Battle Command

Battle Command is a Skill in Diablo II.

Lore
''Using this skill a Barbarian can examine the abilities of his companions and, during battle, determine how best the group should apply their various skills. It is this skill as well as their natural abilities as leaders that are gradually shedding the long held stereotype that the Barbarian people are merely ignorant savages.''

Synergies

 * Gives synergy to:
 * +5 Seconds Per Level
 * Battle Orders: +5 Seconds Per Level
 * Receives synergy from:
 * +5 Seconds Per Level
 * Battle Orders: +5 Seconds Per Level

Battle Command benefits all those affected by increasing all their skills by one. Placing additional points into Battle Commands only lengthens its duration.

Increased skill levels benefits any class, and Battle Command is arguably the most useful of all Warcries. Battle Orders, with its large increases to Mana and Life, is sometimes more useful in dangerous situations.

Casting Battle Command while the Barbarian is under its effect (i.e. recasting after the first cast) makes it benefit from itself, giving an additional duration bonus. This is also true for other beneficial warcries - Battle Command should be cast first (twice), then other Warcries.

Note that the durations in the table may seem deceptive, as the synergies with and Battle Orders increase its duration by at least 10 seconds.
