Furious - Barbarian Gameplay 103

FURIOUS
If it moves... hit it. Repeatedly.

 

Between World of Warcraft, Diablo 3, and Heroes of the Storm, I've come to like the fury warrior / barbarian play style. It converts your MAGICKA into FURY or RAGE. This means:

• When you leave combat you'll slowly leak mana.
  

• You only generate mana [and slowly] while in combat.
  

• You generate mana in larger chunks by being hit.
  

• So to recap, in order to cast any spells, you are going to have to get really mad first. From this point on MANA/MAGICKA is going to be called FURY/RAGE.
  

Some of the barbarian spells which are OP will be rage percentage based, while others will remain a fixed cost. Putting points into your Magicka will still grow the size of your mana pool, helping you use more barbarian spells, as regen is always percent based.

 

Note: This mod is my only safe-for-work mod, and it has gotten a lot of positive feedback so I have elected to try posting it on Nexus once to see how long it takes me to regret that decision. LoversLab will remain my primary release platform. I don't know why you should care, but whatever, now you know.

 

 

 

CURRENT VERSION: 103
Recent Versions Added:

• You will need to BARBARIAN UPDATE in the MCM menu to see changes take effect.
  

• [103] Just a minor enhancement to the Sadist perk to reduce save bloat faster than the game does naturally.
  

• [102] Added two new Rage Overflow perks - healing and stamina - in the Restoration tree. When your rage is full, your passive rage generation goes to health and/or stamina instead.

• [101] Fixed Barbaric Sadist perk to not include spells and ranged.

BARBARIAN "SPELLS"

• ENRAGE - Lesser Power - Instantly fill 25% of your rage at the cost of 25% of your health. Generate an additional 10% over 10sec at the same equal cost of health. Yes, it is possible to kill yourself doing this - my D&D guys should be nodding.
  

• SHOCKWAVE - Lesser Power - Blast a concussive wave with a mighty roar or something to that effect. Staggers assholes in your way. Costs 50 rage.
  

• BARBARIAN LOCKPICKING - Lesser Power - bashes the locked object under the crosshairs until it unlocks. 25% base chance to succeed which increases with your lockpicking skills. And also increases your lockpicking skill. Lol. Should work on anything that is locked. Breezehome? Mine now motherfucker.
  

 

 

 

BARBARIAN PERKS

• BARBARIC CH'I - Absorb energy from attacks upon a successful block. Each rank (max 3) increases rage generated from that hit by 5%. Requires block skill of 20 and at least one point into Shield Wall.
  

• BARBARIAN SADIST - Also generate rage when *you* hit things, using the same mechanics as when you are hit. Requires One Handed OR Two Handed skill of 30. This perk exists in both trees. Getting it twice (it wont even let you anyway) won't double up the effectiveness. It is in both trees purely so you may specialise in your weapon of choice.
  

• RAGE OVERFLOWS: HEAL, AND STAMINA - When your rage is full your passive rage generation goes towards your health and/or stamina instead. These perks live in the Restoration tree.
  

 

 

 

REQUIREMENTS
