Unstoppable Assault

At 3rd level, you gain access to a range of powerful assault abilities that you can choose from during combat. You have three charges that replenish after finishing a short or long rest. Each charge can be used to activate one of the following abilities as a bonus action:

• Quaking Leap: You perform a mighty leap into the air and crash down at a targeted location within 30 feet. All creatures within a 10-foot radius of the targeted location must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, they take 1d8 bludgeoning damage and are knocked prone. On a successful save, they take half damage and are not knocked prone. This ability's damage increases by 1d8 when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8)

• Hammer of the Ancients: You unleash a powerful strike with your weapon, dealing additional damage equal to your Barbarian level plus your Strength modifier. If you are raging, the additional damage is doubled.

• Furious Charge: You charge in a straight line up to your movement speed. During this charge, you can move through the space of creatures, and each creature you move through takes damage equal to your Barbarian level plus your Strength modifier. If the creature is your size or smaller, it must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is knocked back 10ft. On a successful save, it is not knocked back. If the creature is knocked into a barrier, it takes additional damage equal to your Strength modifier.

• Whirling Fury: You enter a whirling frenzy, spinning rapidly with your weapon extended. While in this state, you can move up to your movement speed without provoking opportunity attacks, and you can make one melee weapon attack against any creature that comes within 5 feet of you. This attack deals 1d8 + your Strength modifier in slashing damage.

Resilient

At 6th level, you gain enhanced resilience while using your assault abilities. Whenever you use Quaking Leap, Hammering Strike, Furious Charge, or Whirling Fury, you gain temporary hit points equal to your Constitution modifier plus your Barbarian level. These temporary hit points last until the end of your next turn.

Presence of the Nephalem

Starting at 10th level, your presence becomes overwhelming as you unleash your devastating assaults. Whenever you use Quaking Leap, Hammering Strike, Furious Charge, or Whirling Fury, all creatures within a 10-foot radius of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, they are frightened of you until the end of your next turn. On a successful save, they are not affected. Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before you can use it again.

Unrelenting

At 14th level, your mastery of annihilating attacks reaches its peak. While raging, whenever you use Quaking Leap, Hammering Strike, Furious Charge, or Whirling Fury, you can choose to combine it with another of the listed abilities to unleash a devastating combo. For example, you can charge into an enemy and strike them with a Hammer of the Ancients as they fly backward. This combo counts as a single use of Unstoppable Assault.
