War Cry

Description

Injures and stuns all nearby enemies.

The stunning effect of this skill, especially at higher durations, is extremely useful.

The skill also works well with fast cast rate, especially since all the enemies in melee distance around him stay stunned for as long as he uses it, and may be weakened by his

Battle Cry or

Taunt as well.

War Cry has a rather small radius, much smaller than any of the other War Cries.

War Cry is subject to a 6 frame Next Hit Delay. Because the maximum cast rate for Barbarians is 7 frames (at 200% Faster Cast Rate), this is unlikely to cause issues after the Patch 2.7 rework to the Next Hit Delay mechanic.

Lore

Summoning the ancient powers known to his people, a Barbarian warrior can call on his spirit animal and lash out at his enemies with a cry that halts them in their tracks-a powerful anguish rising to burn the depths of their being.

It is this skill that gives rise to the legends of Barbarians being able to sap the life from a creature with a single word.

Can be used to make Runewords:
