Pound of Flesh

Pound of Flesh is one of the first two passive skills of Diablo III to be unlocked, doing so along with the first passive skill slot and Ruthless at level 10.

Trivia

 * The idea of a "pound of flesh" may harken to The Merchant of Venice.

Development
Originally, this skill used to increase the Health Globe effect on the Barbarian. The bonus applied after all other effects that bolster Health Globes, but only affected their healing (Reaper's Wraps wouldn't get any extra resource recovery), and did not change any related stats.
