Possibly punchy barbarian.

>>50119894
> shouty bard-barbarian
But valor bard already exists.

>>50119715
I'm hoping for a sort of Charisma Barbarian, focused around leading allies and intimidating enemies. Sort of a Warlord type thing.

It'd also be neat to see one that's focused on using thrown weapons, or at least has some benefits to using them so you can chuck a javelin at someone, then charge in and slam a longsword into them.

Not sure what the third thing could be. A spell barbarian might work, but Totem already covers that decently well.

I want a Gotrek barbarian.

Slayers, basically.

My bet is on shout barbarian (with ally buffs), slightly-different totem barbarian, and even-more-hitting-things barbarian, because WotC can't into originality.

>>50119715
It is going to be

Checked for truthful post.

Druidic Barbarian

I hope we get primal power barbarian

I liked being able to get so angry that I turn into a volcano in 4e

Combat maneuver Ragemaster barbarian

>>50123793

Doesn't path of the Berserker exist?

Beast master Barbarian would be neat

>>50127876
4e barbarians could become a volcano? What?

How about interesting ways to use the rage mechanic instead of things fluff related to the barbarian.

By itself, this is one of the more mediocre level 5 barbarian daily attack powers, but if you have some method of consistently knocking enemies prone, the extra fire damage can be quite effective.

For comparison, perhaps the best-out-of-the-box level 5 barbarian daily attack power is this one, which applies the damage even to your original target and can automatically delete minions:

>Coldblooded Rage
I always called my dorf barb's rages "martial trances". He liked mushroom beer, bear meat, the colour taupe, cats for their aloofness and absolutely detested snails.

My party thinks I'm a fighter.

>5-6 just gets really sad

>>50131237
He once killed a whole platoon of orcs for killing one of his pet cats. With said cat, using it as an improvised weapon.

The cat was resurrected later, though.

Barbarian who gets so mad that he kills his allies

I really hope they don't make that mistake again

>>50131322
This should be the frenzy actually.

>Kill anything in sight starting with enemies (unless you hate someone in your party)

>>50130897
>Shapeshifter

"You ever get so angry you turned into a bear?"

This is what it's going to be:

"Juggernaut" -- slow n steady, maybe grows in size or w/e

"Dervish" -- Barbarian who uses dex, finesse weapons, etc.

"Hulking Hurler" -- bonuses to thrown weapons n shit

screencap this

He's one of the reasons I carry nonlethal weapons.

>>50131547

I want a DEX-barbarian so fucking bad. It's going to be like River Tam from Firefly. Slips into a trance and starts kicking ass with pinpoint strikes and super-precise-calculated moves.

Read a fucking book, a frenzy berserker is meant to loose all control.

Simple Definition of frenzy: great and often wild or uncontrolled activity

1
a : a temporary madness
b : a violent mental or emotional agitation

2
: intense usually wild and often disorderly compulsive or agitated activity

>>50128676
Literally the existing archetypes:
Totem barbarian
Battlerager
Berserker

>>50127307
These are the most obvious choices along with a warlord barbarian.

>>50131725
Alright. Give one good reason for anyone in the party to want Dragar McTardrage adventuring with them when he'll randomly try to kill them in fights.

If you don't have to change your character to accomadate the other players, they don't have to act out of character to accomadate yours.

>>50131725
If someone's gonna go for PKing while raging, I'm gonna old yeller that rabid dog.

>>50131767
Obviously we'll have

Thane

Elemental-based barbarian

Maybe a shifter Barbarian

>>50131725
>implying it's fun when some miminmaxed berserker brute has nearly killed party members several times for no real reason
Fucking no one in the group likes it. That's the only thing that matters, not the definition of the word "frenzy" you turboautist.
In-group conflict is intriguing when it's a result of player agency, differing character goals and incompatible character personalities. There's no dramatic load to the brute having a X% chance to kill you, despite being a faithful and agreeable character.

>>50131840
Guys you're missing my point.

>>50131322
asks for a barbarian that kills indiscriminately on rage.

By definition that SHOULD be the frenzy berserker.

Why would you play him, how to balance him, whether he fits in a group or not etc is not what I am debating.

>>50131911
No, you're missing the point: it's an awful character option.
