Hooray. Hope you are well. :D

A tactical note on Frenzy Barb. I tended to use Walk instead of Run at all times with my Frenzy barb. I used Leap Attack to travel great distances over empty spaces. One point wonder.

Why?

I boosted DR (a bit of luck on rare Armor drops) to where it now and again stopped a hit.

Between some + skills and Shout, and a point in Iron Skin with + skills, the speed of Frenzy Walk provides enough speed to move with sufficient agility, and when you are on a killing streak, walking both avoids desynch and allows your DR to work as you run from spot to spot to engage, particularly when missile shooters are about.

Not a cure all to getting hit, Lister's boys have that irritating ITD Smite skill.

Taunt was my key to slowing down archers/spell casters. Taunt a guy to you, hit with Frenzy, and walk (quickly) all over the battlefield doing that slice and dice thing. :whistling:

Anyhoo, a handy tactical tool for some fights, YMMV.
