Description

Barbarians are truly masters of close combat and they fully rely on physical power. Most of their battle skills are based on the use of such arms as one handed axes and maces, as well as much larger waraxes and battlehammers. Barbarians are excelent innitiators, breaking through enemies' ranks with one lunge and striking fear into their enemies with their warcries.

I am not a high level barb but on all mobs i have tried Roar on it only takes 2 points from the damage at level one. Again realize i am lvl 5.

[Ikafati 148]

Level 1 Roar reduces 8% of the damage. Since level 4-6 mobs deal 15-30 damage, 2 points of damage reduction is completely normal

[Kings007 5]

nice guide but which 2 skills is most useful for a PvP/tank barb

[Ikafati 148]

I'll test the Stone Skin and post data when it's out, but it may take a while since the skill seems to have a lot of math and stuff

[Gladiator 1171]

Stone skin 80%!!! dam barbs

[XwarlordX 91]

[XwarlordX 91]

10. Last Wish

For a certain period of time Barbarian's health points cannot be reduced below 1. The skill automatically actives when your HP is brought down to ~15% (Note: even though you'll have 1 health point, enemies will still deal full damage and will be able to lifesteal off of you fully. The skill activation does hinder your auto attacks or other actions)

Duration - 3/4/5/6 seconds
Cooldown - 90 seconds

first level skill Duration 4 second.

[Jzargo 256]

In my experience elusive threat can kill barb even they under last wish buff, need someone to confirm it.

[benjaminbt 324]

Even a critical hit can eliminate the Last Wish skill. No need for that specific skill.

[Maleshaman 15]

The two comments above are correct.

Elusive can kill you when Last wish is active and you can bypass the activation by doing more damage than when it triggers.

[Gladiator 1171]

Wow so Barb's shield strike increases stun duration for leveling up but Paladin's stays 2 seconds for all levels? How is that fair.

[ColdFootedMole 29]

Wow, this is incredibly helpful! thanks a million

[Makyro 45]

Wow so Barb's shield strike increases stun duration for leveling up but Paladin's stays 2 seconds for all levels? How is that fair.

 

But the paladins "shield strike" has 100% chance to stun, or not?

[Gladiator 1171]

I'd trade that for 75% chance to get 5 secs stun and 4 secs less cooldown.

I'd say it's a matter of personal preference - Strong Blow deals instantaneous damage, while Chop's damage is continuous, so it depends whether you like wearing your opponents down slowly or just cave their face in instantly. Also, I think that 1% difference is pretty much meaningless

Edited October 14, 2016 by Ikafati

[Jzargo 256]

Barbarian ignores debuffs and effects of control for some time. As the skill is upgraded, its duration increases.

 

-this skill also resist banner?

-is it resist AoE damage skill or resist any skill? can 1-target damage skill hit it?

-is there any animation when skill activated? if there was, it need to be changed like mage's one with flashy color

 

 

 

[Gladiator 1171]

I'm not even a Barb, but:

 

-It resists all debuffs; here it is resisting only the defense debuff from Banner. You might also a "resist", when you use Sun Seal, Shield Strike, or Illumination, that means it is resisting the life steal debuff, stun, and agro(I heard that it resists agro too), respectively.

-It doesn't resist any kind of instant damage, it just resists the debuff it the skill has damage+debuff effect.

-It has a small helmet that appears above the Barb as an animation and something like a chain as an icon.

 

May some Barb correct me if I'm wrong.

[Jzargo 256]

so banner still damaging barb? if yes, why not showing the damage instead showing 'resist' from def debuff?

and the animation was hard to see and dissapear instantly, it should be noticable like mage's one since it's annoying skill

If you play on small screen you don't know if the skill already activated or not.

If Barbarian Nature is active, there is an icon under barbarian's name, alongside other buffs. It looks like a chain you get in arena battles, except it's black and white

its not 1% dmg only , its 17% for blow vs (((18% X4 ))) for chop 

in my dmg that mean 120 dmg if lvling Blow , vs 100dmg x4 (400) if lvling chop

No need to take it to personal level.

If you disagree, just stick to the actual things that were said.

[Ninja 82]

Also Chop CD is 6 sec vs Blow 7 sec

So better lvl Chop if u want max DPS

Chop best vs bosses, but too slow for mobs, and never procs stun (and rage?) weapons
