[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9004803, member: 7006"] Must be a table issue. Because the Bear Totem Barb at my table pretty much soaks anything and everything I throw at him. In any other party make-up I wouldn't be building my encounters the way I do because I wouldn't be seeing half to three-quarters of all the HP damage I do getting absorbed by this one character. The Barb doesn't need Bear Totem to survive, he would survive quite well even without it-- the Bear Totem just adds to the character's mystique (which is great for his mythic destiny in my Theros game, which is why I can't get too annoyed.) But maybe other DMs just use spellcasters in their encounters more than I do that it makes it seem like all Barbarians need to resist virtually all damage? But even so... every Barbarian taking quarter-damage on all saving throw attacks (since the damage spells are usually DEX and CON, which I see the Barbarian PC tends to easily make)? Seems like overkill to me personally. [/QUOTE]
