Barbarian: Difference between revisions

'''Sorrow.''' You tap into a deep sadness within you. You gain Resistance to Radiant, Cold, and Psychic Damage, as your body becomes disconnected and senseless. Whenever you take damage that you are resistant to, you can use your Reaction to reduce the damage that you take by 3. This damage reduction is applied after you calculate resistance. This damage reduction increases to 4 at 9th level and 5 at 16th level.<br>

'''Fury.''' You sharpen the mindless anger of a normal rage to focus your anger to a sharpened point. You gain Resistance to Poison, Acid, and Necrotic damage, as your fury burns corrupting forces from your body. Additionally, your additional rage damage is equal to double your Proficiency bonus, instead of your Proficiency.<br>

'''Joy.''' You are overtaken by giddy excitement in the rush of battle. You gain resistance to Force, Fire, and Lightning damage, as your own energy burns as hot as magical force. Additionally, your movement speed increases by 5 feet. This additional movement speed increases to 10 feet at 9th level and to 15 feet at 16th level. This movement speed is in addition to the movement speed increase granted by Fast Movement.

The emotional energy within you begins to suffuse your weapons. While you are raging and in an Emotional State, you may cause any weapon attacks you make to deal one of the damage types that your chosen Emotional State grants you resistance to, rather than the weapon’s usual damage.<br>

When you choose to deal one of these damage types, you may treat any 1 on a damage die as a 2.

You gain the ability to absorb the emotions from your allies and enemies alike. You learn the Calm Emotions spell and use your Constitution for your spellcasting ability<br>

You can cast this spell a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

When you enter an Emotional State, you can cast this spell as part of the same bonus action, expending one use of this ability. You can not lose concentration on this spell due to entering your rage. However, you can still lose concentration by other methods, such as failing a saving throw to maintain concentration or becoming incapacitated.

You can release your pent-up emotions in a single burst. When you hit with an attack affected by your Ardent Strikes ability, you can choose to immediately end your rage. If you do so, the attack immediately deals an additional 3d12 damage of the chosen damage type.<br>

Once you have used this ability, you cannot enter the Emotional State that you were in when you used this ability until you finish a long rest.
