[edit] Description

This skill has a 3 synergies. Berserk, Battle Command and Battle Orders. And it is a good skill to invest your points into once you've maxed all your other skills (for WW barbs and Berserk barbs only of course)

[edit] Lore

Barbarian warriors are born to command in battle. When a warrior learns this skill he can raise his voice above the din of combat to shout warnings of impending blows to his comrades in arms. This will alert them in time to allow them to guard against the incoming attack.^[1]
