    Just let barbs freely equip claws/fists in Tiger form and have full use of skills, then we'll have some mad scratching kitties.

    at first i was like "wtf is an iunnno"
    but then i saw what you did there

    btw, i doubt that even if barbs could hold aggro they would regain their tank status in bosses that can be tanked otherwise...

    It's true that the biggest problem is to make the bosses harder to need a "tank" and "healer" without having r9 become the bare minimum for a barb. There are solutions for that. There is something called soulforce that can easily be used to make bosses be proportionally hard to someone's gear quality. Or maybe a super simple idea that just popped in my mind : put -20 warding lvls on all G12+ LA and AA parts (those go negative like defence lvls I think, could be wrong though).

    There are plenty of possible solutions to disable LA and AA characters from tanking without disadvantaging those who aren't rich. It will just take a little more thinking then just put a multiplier on something like they did with their lame "aps nerf".

    On the multiple tanking classes point : Personally I consider everyone wearing HA as potential tank or spare tank. For me, bms have always been a tanking class if the player chooses too. Now there are more "tankers" then the old days with the seeker class and easier acces to pets with defence buffs. However, I think a barbarian should be the best tank, meaning that with a bm, seeker and barb in squad, ppl would prefer the barb to tank even if the other 2 also could.


    I didnt read all the posts or put too much brains into all of it, but if you think the warding levels would work then why not put it in suggestions threads?

    No one would do anything but worth a try i guess?

    If somehow they do look into ur suggestions and add a few tweaks and make barbs worthwhile again would be great..

    Nice to see a voice of sensibility! Here's a thread from 2009!: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=539601 -it shows that the devs intentionally put in place aggro for wizards in DB. The game isn't broke just because some people say so.

    This game is not so shallow as one tank fits all. Tired of seeing people say things like 'r game is broke' because they can't figure out how to make their class useful if they can't just spam a couple aggro skills.

    I love playing barb. It's a much more robust and complex class than the complainers are making it out to be. I'm seeing more barbs around lately too, and I'm guessing like me; others have raised them for buffs and ended up enjoying what they THOUGHT was a simple Flesh Ream spammer.

    I also don't see venos complaining that their pets no longer hold aggro.
