Well, even though the change means that you'll take a lot more damage (depending on how they change the monsters), you'll be doing a lot more damage. The change helps zerker damage a whole lot, because speed of attack is far more important than armor-punching. Hunting is always going to be really hard for a zerker (find a heart and make him/her your best friend), but they should be a lot better in PvP.

FA could really use a boost. I know a lot of newbies get put off by having to sit there and script FA-- its really one of those skills that you HAVE to script in order to have a playable fighter/barb character.
