Barbarian are freaking BROKEN

[BipolarMethod]

Im a cleric getting PISSED off with the fighting dynamic between me and barbarians. If im going in with base commons and uncommons. Any barbarian with equal or worse gear can absolutely wale me. With what takes me like 30 seconds to start popping my spells, hes already used rage and two tapped me. they get 3 perks in under 3 seconds where i have to wait using my spells. At that point they already have closed distance.

You are playing a Cleric solo I assume? I can see how you may find that situation frustrating, but please consider this; you are the healer class. Barbarian is the not very defensive, big damage class. Personally, I would find it rather silly for the healer to consistently fight on even ground with the berserker. Inherently, your role is weak alone, and powerful in a party that covers you.

Barbarian is pretty busted tbh, i tried it run after run and i could faceroll people one after the other while not even being full health. I just pop my cooldowns and melee spam till i win.

All other classes have to put more effort, skill, tactics, and counterplay to win fights.

I just bonk till they die.

This, thank you.

Barbarian is a 1 trick pony pretty much. They have no range (other than throwables). They hit hard and have a lot of health. They have low physical resistance usually, they have high magic resist. Each class has it's counters.

The biggest trick to fighting a barb is to outrun their screams. When they pop both of them they become stupid strong, but once they are on cooldown they are a lot easier to kill. That's the time to engage. Sadly a cleric in cloth armor is very weak to physical damage. You need to play a cat and mouse game. If you see one you need to get your buff spells off before they get on you. Bait their swings, by blocking or dodging then when they are recovering you hit them.

People not understanding how to counter the class doesn't make them busted. See above for how to counter a barb

Oh we understand how to counter barb, just dont play X classes, dont get close ever, and pray he misses.

Tbh a class that has to make the minimun effort to win, and all the effort is put on the other classes to win, is indeed in dire need of some balancing.

What this guy said and I recommend playing the warlock(still very hard solo)or the rogue.

Don't cleric have a slow? Use it when they rage then run.

Warlock is prob the easiest class in this game since they can just kite and spam curse of pain lol.

yea they really gotta do something about that. really not fun to play against. getting cursed and then having the guy just run away and repeat. Really not fun if you play one of the slower classes. but it sadly works against every class since warlock is decently fast when paired with the right equipment and they place a hydra in your path. So you cant chase them and you cant run away. really a lose-lose situation a lot of the time.

Yup only thing more broken is prob a geared druid 1-3 shot you no matter what and just engage and disengage at will and can't even be killed cause of dreamwalk unless they are really bad lol.

Yeah and many peoples say spear druids or bear druids are useless.

Rock beats scissors. Nuff said. You'll own them on a fighter if you can dodge a few of their swings (evenly geared of course) just make sure no matter what you run your spood boost so you can bait and dodge swings without relying on a shield.

[Kangaroo Salesman]

Considering Barbarian is the strongest in your face melee class and cleric isn't. That's kinda rock paper scissors for ya.

[Grahf]

Yea cleric felt useless alone when I tried it super slow attacks and quite low movement speed lol.
