Barbarian Rages

[Daedalus]

I would like to propose a buff to the Barbarian Rages. In my opinion Mighty and Thundering are pretty much useless.

Thunders gives bonuse to crit damage, perhaps it could also gives some bonuses to damage or perhaps a deafen on hit or something, it is thundering rage after all. (I've played on a server that did do this and it worked quite well)

Secondly Might Rage is useless, it grants +2 str and con and will save more than greater. A +6 to a stat is easily obtainable here so it is pointless. How aboun bonus ab, or bonues to another stats.

Anyone else got some thoughts on the subject?

Rumour has it that Mighty Rage has already been buffed in some way, but the devs and the few epic barbarians in the world are being mysterious about it.

Er. Thundering rage already deafens on hit according to the feat description and i haven't heard that it's been changed, but the critical bonus doesn't stack with Massive Critical on weapons.

I have been a part of tests made with Pure Barbarian Rage bonuses in the past and can tell you that the Devs have made efforts to buff the Barbarian Rages. I'm not sure if those bonuses have kicked in or not - last I remembered, there were still some issues to be resolved with getting some of the effects to work properly. Just need someone more in the know to chime in and give more details on the matter.

Well, the "Pure" class bonuses haven't gone live yet. But changes to Mighty Rage, Terrifying Rage, and Thundering Rage are already live. Some changes are slight, and others still need a tweak or two, but they're live and useable by most Epic Barbarians. Perhaps I'll post the specific changes made by the wonderful Metis soon.

It would be nice to see some more items with an Intimadate skill bonus out there as well. There's 1 nice one but some variety would allow some versatitly in Barbarian Ragers
