Diablo – How to most effectively generate Fury

diablo-3diablo-3-barbarian

Each of the Barbarian primary abilities generate "X Fury per attack". Fury is then used by the secondary abilities, and if you mash the right mouse button like me your beefy Man or woMan will soon be reminding you gruffly about his or her lack of anger with the minions of Hell.

Since it is essential to maintain my Barbarian's disgruntled state, what strategy can I use to best maximize Fury? Does it only come down to each left mouse click? Do I get more for hitting monsters in groups? Does taking damage increase my rage? Should I pattern my use of primary and secondary attacks (P+P+S, P+P+P+S, etc). What is the best strategy?

Based on your skill choices and the way that you are dealing your damage you may not need as much Fury as you think. Personally, most of my damage output comes from Cleave and I seldomly am spending fury anyway. However, if you find that your Fury is frequently low there are ways to beef up the generation. There are several runestones that help fury re-generation. Your bread and butter Fury generation is obviously going to come from your Fury Generating skills.

Fury Generating Abilities:

Bash with Unleashed - Generates 7 extra fury per attack.

Cleave with Reaping Swing - Generates 1 extra fury per enemy hit (max 7)

Ground Stomp with Foot of the Mountain - Increase Fury gained to 43 fury per stomp.

War Cry with Charge - Generates 51 fury when used.

Furious Charge with Stamina - Gains additional 8 fury for every target hit while charging.

Ancient Spear with Skirmish - Increase Fury gain to 38.

Fury Spenders:
