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"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.
Replace best with only
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.
