Usage Notes

  • Use Primal Rage with high-critical-damage weapons such as axes, hammers, scythes, bows and spears.
  • Since disabling a skill clears its adrenaline and disabled skills don't acquire adrenaline points, avoid bringing skills with a high adrenaline cost when putting this skill on your skill bar.
  • Instead of attack skills, focus on general buffs that affect multiple attacks, such as Conjure Flame, Signet of Strength, or Warrior's Cunning - these can be activated before triggering Primal Rage.
  • Way of Perfection can deliver significant healing for Warrior/Assassins when used in tandem with this skill.
  • This skill provides a significant critical hit boost for Assassin/Warriors with high Critical Strikes, even with 0 Strength. As such, it combines well with skills such as Critical Defenses.
  • By combining this skill with Judge's Insight your attacks will have 40% armor penetration.
  • The attack speed buff and bonus health regeneration from "I Will Avenge You!" combines wih Primal Rage very well.
  • Watch for warriors using Balanced Stance, as it will prevent the extra damage from your critical hits, thus reducing the effect of this skill.

Notes

The skill name probably refers to the old arcade game made by Atari called "Primal Rage".
