It wouldn't have rage but would get bonus damage with simple weapons and increased AC with light and medium armor. Powersource wise, it is a Martial class with no overt magic outside of subclass spiritualism to give some Primal or Divine noncombat stuff.The Berserker is the rage fiend. Gone is Unarmored defense for more rage and more of a power up. Their rage would be so transformative than it would be either blatantly magical or at least convince most that it isn't normal at all. Powersource wise it would be a Primal class with rages being big effects mechanically and visibly. Some subclasses like the Wild Soul might drip into the Arcane and the Divine.Barbarians subclasses would beThe BruteThe ChieftainThe Wild ManThe Horse NomadThe HurlerThe WhirlerThe Totem WarriorBerserker subclasses would beThe BerserkerThe StormbornThe Wild SoulThe HowlerThe <s>Chaos Champion</s> ZealotThe BeastTLDR, The Barbarian can stay as the name but it would have to split for the Berserker mechanics and flavor.</blockquote>
