[QUOTE="Xeviat, post: 7189075, member: 57494"] I picked "mostly", mostly because I've always preferred the idea of a barbarian going into a rage, not choosing to go into a rage. I liked 3E's PHB 2 rage variant where it was triggered at low HP, and 4E's Heroes of the Fey Wild variant that raged when bloodied. I know what the "x/day" rage "means", but deep down it always feels like "choosing" to rage, and then I get the image of a barbarian taking off their top-hat and monocle and saying "Good friends, I think it's time to get angry now". The berserker could be altered too. I've seen a Totem (bear) played at level 5-7, and a battlerager played at 5-6. The battlerager's extra attack has been very useful (he doesn't have GWFing), and the totem barbarian's use of GWFing and Reckless Attack made him quite the force. Half damage while raging is one of my most favorite mechanics this edition; combined with Reckless Attack, it really feels like a barbarian. [/QUOTE]
