Rules Update: Berserkers & Celts

The skill USED to be that way... and no one used it, because it was so detrimental.  You wound up attacking your friends, who had to take you down somehow, almost without exception.

The change is worded such that the skill is actually worthwhile to use - once all of your opponents are down, you snap out of the rage, or 10 minutes, which ever comes first.  Of course, if someone tries to help you... they've just targeted you, so you now consider them an enemy.

If these changes were meant to encourage people to get more into their berserkers, its already worked on me

Oh man, now Ridigan has a reason to possibly go berserker! Yus!

Adding one additional line to clarify Berserker Rage:

"While under the effects of this skill, the character may only use abilities with the Melee trait."

Original post will be edited to include this.

This has been updated in the January 2012 edition of the Rulebook.
