Fury
,→August 2009
===August 2009===
During the BlizzCon 2009 Diablo 3 panel on August 21st, Jay Wilson "The Mad Overseer" showed off new improvements and iterations on the Fury system, as they felt it wasn't at the same gameplay pace that Diablo games usually were. Since Diablo games are fast paced, the old fury system didn't work well, as it was taken from the Warrior class in World of Warcraft (to some degree), and in World of Warcraft, doing damage and taking damage would generate rage for the player, but World of Warcraft is a much slower game than Diablo, so it did not live up to the task. The Diablo 3 team didn't want a barbarian to hit a monster 10 times just so you can use one spell.
::You build fury to use skills, as the majority of the barbarians skills require some amount of fury to use. There is a shout that generates fury itself, so it’s not always necessary to be in combat for a while before you can start using skills.
