is wielding two weapons.
Thunderous Blows: Increases damage done when the Barbarian is wielding a two-handed weapon.
Beast Hunter: Damage bonus against Beasts.
Demonsbane: Damage bonus against Demons.
Just...Stay...Dead!: Damage bonus against Undead.
Massive Blow: You have a chance to hit all nearby targets with a single hit. Requires a two-handed weapon.

Die by the Sword: Increases damage done when the Barbarian is wielding swords.
Axe Murderer: Increases damage done when the Barbarian is wielding axes.
Brain Basher: Increases damage done when the Barbarian is wielding maces.

Note: The current trait list is very out-of-date and will no doubt be overhauled before game release.

Skill Rune Effects

No rune effects for Rend are known.

Development

Rend debuted at BlizzCon 2010, but the Barbarian couldn't level up high enough to select it, so there are no gameplay reports detailing any use of this skill.
