this is an easy one. get accuracy rings and belts and what not on ur gear because seekers have decent evasion. second, max out Blood Bath this skill comes in handy against bm's, seekers, sins, and archers. get occult ice for ur genie cuz seekers under 79 don't have anti stun. stun, stun, and stun as often as u can, a barb can't stun lock but Mighty Swing should be highly effective on seekers the more u lvl it up. also one thing u may need to look into, seekers use both strong based physical and magical attacks so to minimize their magic dmg get this skill for ur genie "True Emptiness" where it drastically lowers the magic dmg output inflicted upon ur toon.
hope this helps

Do what this guy said.

Also don't fall for that Str build or Claw Barb ****. You get 20 hp per vit point. Use it to the fullest.

First and foremost, duels are nothing like actual pking, I just wanted to get that out of the way.

As for pvping as a barb, I can only tell you what I've seen work effectively for them.

I've personally seen that vit barbs are the best pvp build for 2 reasons.
1) you're hard as hell to kill. Between a charm, high defenses, insanely high hp, apoth, and crab meat, you're simply impossible to kill for some classes.
2) Armageddon with a vit barb is scary.

Speaking of Arma, don't be afraid to use it. Stun when you can and get your opponent as close to 50% hp as you can (but not actually 50% so their charm ticks). When you have their hp at about 51-60%, use Arma, especially if your hp is 90%+.

I see waaaay too many barbs that are afraid to tick their own charm with arma. A lot of barbs don't realize this, but they could end a fight pretty quickly if they just grew a pair.

Oh and if you fight a caster/archer, use tiger form to chase them down. 6m/s+higher hp+ better pdeff is a pretty nice movement buff to have
