If a barbarian has good Strength and Con, then they don't have much room left over for Dexterity, so their AC isn't going to break 20 anytime soon. Subpar AC, combined with advantage on all incoming attacks, and that's the formula for being targeted.As far as the enemies are concerned, the barbarian might not be immortal. At least you're actually hitting and dealing damage to the barbarian. Nobody can just keep taking hits forever, right? Neither the paladin nor the barbarian are actually invincible, but the barbarian at least appears to be getting hurt. I guess some of that might come down to how you describe damage, which is expected to vary between tables; but all of my experience across multiple tables and editions is in agreement that you know whether or not you hit or miss, and whether or not the damage from a successful attack was resisted.</blockquote>
