ok i've heard a few times that powerdash raises crit strke rate but when i go to learn the actual skill itself it states rage damage. i'm just asking for clarity of whether it gets crit strike rate up cause rage dmg boost for 8 seconds seems pretty crappy to me personally. so if it's a glitch raising crit strike and still states rage then could somebody clear that up real quick like please.

    the description is wrong. Use wolf emblem to raise rage dmg, and powerdash to raise crit rate. Good skill not worth it to use alone IMO, but great after you spark.

    Power Dash increases critical hit chance, not damage. The description is wrong and also it will not display the increased chance, but it is there.

    Wolf Emblem + Spark (double or triple) + Inner Harmony + Power Dash = insane DPS for the next 10 seconds

    Power Dash without spark or Wolf Emblem = not worth it spark is so much better

    Like they said, it increases the rate.

    Just remember though, it's only really useful for Bosses (or AoE grinding I suppose), but be careful, it is extremely easy to steal aggro from a Barb doing this, even if you just use regular attacks till it's HP is halfway down. Like they said though, Wolf Emblem, Spark (double or triple), Powerdash, and even adding in Tangling Mire will give you incredible DPS. I've seen myself hit 15k on a Hybrid build doing this at 66. b:dirty

    Didn't get the rest of it, but apparently I am the "destroyer of sin haters" as well.
