Skill Design
It is unknown how this skill works, does the Barbarian hurl his currently equipped weapon? Does the hurled weapon get dropped? Does this skill require Thrown weapons? Speculate at your own risk. This skill was probably made to catch pesky creatures or to use on a strong monster and then move away to heal/calculate next move.
