Have there been any changes made to the barbarian skill Fury lately? It seems to never land now. I recently mastered berserk, and ever since then fury hasn't been landing. I mastered fury recently also and it's still missing alot.

Anything been done to it or is this just incredibly bad luck?

Sounds like bad luck. I've heard that the lower your HP the higher the chance fury will proc. Are you hitting it at 100% hp?

Maybe this is it. Thanks. I never noticed a difference before though.

Typically when I had my barb, i'd say wait til about 50-70% hp (based on damage you're taking) to berserk. More often than not after takng that much of a beating, theres a good probability your barb will be PO'd enough to bash some faces in ;)

I had over 90% success with fury before it was mastered if I was low enough on HP to not heal myself to full with a fury heal, which was somewhere aroudn 75% hp with my barb.

My two cents. Berserking out of combat or when I wasn't hurt had a 1/3 or so chance of leaving me without fury.

Yeah, you do have to take some damage, and it's also beneficial to a barbarian's play style to use that. I would say Fury fires off more than 75% of the time if you have Berserk mastered and Fury at superb or better and you've taken some damage. You could even take as little as 5-10% and get Fury to fire off a lot.

This is kind of the point. Before I mastered berserk. I never missed berserk/fury. Now that I have mastere them both. I will miss them all the time. I fail fury often now. I never failed before. I will sit there out of combat and fail berserk/fury 4 or 5 times. I used to land it first try before they were mastered.

In combat I haven't noticed a change. Maybe i've just had a long, bad run of bad luck. It's not impossible. :(
