So havent played either class and looking to try something new. Archon was boring, hold down one button and move forward. Same with my TR monk and DH was just worthless. If I just wanna farm some place like VoA on MP 5-7 and dont care about MP 10 or ubers which class would be better? Also if I do make a Barb it will be HoTA because after watching WW vidoes vs HoTA videos WW just doesnt look as fun to me.
Actually it is like this. Any char need gear, that is very to say, you cannot make any build work without a gear.
I've played both WD paragon 90, and Barb around paragon 15.
Depends on what you want.
For PVE Barb wins if you want fast legendary farming. Earlier barb gear was much more expensive but now it is very cheap.
For PVP WD is better if you ask me, and I think most would agree.
The best advice I can give you is to play the class you enjoy the most.But If you enjoy OP class take Barb
And one very important thing WD is worse then Barb on higher MPs. At 1-2 they can compare but at higher, with same amount of gold spent Barb is much stronger, and kills faster.
Barb is better, I had a Witch Dr, @47 paragon and just deleted it. Witch Dr.'s get killed too easy and after a while they are more annoying than anything.

You deleted a level 47 paragon WD? why throw away so much time and effort?

I just didn't have the will to play him anymore, and I didn't want to change my mind later on and start him up again, wasting still more of my time.
I'm just going to be a Barbarian now with a sorta extra Barbarian on the EU server. I still have my Monk and have no plan to get rid of her, I'm hoping that with the 1.0.8 patch or the expansion, new possibilities may open up for the Monk.

That's fair enough, everyone has the right to do what they want with their characters, and if you want to delete yours then I respect that.

WD is a lot more fun imho. Good positioning, proper usage of minion "aggro" and defensive spells. Overall a cooler theme.
Makes me want to go try some new things with my WD (which I haven't played in over a month).
