Which ENH would be better?

[Kaldaka]

OK, my level 10 barb build is coming along nicely. Just tore Velah a new one last night ....

I have a question tho, my action points are limited, of course, and I find that I can either go Extra Rage III or Extend Rage III and would have to go II for the other one. My question is, which would be more worth it, having one extra rage per rest or having each rage last slightly longer? Or is it a toss-up?

Thanks

EXTEND

I vote extra rage instead of extend...

There's plenty of times where the party will be waiting around and you'll watch your rage timer tick away... better to have more than longer. My opinion only.

Extend Rage.

[Vua]

We seem to be split on the subject here. I vote both.

its pretty simple ... extend...i never run out of rages... and i only have 6 that last 3 minutes....you hit rage when the fights begin...and you probably will not run out of them...if you do your not being efficient ...especially with all the shrines in the game

extra rages

but once u get a few more levels under your belt, you'll have more natural rages, and more con, so drop both down to level 2 of each

7 rages of 3 minutes each is more than enough for just about anything

I'd say extra is better because it gives you more flexibility (you can choose when to take this extra time). But it also requires more management on your side (= clicking rage more often).

[Kraldor]

Until you're hitting the higher levels, you're really only using Rage at major fights, which come close to as often as shrines do. It's better to rely on your rage lasting longer for the length of one fight, rather than splitting it up and possibly having to get rid of your fatigue and reapply your rage.

Extra.

Does it help that the toon is a dwarf with a nice CON score?

I guess if he was warforged Extra would work much better ... i.e. no fatigue and all. But being a dwarf, he would have to drink the lesser restore pot (or in my case use one of my 8 clickies LOL). So in that case, Extend might be better.

Sounds almost like a toss-up to me.

Note that we're talking about a level 10 (TEN) barbarian here... He won't fighting any red-named pit fiends for 10 minutes at a time for a while.

At his level, he should probably grab extra first then extend next when he gets the APs... or vice-versa... doesn't really matter...

Not EVERYTHING is end-game, people...

OP, just ask yourself this... Do you run out of rages now?? If so, take extra... if not, take extend (or maybe something else). It's easy enough to respec APs after all.

well considering we rolled the toons about the same week and ran our toons to 8 together..... mine has been 16 for a month...if he would get off his lowbies...and run a few quests...he wouldnt have to be asking about ap points spent at lvl 10....get to work indarae...your slacking..and your 13 shroud completions behind and counting...

get to work

LMFAO junior ...

Why do you think I did the whole VONs 1-6 this past week, talk about some sick XP!!!

He's 14K from 11 and barely touched Gianthold ...

He'll be there soon enough.

And yes junior, I will follow your advice. I don't wanna be a muppet

Well ... I actually was talking end game regarding this enhancement

Yep go extend. Get madstone boots and use prior to barb rage for even longer rages Mine are about 4 minutes long. much better to have 6 4:25 minute rages than 7 3:00 rages. Just the pain of going back through the process more often...
