Diablo II Hints
General Barbarian Tips
The Barbarian is the master of hand-to-hand combat. You will want to pile on the strength, to make each hit you deliver as painful as possible. After you get to 60 strength or better, start to build dexterity as well as strength. When you get even further along, magic will start to be more important. By level 30, think about putting some points into energy at every level.
Because the Barbarian is always in the heat of battle, he is constantly taking damage. You should get either the Find Potion skill or get a weapon that can do life stealing.
