[QUOTE="Merlion, post: 2666013, member: 10397"] This isnt a "sweet spot" for the Barbarian. These are examples of areas where they might be at a slight disadvantage. Only really the first one though...I dont think even Combat Expertise would really be enough to outlast anything. The Barbarian is still going to hit...a lot...and do a lot of damage. As for the ranged thing...well first I cant really think of a lot of circumstances where ranged combat would really be the only option for any length of time. But even if it were...really the Barbarian isnt going to be any worse at shooting arrows than anyone else except someone who has really specialized in it, especially as far as anything other than shooting into melee. Now yea the Fighter may well have Rapid Shot etc and get a few more ranged attacks...but the Barb's rage bonuses can apply as well, so I dont see a huge advantage...and its a pretty rare circumstance I'd say.
