Critical Rage

Does Critical Rage require you to be in Barbarian Rage? or just raged (i.e. rage spell/pot)?

Anything in the barb trees which says "while Raging" means using barb Rage, not the spell. It may also include using the barb PL feat (http://ddowiki.com/page/Past_Life:_Berserker%27s_Fury), however that no longer stacks w/barb Rage, so not much incentive to taking it on a barb anymore, IMHO.

What about Skaldic Rage? Did anyone check it?

Skaldic Rage counts as a Rage effect for the purposes of Fury of the Wild (tunnel vison and such), but not for things like Power Rage and Hardy Rage.

So I think it doesn't count for Critical Rage.

It also currently still stacks with barbarian Rage which it shouldn't, so I believe things may yet change...
We'll see where it ends up.
