Skill Design

Revenge is a good skill to heal up when swarmed, as when surrounded by monsters, the chances of Revenge being usable becomes quite high. The amount healed is in percentages, so hitting 5 enemies will give you 10% of your total health at rank 1. The damage is also good with 150% of a very damaging yet slow weapon will make this skill useful to cause some havoc and heal up.

Development

Skill was first introduced in the BlizzCon 2008 demo, and has not changed much in the Blizzcon 2009 version. The old Revenge would hit for 100% weapon damage at rank 1, as opposed to the current 110%.

The mechanic for this skill was probably inspired from Warrior skills in World of Warcraft, where you can only cast some skills if you've been hit in the last X seconds. With the restraints on the use of the skill, it is not strange it is Fury free.
