Twink:

hey guys, we realize we tuned Barbs to be really weak during the PTR, and we didn’t do any compensatory buffs to them despite all the feedback from testing showing that Barbs were super weak. Well, just like we did at season 8 launch, we’re SLIGHTLY but not significantly (except hota I guess?) buffing the Barb Core skills. They’re still junk. You still won’t clear pit 100 with them. They still deal like 1/5 the dmg of Pulverize or even other Barbarian Basic skills, not to mention are like 40x weaker than Hydra Sorc. And so, we conclude that all things are now #balanced.” -D4 devs

Man, they could just 2x Barb Core skills one of these patches and they’d STILL be too weak lol. But instead, we get these 20-30% buffs when what we need is 300% (4x) increase, not 30%… (1.3x)…

I saw those Barb buffs and just started laughing.

Those skills are trash
