Barbarian The king of close quarter combat, they don’t come more vicious than the savage Barbarian. The Barbarian has more weapons and armour options that any other character. There isn’t much subtlety to this class, as it basically revolves around being in a position to get close enough to something to hack it open.

helmet- Ik helm (workin on getting arreats)
boots- water walk
gloves- none.
i have angelic ammy/rings...should i use those or should i get like raven mandald, and like a cats eye..
Next, for my skills..i first asked my friend and he told me the following.
ww- 20points
bo - 20points
shout- 20points

Cos if u use berserk,u can kill those Knights that casts iron maiden!Berserk is an attack with magical damage!So iron maiden will not do any harm to u!But if u still use whirlwind,u'll die........

Even if u got an iron maiden cursed on u...berserk wont really save ur a.ss...usually takes 2 or more berserks to kill a knight...by the time u killed it..ure surrounded by other knights...
