I am tired of trying to play barbarian in diablo games they always make them weak and just not fun to play. Even in beta it was noticed by many I was hoping it’d be fixed by launch. But I am still struggling on tier 2 it was going ok at first but now I can’t even beat certain bosses because they are extremely anti melee and barbarians attacks are so weak for some reason. Blizzard has always made barb feel weak it’s never been just decent it’s either overpowered so they nerf it into the ground or so weak it’s not fun to play. I hope they balance it soon because I want to play barb but this is just ridiculous.

Same issue, enjoyed the barb in the 1st beta, but just not fun now. Comparing my stats to the beta, it looks like they massively nerfed the strength. a 20% buff to strength would probably do the trick.
Yeah me too, the exact same thing.
I chose ‘Veteran’ difficult. Boy that was a mistake.
I thought this was supposed to an ACTION rpg. These fights feel more like WoW or EverQuest.
Same issue. Barbarians are super squishy and not fun to play at low level. I could have sword a saw a post from Blizzardf saying that they had addressed this issue after complaints during the first open beta, apparently they haven’t.

I think barbarians starts off weak then becomes very strong towards the end. Like the traditional fighter classes in games they are gear dependent. Imagine once you get four legendaries on those 4 weapon slots. All those legendary stats and buffs will make barbs so strong in the end.
I thought I was the only one who thinks that Barbarian is so underpowered but it turns out everyone feels the same. For a solo player, Barb is very unenjoyable especially in early game, lack of damage and defense, and some bosses are like anti-melee which is a nightmare for Barbarian
