Frenzied Berserker questions

[schotty]

Hi All,

I STILL haven't heard from our local friendly gaming shop about when my copy of MOTW is coming in and they don't know when it is coming in and want to know what the prereq's for Frenzied Berserker are.

I know that you can Frenzy for +6 Str and -4 AC which stacks with the Rage bonuses, but I don't know the Prereq's.

Also I want to know if you have to be raging to frenzy?

i have also heard that you need to make a DC 20 will save if you frenzy longer than combat lasts... which may be a real problem with a Will save of +4

I can't wait until the Australian shipments of the books get here.

Thanks
Schotty.

Can't help you there. I'll move this to Rules, though, since it is about rules.

You do not have to be raging to frenzy.

To become one you need to be non lawful, BAB +6, and the feats of Power attack, cleave, Destructive rage, and intimidating rage. the last two are new and from MotW.

The frenzy lasts 3+ con bonus in rnds. If you are trying to end it early you need to make a will save of DC 20. Good luck with that.

Other cool features of the class are that Frenzy and Rage stack and at 4th level you cannot be killed by hp damage (Deathless Frenzy) while in a Frenzy, your totals can go negative forever. This is the ultimate min/max class, very powerful melee fighter with severe restrictions.

ACtually I think it's a great role playing clss. You have the Classic line "Don't make me mad, you won't like it if you make me angry." The other PCs will know what your like and they will go out of their way to make sure others don't set you off. Plus you can eventually inspire rage in others, whether they want to or not. It just sounds like a fun character to play.
