	: ~~Most people go for a base of 49 for the most common~~ endgame weapon: ~~Calloused~~ Lionheart ~~Hatchets~~ (~~found at South Archosaur forges~~). At level 100, depending on how you play, with all of your endgame gear, you can choose to go with ~~either 60~~ Dexterity (recommended for the little extra critical hit rate and accuracy/evasion) ~~or 80 (depends~~ on your play style, this is more viable with higher refined gears, since you can afford a few less Hit Points). There is no real need to add a certain amount of Dexterity per level.		: The DEX required will depend on what your endgame weapon and Armor will be: Overlord Battleaxe (R9 Axes) required DEX = 60 and R9 armor DEX = 55 or if you want one of the Level 100 TT or Lunar weapons like the Unicorn's Tragedy (T3 Axes) which requires DEX = 52 with HA Awakened Lionheart Armor requiring DEX = 54, Maybe even the Halberd of the King: Eon (Rank VIII) required DEX = 50 with Rank VIII armor which does not seem to indicate a DEX requirement.
			At level 100, depending on how you play, with all of your endgame gear, you can choose to go with more Dexterity (recommended for the little extra critical hit rate and accuracy/evasion) depending on your play style, this is more viable with higher refined gears, since you can afford a few less Hit Points. There is no real need to add a certain amount of Dexterity per level.

	As I have said, this build is not the best for barbarians, as a Previous STR/DEX barbarian for PK (player killing), I have to say I enjoy Vitality a lot more and my damage wasn't gimped as much as I thought it would be. If you want high damage output as a melee class with decent HP, go roll a medium Vitality blademaster.

	As I have said, this build is not the best for Barbarians, as a Previous STR/DEX Barbarian for PK (player killing), I have to say I enjoy Vitality a lot more, and my damage wasn't gimped as much as I thought it would be. If you want high damage output as a melee class with decent HP go roll a medium Vitality Blademaster.

	'''~~TANK~~/~~VITALITY BUILD~~'''		'''Tank/Vitality Build'''


	This is the traditional, and honestly the most effective ~~barbarian~~ build, both PvP and PvE wise. The high HP will give you more survivability in general, which is much more effective than a couple extra ~~Str~~ points, which is considered the "PvP" build, but since you have a 75% damage reduction in PvP, ~~str~~ is essentially useless.

	'''~~STRENGTH~~:''' You want 3 ~~strength~~ per level. This is a must. Every single level you add 3 ~~strength~~, no more, no less.		'''Strength (STR):''' You want 3 Strength per level. This is a must. Every single level you add 3 Strength, no more, no less.

	'''~~DEXTERITY~~:''' ~~MOST~~ people go for a base of 49 for the most common endgame weapon. Calloused Lionheart Hatchets(~~you~~ can find these in the ~~southern archosaur~~ forges). At level 100, depending on how you play, with all of your endgame gear, you can choose to go with either 60 ~~dexterity~~ (~~recommended~~ for the little extra ~~crit~~ and ~~acc~~/~~evasion~~) or 80 (~~depends~~ on your play style, this is more viable with higher refined gears, since you can afford to lose a little bit of ~~health~~ points). There is no real need to add a certain amount of ~~dex~~ per level. ~~with~~ my own ~~barb~~, I decided to get my end game required ~~dex~~ by level 60~~. Its~~ up to you.

There is no real need to add a certain amount of Dexterity per level. With my own Barbarian, I decided to get my end game required Dexterity by level 60, it is up to you.

	'''Vitality:''' Your most important ~~Stat Point~~ as a tank ~~barbarian~~. Every extra stat point you have you dump here. Eventually, once your ~~dexterity~~ is at where you want, you will be adding 2 ~~vitality~~ and 3 ~~strength~~ every level.		'''Vitality (VIT):''' Your most important stat point as a tank Barbarian.
