↖ Basics of Battle Trance Amulets

With recent changes in the game, Battle Trance delivers on resistance, as it can roll either sacred or ancestral.

It is a unique amulet that can roll either sacred or ancestral, making it extremely versatile.

For maximum resistance, look for Battle Trances with high item power, which cap at a respectable 28.5.

 

 

↖ Maximum Fury and Maximum Stacks

With this amulet, you get a maximum Fury bonus between 5 and 14.

If you're running a maximum Fury build, like Ramaladni does, try for the 14 maximum Fury stat.

It is possible to farm Radney U and Gregor for Battle Trances, so get as many Bor kills as possible to improve your chances.

 

↖ Reduction of damage and cooldown:

In addition, Battle Trance offers a significant 13.9% damage reduction from close enemies, however, this modifier varies from 10.3% to 20.2%, so you need to keep farming until you find the one that offers the maximum reduction.

The cooldown reduction also ranges between 6.2% and 10.3%, but you can always aim for that sweet 10.3% if you're patient enough.

 

↖ Rankings for Frenzy

Battle Trance offers a significant bonus to Frenzy, which is one of its most impressive features.

When equipped with Battle Trance, you can transform your Frenzy Barbarian from a mere level 5 to a formidable level 14 Frenzy warrior.

It grants up to nine ranks of Frenzy, greatly increasing their effectiveness.

 

↖ Suggestions and secondary effects

It increases Frenzy's maximum stacks by two, but it's a little underwhelming in terms of the secondary effect.

It increases attack speed by 35% to 45% when you reach maximum Frenzy stacks.

For most Barbarians, Frenzy is the primary skill, so the secondary effect does not directly impact it.

Blizzard, take note—many players would love for that increased attack speed to also apply to Frenzy.

 

↖ Damage Reduction and Additional Stacks

It is also worth noting that it increases stack capacity by two, which is a significant bonus.

In conjunction with Combat Frenzy, it grants 8% damage reduction.

By maxing out your stacks, you can achieve a 40% damage reduction.

That's a significant increase in your survivability.

 

↖ Attack Speed and Berserking

Alternatively, if you prefer Berserking, the additional stacks mean that your other skills gain 5% increased attack speed for each stack of Frenzy.

This bonus isn't as useful as it sounds because its duration is so short. It only lasts for 3 seconds, so its effectiveness is limited.

 

↖ Improvements suggested

It would be great if Frenzy stacks degenerated slowly rather than all at once, as a suggestion to Blizzard.

For example, they could decrease by one tier every 2 seconds, allowing players to maintain their stacks more efficiently.

The Berserking bonus and other skills could become more valuable as a result of this change.

 

↖ In conclusion

In summary, Battle Trance is a must-have for Frenzy Barbarians in Diablo 4. It has excellent stats, bonus ranks to Frenzy, and added maximum stacks. Even though the secondary effect could be improved, this amulet can increase damage reduction and attack speed, making it an excellent addition to any build.
