How to Make a Great Barbarian Build

Barbarians thrive on four core mechanics: Fury dumping, weapon swapping, bleed, and Berserk. Choosing the right Key Passive and skill synergy is crucial. Fury Dump Builds utilize Unbridled Rage for massive damage boosts at the cost of higher Fury expenditure. Berserk Builds focus on staying in the Berserk state with the Unconstrained Key Passive for continuous damage bonuses. Bleed Builds leverage Gushing Wounds for damage over time and critical strike synergy. Weapon Swapping Builds use Walking Arsenal to gain massive buffs from alternating weapons and skills.
