Thirst for Blood
"Mmm... yummy"
Thirst for Blood is a Barbarian power: the 1st of the Two Handed Mastery discipline.
 The barbarian channels all her fury. Normal attacks receive a damage bonus that increments on every successful impact. Power wears off by duration and also when inflicting 5 successful blows. Evaded and blocked attacks are not counted toward power expiration.

Notes
Combined with Fulminating Thirst for Blood can be a devastating power. Even by itself, the Attack Speed boost and extra damage are nice for any Barbarian.
Note that only the damage bonus increases with each hit, not the attack speed.
In addition to Evaded and Blocked attacks, Critical Hits are also not counted towards the 5 hit limit. It is unknown whether this is intended or a bug. [1]
