Barbarian Class Overview – Solasta 2
The Solasta II Barbarians are fierce warriors from the edge of civilization. Their battle rage makes them dangerous combatants.
Here is an overview of what your Barbarian can do at the start of the game in Solasta II:
- Weapon Proficiencies – Simple Weapons & Martial Weapons
- Armor Proficiencies – Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields
- Saving Throw Proficiencies – Strength, Constitution
- Skills – Any 2 from Animal Handling, Athletics, Intimidation, Nature, Perception and Survival
- Barbarian Actions:
- Rage – Enter a rage as a Bonus Action. Grants advantage on Strength Saves and Checks, +2 bonus to melee attack damage, resistance to slashing, bludgeoning and piercing damage. Rage lasts for 1 minute, or ends early if you haven’t attacked or been damage since your last turn. You get 2 rages per Long Rest.
- Barbarian Passives:
- Unarmoured Defence – When you’re not wearing armor, your armor class becomes (10 + Dexterity Modifier + Constitution Modifier). This benefit still applies if you’re using a Sheild.
Path of the Berserker Subclass – Solasta 2
The Path of the Berserker is a path of untrammeled fury, slick with blood. As you enter the berserker’s rage, you thrill in the chaos of battle, heedless of your own health or well-being.
Your Berserker subclass will grant you the following additional features as you level up.
Level 3
- Frenzy – You can go into a Frenzy when you Rage. If you do so, for the duration of your Rage, you can make an extra weapon attack each turn using a Bonus Action. When your Rage ends, you suffer one level of exhaustion unless you make a DC10 Constitution Saving Throw. The DC increases by 5 each time you use the extra attack during your Frenzy.
Level 6
- Mindless Rage – You can’t be Charmed or Frightened while Raging.
Level 10
- Intimidating Presence – Frighten a creature until the end of your next turn if it fails a Wisdom Saving Throw opposed by your Charisma.
Level 14
- Retaliation – Whenever an enemy attacks you from a nearby cell, you can use your Reaction to perform an immediate melee attack against that enemy.
