This is the best skill in the Berserker skill tree, with a whooping cost of 3 Fury Orbs at once. This skill is probably made to take care of bosses and other very hard enemies, like with damage immunity.
Skill Design
This skill puts the word "Overpowered" to shame, causing all of the Barbarian's hits to be critical hits. This skill is really the definition of the Berserker skill tree. Also, the description of the skill indicates that there will be enemies with damage immunities, making this skill, magically enchanted weapons and magic damage skills the only way to defeat them.
We are only sure of the stats on rank 1 of this skill, it is hard to imagine what the stats will be on higher levels. The only thing hard about this skill is the 12 second duration, make those seconds count.
