A Barbarian activates his rage, uses his HP to soak up the attacks, and then just wades into your center line, knowing he'll be able to reach you with his axe before your hundred warriors can cut him down with their hundred swords....From the primal source, they gain the speed of the cheetah, the power of a lion, the cunning of a fox...Think about how most predators in the wild take down their prey. They're not defending anything. They're stalking, using speed, using cunning, using sheer power to take down the weakest member of the herd with one savage leap.Sounds like a striker to me!But the rage is spot-on for that. I'm not a fan of the "save ends, -5 to the save" thing. I'd prefer to have the barbarian just be able to *end* his rage. Requiring a save sounds too iffy for something that should be the meat-and-potatoes of the class.</blockquote>
