 Counting Combat Mastery, Frenzy has 4 synergy skills: Mastery, Taunt, Double Swing and Berserk.
-The first point in your weapon's Mastery gives a 25% bonus to physical damage, 28% bonus to AR, and a 3% chance for Critical Strike. Each additional skill point adds 5% to the damage bonus, 8% to AR and diminishing additional chances for Critical Strike. The full table [http://www.battle.net/diablo2exp/skills/barbarian-combatmasteries.shtml is here].

 The synergy effect of Taunt gives an 8% bonus to physical damage for each skill point invested. Points in Double Swing give exactly the same synergy bonus.

 Because IAS on just one of your weapons applies to every Frenzy attack, it can be useful knowing which one the game counts and which weapon gets ignored. There has been a surprising amount of misunderstanding on this score, and it stems in large part from how the speed formula presents itself.

+The Frenzy speed formula [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/84318-frenzy-speed/ is here].
 It describes a calculation that considers “right hand” weapon IAS, and ignores IAS on the “left hand” weapon. Naturally, people wonder whether the “right hand” weapon is the one equipped on the left or right side of the inventory screen. That's where the misunderstandings arise. Frequently the “right hand” weapon has nothing to do with which weapon is on which side of the inventory screen. The rules for which weapon counts as the “right hand” weapon are more complicated than that.

 For Single Player, you can hide many weaknesses with advanced play skills. Indeed, one of the attractions of the Frenzy barb is that he takes skill to play, when so many other builds are all about uber gear and little else.
