What kind of help is Leap to a Leap Attcker ?
What kind of help is Bash to a Stunner ?
And so on...
Sorry, but with a few exceptions (Howl for Berserk for instance), I don't find that barb synergies are exceptionnally well laid-out. :huh:
The other two though are pretty consistent with what the Synergy idea is about: Offering a system to continue a smooth skill enhancement that follows a character deep into Hell level.
In my opinion "well laid out" can only mean "well laid out in terms of structurally on the trees" and not necessarily "aesthetically linked in the skill effects". Most of the Barbarian Combat Skills fit this bill in that they look to the preceeding pre-requisite in that tree for support. Shout for Berserk strikes me as silly and so too is the Warcry supporting Frenzy, before even considering Shout and Berserk are mutually exclusive.
