I was wondering if the 79 barb skills Violent Triumph and Untamed Wrath were tiger skills or human skills.
I like the looks of them but need this information as it will better help me to decide on grabbing them now or waiting till later.

    Both are human-form skills only. But that won't stop you from using violent triumph and pop straight-away into tiger form in order to get 10sec of antistun in tiger form.

    you got my reasoning perfectly lol.
    i spend 99.9% of my time in Tiger cept to buff.
    what about the Untamed is it worth it for another aggro skill?
    i already have the Roar, Sunder, Surf Impact, and Alpha Male (genie) but also run with a Mystic and Cleric normally, so need to get aggro from them if they take it. (am pure tank - not much damage)

    As said before, VT is your anti-stun skill. Use it then hop into tiger form for pulls.

    UW is a mediocre aggro skill but its main benefit is its range. It has a 15m range (Roar only has 12) and can be cast from 10m away. This means you can grab ranged mobs that keep kiting you as you try to run to roar at them, or of you miss some mobs with roar you can quickly UW and have them aggro before bringing them back to a cleric. Its decently safe to use in human form because of its stun, which means its a nice thing to follow an arma with while you get back to tiger form with its stun.

    Another benefit of UW is in pk for interrupting people's skills, since it has a 1 second stun, or as people try to kite away.
    Seven 100+ characters leveled the hard way. Free to play. Mystic, Psychic, and Wizard left to level. b:victory

    Untamed wrath is mostly convenient if your roar/alpha male is already on cooldown. The aggro generated from untamed wrath is very small but it is just enough to prevent healers from getting aggro. Ultimately, after using untamed wrath, you still need to follow up with some damage skills to keep and generate more long-term aggro.

    Untamed Wrath isn't really an effective tank-skill, more like an interupption-skill. Stuns nearby targets for 2 seconds and the cast time+channeling of it is like 1 sec each. It's more like a skill you'd use if a squad-member is in danger and you cast an aoe stun to help him/her out.
