Barbarians will always have their place in the game.

How else would rogues find random traps without barbarian soulstones marking them?

Why does the thread topic says Bard then?

Backpack?

How'd you guess? 

is there any way to use 5 levels of Barb to increase the DPS of a DPS build? Or is that impossible because you don't get monk?

There looks to be some good damage in FB

Also wondering about this.... haven't seen any BF barbarians running around though. Just the LR + alignment change is enough to keep me away from that idea lol

Go for it and give us some feedback.

woops, I ment to say barb in the title :3  oh well, post count awayyyyyyyyy

Just build barbarians well.

Not every barbarian is a Shade barbarian who can do AWESOMZERS!!!1!1!!! dps if, and only if, the 11 other people in the raid are supporting him and not doing anything else.


And even though I loath most barbarian players - I have a barbarian, too. She's a halfling. Acrobat.

My Acrobarbling.

The squeak they make while raging is absolutely awesome.
The huge hate generation is an extra bonus.

Good to know, now to test if that stacks with pulverizer in LD tree    that'd be very nice.

Pulveriser used to act like the kensai tree and give 2 additional crit ranges instead of one if you got imp crit bludgeoning.

I'm interested to see how and if they stack....I'll roll a barb and see what crit range I get.

Another interesting idea would to just use a falcion, and get a 15-20 range with a x3   I guess we'll see....that would be nice though, since none of the thunderforged items have an increased crit range/multiplier

I tried. 12 fighter/6 barb/2 druid (for doublestrike action boost. it sucks because you can't use DS and haste boost at the same time) and the dps is still pretty meh. I mean it's great I can hit 76 str, but my stunning blow still sucks. My centered Mornh guy does more damage. Hell I think my rogue/ranger/monk does more damage with celestias. Smaller crits, but way more often. Plus lightsabres.

I could switch the druid over to FvS or Cleric for divine might and it could help, but being raged means you have to chug SF pots to heal. Which sucks. I was using the axe from CITW to pair with that tier 6 axe thing in LD. Still not worth it. I'm trying to decide what to do with him. He has an eSOS in the bank, but I wanted to try the axe thing. Maybe someone better than me at building could do something with it. Or I could try harder. We'll see. But as of right now, you're better off going another way than barb.
