Barbarian has always been my favorite. I loved to combat the enemies at close range and beat the living hell out of the undead. This yelling and groaning hero of the sanctuary finds himself a place in Diablo 3, the latest installment of the Diablo game genre by Blizzard. He is back with better and badder skills; you can check the skill footage of Barbarian underneath.

The Diablo 2 LOD is present in Mount Arreat and involves the destruction of Baal and the World Stone. The mount is most sacred to barbarians as it is their birth place. Through out the game we could see lots of barbarians fighting and giving up their lives to keep the demon at bay, far from their last sanctuary of hope. This is the home town of the Barbarian and his courage and pride are pretty famous. Warriors by birth, their wanderlust always keeps them on their foot and no where can you hear about some barbarian retiring from his life of wars and battles. The same hero is featured here. Check the skills of this hero from the skill gameplay footage.

Barbarian Skill: Ground Stomp

A powerful stomp which stuns off nearby enemies. The video looks ok though.

Barbarian Skill: Seismic Slam

I can just say WOW after seeing this skill. Too good for a close ranged melee unit.

Barbarian Skill: Cleave

Finally something similar to what a Barbarian actually does. Sword Slashing combat.

Barbarian Skill: Leap

A huge leap which damages the enemies standing nearby. Nice to look at, but gets monotonous to see him jumping around like a monkey.

Barbarian Skill: Whirlwind

For some reason, I liked this skill the most compared to others released. Maybe this is something which can be easily attributed to Barbarian unlike some of the other prowess displayed.
