<br><br><br>__TOC__
==BackgroundDescription==
Nerves of Steel is a passive that focuses mostly on Barbarian's defensive aspect, giving him [[defense]] for every point of [[vitality]]. Especially noteworthy for [[hardcore]] characters as they tend to focus more on defensive stats to keep themselves alive in every possible situation.

{{Passive history notes}}
===Beta===Nerves of Steel was not seen until it showed up late in the late Diablo III [[beta ]] as a level 12 passive. When passives were reorganized for [[Beta Patch 14]], Nerves of Steel was moved up to level 13 and heavily [[buff]]ed: the defense increase jumped from 25% to 100%.
