The Barbarian is perhaps the most balanced class, mixing large amount of damage with great defensive. Classes like the Wizard and Demon Hunter prevail in heavy damage, while the Monk and the Witch Doctor are best known for their supportive aspects and crowd control respectively.įor more help on Diablo 3 Builds, read our Wizard Builds, Demon Hunter Builds and Witch Doctor Builds Guide.
Now things have changed though, and there’s more emphasis on the Barbarian being a ‘tank’ rather than a super-heavy damage dealer.Īs things have change, so has everyone’s approach to how the play each class.
Prior to the 1.0.08 patch, the Barbarian was easily the strongest character and also the beefiest, making him/her a bit OP.
It’s a class that’s easy to start with, develops well, and has well-tuned skills that makes it overall very well balanced. The Barbarian is hands down my personal favorite class in Diablo 3.
