Quote:3.) I'm not sure what you meant by a knockback effect on landing with Leap. Did you accidentally write something down for Leap Attack? Maybe it has one I never noticed?? Heh, I never really used leap, just waited for Leap Attack.
There's definitely a very distinct knockback effect upon landing with Leap; just that most people wouldn't notice since Leap is usually skipped in favour of Leap Attack which allows a much longer range at just level one.

Quote:4.) Now the most nitpicking thing I could think to say  berserk is the "barbarians best anti PI attack"
Replace best with only
Berserk is definitely not a barbarian's only PI attack... it all depends on the build. For one thing, at least two of my barbs don't need (or can't use) berserk against PIs.

One is a frenzier who relies largely on high elemental damage (and occasionally crushing blow) and has very minimal physical damage, meaning that frenzy will tend to give a far faster killing speed against PIs. The other is a bowabarb who doesn't have the option of berserking in the first place. Buriza (or Kuko) + elemental charms more than covers the amount of damage I need to kill.

For most other more normal barbarians, berserk is most certainly the best solution though.
