I'm not sure how well a Halfling would do with that type of Barbarian. The bonus attack from that spiked armor is keyed off your Strength modifier, and as a Halfling you're going to be more Dex-inclined. I think a Totem Warrior Barbarian however is a totally viable build for a Halfling that could be a lot of fun. You won't make full use of all the Rage benefits(since some of them key off Strength), you'd mostly be using it for the damage resistance. But the advantage on Dex saves that you gain at level 2 will be awesome, the extra movement at level 5 will make up for your 25' normal movement speed(you'll never be in heavy armor), and at level 7 your Initiative rolls are going to be excellent. And let's not forget that with Unarmored Defense, there's a good chance you could be sporting an AC of 18 at level 1 if you're carrying a shield. The Berserker path is also viable, though I think the Totem path has some options that are really good for tanking, and the idea of a Halfling being the party's damage sponge is just incredibly amusing to me. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
