[QUOTE="Paraxis, post: 6348624, member: 13009"] I like it a lot. It will depend on the final version of the barbarian in the PHB, they may not fall behind the other classes like the fighter and ranger with it being a flat bonus, but it looks like they will. So this seems like a great fix. I like how it is like sneak attack but not, with the die type increase not just getting more d6's. To be honest it would make more sense if rogue's had a fixed sneak attack damage value and barbarians use this alternative, but I guess rogues getting extra d6's is now set since it was in 3e and 4e. I like the idea of giving a rogue a flat +4 per die of sneak attack, boosts the average but isn't doubled on crits. Anyway, I will probably play RAW for the first campaign and start to house rule in the second but this barbarian rage damage die is getting bookmarked for later use. [/QUOTE]
