Skill Design
Seismic Slam is a strong and fun skill to use, causing damage to the environment and to enemies. The skill can cause wooden ornaments to be destroyed or can cause walls to collapse. This skill should be aimed to hit multiple enemies at once, as the damage is good and will keep the fury rolling in for the use of other skills.

Development
Seismic Slam was seen in every Diablo 3 game demo to date, and was slightly balanced, judging from the latest demo. The old Seismic Slam only did 100% weapon damage on rank one.
During the WWI 2008 Denizens of Diablo Panel, the development team talked at length about Seismic Slam and how it affected the Barbarian class, which can be read by following the link above.
