Rage (Boar)

This article is about the action used by Beastmaster boars. For the barbarian action, see Rage. For other uses, see Rage (disambiguation).

Rage is a bonus action gained by the Beast Master ranger's  Boar Companion at level 5. It allows the boar to enter a rage once per combat which grants bonus damage, resistance to physical damage, and the ability to make a bonus action attack for its duration.

Description

Go into a frenzy, increasing your size and becoming stronger through raw anger.

While raging, your melee attacks deal an additional 2+1d4⁠⁠Slashing^{[See Notes]} damage and you are  Enlarged^{[See Notes]}. You gain Resistance to physical damage, and  Advantage on Strength Checks and Saving Throws.

Available only in combat.
Rage ends early if you don't attack an enemy or take damage each turn.
You can't cast or concentrate on spells while raging.
