[edit] Usage

Increased Speed is a passive skill of the Barbarian, thus constantly in effect once learned. This type of skills does not use mana in any moment. The skill makes the Barbarian faster, when walking or running. Augmenting this skill also increases the speed percentage gained by the Barbarian. With every level earned, the speed bonus is smaller, so the best option is to increase this skill no more than two or three levels, excepting the bonuses given by special items such as Barbarian Helms or Unique Items.

[edit] History

It is a fatal assumption that the Barbarian warrior is slow and ponderous. His great bulk belies a very agile individual. A lifetime of patrolling the vast plains of his native soil, where it is often necessary to cover great distances in very little time, has empowered the Barbarian warriors with the ability to walk and run at surprising rates of speed.
