TY for the help, I think I can put most of the info you guys put in here to good use. I'm going to stick with Barbarian Class for my starting on a new server (I'm getting sick of PvP clans having KoS, I just wanna lvl!) Once again, TYVM for the info and now I feel better that I'm doing somthinG RIGHT for once.
Death and the Marines have two things in common;
1. They both kill other people as easily as breathing.
2. They both would kill each other if they met face to face.

    -What skills should I focus on?
    I assume good barb means tanking, in that case: true form, alacrity, and flesh ream. Get slam and roar for getting agro, too. Get HP buff, too.

    -Is it better to fight in Tiger form or Panda, Wolf etc. Form?
    Tanking - use true form as a tiger.

    -What is a good stat point allocation for a Barbarian?
    Follow weapon stats and everything else to vitality

    -What skills should I leave alone?
    My barb usually lacks coins, so focus on the tanking skills. Spend leftover money on PVE skills to help level faster, the one w/ stun works well for me. Bloodbath helps, too.

    -Should I learn Tailor, Blacksmith and Craftsman skills and make my own armour, weapons, and charms?
    It's not necessary. If you are in a guild, many guildies have crafting skills.

    The barbarian build guide in Pwi is a great guide. I follow it and have no regret so far. Just watch out for your attribute points, as equipments add more to the 4 attributes

    -Garotte, Flesh Ream, Mighty Swing, Penetrate Armor, Devour, Slam, Beast King's Inspiration, and Alacrity of the Beast are all good I think.
    -Tiger, atleast for tanking FBs (for obvious reasons). When doing skills, learn from my mistakes, and ATLEAST make your tiger/humanoid skills about even (I focused on humanoid a lot)
    -No mag, minimum strength and dex to keep up to date with your equips, then the rest in vit. This is the widely accepted generic tanking barb build.
    -Stomp of the Beast King, and maybe firestorm.
    -I'm not sure, it may just be a personal preference. I prefer smithing myself.

    Always go tiger while tanking, humanoid for pvp or quicker grinding.

    Things to Max:
    Tanking skills- Beast Kings inspration, Flesh realm, Shapeshifting intesity, True form, Alcarity of the beast.

    PVP skills- Blood bath, Armagedon, Beastial Onslaught, Penetrait armor, Mighy swing.

    General learn and lvl common sence stuff- Invoke the spirit, Axe and Hammer mastery, Strength of Titans.

    Stats should meet weapon basic requirements, left over points into vit.

    Skills not worth lvling asap: Stomp of the beast king, Garrote, Swell, Slam.

    Proffesions wise its personal and not needed but comes in handy to lvl up blacksmith, tailor, craftsman and apoc. You will be wanting that HH armor, and mold weps so its best to lvl these up in your spare time.

    i agree on all of the following but...the vit part...what if he wants to be a DD/tank hybrid? or just a DD barb?
    probably one of the smartest in perfect world
    yet the lowest of level

    ok few tips i can think of off the top of my head, normal form is **** at earlier lvls get the lvl 3 skill (the DoT atk) to lvl 1 so u can get stun later on) leave the newbie atk skill u start with at lvl 1 as well... at lvl 9 get tiger form and keep flesh ream maxed that skill stacks and its one of ur most important skills

    Now barbs are kind of versitile, I usually use tiger form for magic mobs (faster/more hp/can cancel channeling) and use normal form for archer mobs (more dmg/stun at early lvl [tiger form doesnt get a stun till 79+]) and for melee mob it just depends, solo i use tiger, party i use normal

    I recommend leaving true form to lvl 1, lvl 2 max until higher lvls...the patk reduction is killer, i have mine at lvl 2 right now and i half way like it half way wish i left it at 1...at lvl 3 u lose 50% patk i really dont recommend it till at least 70+ >.<

    Is this your only barb? Your "tip" on true form is worth 0... 10% hp as a tank you'll always want so max true form at all times.
