This Barbarian Skill Has a Weird Little Secret - Barbarian Skill Guide [ Bash Stun Concentrate ]
There will likely always be weird little quirks in how the Diablo 2 skills work - especially when you start deep diving into them, this is especially true when looking at damage mechanics and how many layers of duct tape hold them together. So let's look at Bash, Stun, and Concentrate - that are holding their pile of little secrets.
Comparison of the original Diablo 2 cinematics and Diablo 2 Resurrected Cinematics, the audio syncs up super well, so only included the D2R audio, tried to give a good balance of side by side and full-screen cinematic examples.

Sadly Unique Staves are some of the most overlooked weapons in Diablo 2 Resurrected, and not entirely without reason - but hidden in their ranks is one of the best melee weapons in the game, as well as a few great tools for solo self found players.

Vile Children, and we don't mean the brats at the store, are a spawnable unit in Diablo 2 - spawned from Vile Mothers. Cold Immune, dealing only small bits of damage, they can still be dangerous if left to gather in large numbers.

Andariel is the boss of Act 1 in Diablo 2 - the lesser evil, and the Maiden of Anguish, and the queen of poison. The first boss you will meet, and likely the best for killing your mercenary.

With 2.4, the shapeshifting skills got a massive change in how their attack speed works - and while the skills themselves are still relatively simple, they are getting shifted to having slightly different goals than in their previous versions, so today we'll talk about that, before leaning into the individual skills available to them.

Formerly 3 of the best blizzard sorceress support skills, Glacial Spike, Ice Blast, and Ice Bolt are often underappreciated tools of the Ice sorc's arsenal, even with the increased popularity of the "BlizzOrb" sorceress that combines Blizzard and Frozen Orb with the new cooldown mechanics of 2.4, these skills still have some fairly strong roles in the developments of the builds.
