War Bringer

War Bringer

Ascendancy Notable Passive Skill

Warcries grant 10 Rage per 5 Power if you have less than 25 Rage
Warcries Sacrifice 10 Rage if you have at least 25 Rage
Exerted Attacks deal 50% more Attack Damage if a Warcry Sacrificed Rage Recently [1]

War Bringer is a notable Ascendancy passive skill for the Berserker. It grants Rage based on the amount of power of a warcry. If you have at least 25 Rage, it sacrifices that much Rage to make your exerted attacks deal more damage for 4 seconds.

Warcries are enhanced proportionate to the power of nearby enemies, calculated at the time they are cast. Normal monsters are counted as 1, magic monsters as 2, rare as 10, unique as 20, and players as 5.

War Bringer (Ruthless)

Ascendancy Notable Passive Skill

Nearby corpses Explode when you Warcry, dealing 10% of their Life as Physical Damage
Warcries Exert 1 additional Attack

War Bringer in Ruthless mode does not grant or sacrifice rage or increase the damage of exerted attacks. Instead, it causes corpses to explode dealing physical damage and causes warcries to exert an additional attack.
