Barbarian
Barbarians are the tank class. The primary role of the Barbarian is to take the damage of the enemy, so others can deal damage without being attacked. Without a Barbarian at the front, the party often dies very quickly. But don't be fooled, Barbarians are a lot more than punching bags. Due to their high HP and brute force, they are more than able to handle themselves and are also among the best PvPers late game. Barbarians also have the added bonus of being able to turn into tigers, which increases their HP and movement speed.

Barbarian Armor
Barbarians need the best armor to keep the enemy at bay, only Heavy Armor will do here. Socketing the armor with magical gems (sapphires) is the only way to go as magic defense is their only weakness. Barbarians go with either more damage or more HP, therefore they need Strength or Vitality stats. Some Dexterity points are needed too for accuracy.
Barbarian in PvP
The more a Barbarian levels, the stronger he gets. They can hold their own pretty much the whole game, but they only really step into PvP territory at mid levels. Increasing in both damage and defense, at late levels, they become almost impossible to kill one vs. one. The only enemy Barbarians really need to fear then are Wizards, but even they can have a hard time killing Barbarians without backup. Barbarians never fight in tiger-form (unless they have the Demon 'True Form' skill book at level 89), as it reduces their damage.
Barbarian in PvE
PvE as a Barbarian has both its good and bad side. A Barbarian can be very slow to level, at low levels, because he lacks accuracy. The Barbarian is also not a good fighter against magical attack mobs due to his low magical defense. However in a party for FB or a boss fight, the Barbarian is invaluable. A Barbarian's job in a party is simply to take damage and make sure that only he takes damage. To help with this the Barbarian have two skills (Flesh Ream and Roar) that can draw the attention of the enemy to him, instead of the rest of the party.
Barbarian in Territory Wars
The Barbarian's role in Territory Wars is different from others. Rather than running around killing, most of the Barbarians act as catapult carriers. This is an important task, as most of the damage to the enemy comes from the catapults and are vital in order to win. As attacker the Barbarians can be a great force, mostly thanks to their hard hitting AoE skills (Armageddon and Sunder). This also means they are usually ganged up on and killed quickly, before they can do to much harm.
