Skill Design

Ground Stomp is a useful skill, it will buy the Barbarian precious time should the need arise, however, it is unknown if it will work on bosses. It has unique properties as well, Skeletal Shieldmen for example, have a shield that blocks most if not all damage, however, casting Ground Stomp will cause them to drop their shields, making these skeletons a very easy job.
