I have played a barb
I looked around for a "Let's Play" for a barb.. and it looks like other people think like me.
If it's not special or fancy.. then it's not worthy.
Barb is boring, not at first.. but after a while.. the build up of the class.. the progression.. is just stale.
There are no benefits for the class that come with "Weapon Skill" other than the original M&B/w, like some script to do a whirlwind attack with chance on hit after getting 150 skill in 2handed weapons or something.
You know.. interesting stuff..
Instead you have to focus on healing During battle.. and getting that damage modifier..
When you look at it from a perspective of entertainment, you can see the potential of the "enrage after being hit" thing, to do more damage.
Then you need to build the character around that, it's not just a given property when in combat.
You can't block and gain the benefits, so you will be taking damage.. so you will be wanting a healer and healer ring glove, not those damage strength gloves.
So in some cases you lose potential of making your class how you want, based on how the game dictates how you need to play it.
Kinda like playing a Diablo 3 barbarian.. with the armor sets n such..
Eventually you are mixing other class's stuff into being a Barb.. because it feels like it's missing stuff.
If you played a Barb.. without looking for multi-class-purpose spells or items, my hats off to you, but i found it limited to a quick class edition with nothing else going for it.
