<blockquote>''I used this one a few times to test it out, and it worked, but I could hardly tell the difference, since monsters were dying so quickly anyway. As was the case with the Monk, the Barbarian was so strong and overpowered in the Blizzcon build that boosting him further with war cries wasn’t something many players bothered with. “Ugg too busy smash! Ugg not use stragedy!”</blockquote>
Battle Rage was available in the [[BlizzCon 2010]] demo, but there are no gameplay reports detailing any use of the skill. Skill tiers were removed for the [[July 2011 Press Event]], allowing skills to unlock steadily from levels 1 to 30. Consequently, all skill levels were adjusted and Battle Rage became a level 3 skill. The skill system was once again overhauled for the [[ ===Beta==={{Beta Patch 13]], and Battle Rage was classified as a Might skill and moved up to level 14.notes}}
Battle Rage remained at level 3 when the beta started. With the Patch 13 changes, it was classified as a Might skill and moved up to level 14, putting it out of reach of beta players. For the [[Beta Patch 14]], it was re-classified as a Tactics skill and bumped all the way up to level 22.
