QuestAway - Barbarian (Class)

THE BARBARIAN

He has no middle setting. He hits harder than anyone else in the roster and he can soak up a horde long enough to walk out the far side of it, but never in the same build.

FOUR BRANCHES OF ACTIVE SKILLS

Fury feeds on the fight: the longer he stays in it, the worse he gets to be near. Brutality is the blow that opens the enemy up. Savagery is what is left when he stops holding back. Survival is what keeps him upright long enough for the other three to happen. You decide which ones he takes into battle, and that is what makes the tree a decision instead of a shopping list.

THE CHOICE THAT DEFINES HIM

His two keystones rule each other out: you take one or the other, never both. One gives up his guard entirely and buys damage with it. The other turns him into an obstacle the enemy has to bring down before reaching anyone else in the party. The passives around them pull one way or the other, and the axes in his hands follow the decision.

WEAPON AND OFF-HAND, ALL THE WAY UP

He fights with an axe in each hand, and both climb the material ladder with him: they start as plain wood and end as something that should not exist.

THE UNLOCK IS PERMANENT

The unlock is permanent and lives on your account: he slots into any position in the party, on any difficulty, for good. There is no gold path to him inside the game, so this is the only way to have him, and none of the free classes were touched to make room for him.
