    Hello :) and good luck to all of you :Thumbs Up:

    I've chosen the barbarian :barb: since I always liked to play a heavy melee class and also because the barbarian was and still is my favorite class since Diablo 2.

    The builds that I came up with are meant for a Multiplayer Tank Barbarian. There isn't much damage output since my team would be working on that. Instead I focused on life steal, damage reduction and crowd control.

    >>The first build is for Group Tanking:
    Link to build: http://eu.battle.net...YSdX!bce!acYccZ
    Skill uses:
    - Frenzy "Triumph" is the first life steal skill (12% of maximum life over 6 seconds )requiring to have the killing blow on the enemy.
    - Revenge "Provocation" is the second and more reliable life steal skill (5% of maximum life for each enemy hit ) making it increasingly effective as the number of enemies hitting you increases.
    - Threatening Shout "Demoralize" is mainly used to reduce damage received and preventing enemies from hitting my team.
    - War Cry "Impunity" is mainly a support skill increasing armor and resistances by 50% for the whole group.
    - Leap Attack "Iron Impact" is a great opening skill to have more control over the battlefield in addition to increasing my armor as I land into the fray.
    - Ground Stomp "Wrenching Smash" is also a crowd control skill by pulling enemy casters closer, clustering monsters for more effective AOE damage done by my team, in addition to stunning and interrupting the oppponents.

    >>The second build is for Boss Tanking:
    Link to build: http://eu.battle.net...YSkj!bce!baYcbZ
    Skill uses:
    - Frenzy "Smite" is mainly used to stun the boss as much as possible ( specially after the 5 stacks of weapon speed ) in addition to fury generation.
    - Overpower "Revel" is a free life steal skill (7% of maximum life) every 15 seconds in addition to damage output.
    - Ancient Spear "Dread Spear" is also used for life steal ( 60% of damage inflicted ) in addition to keeping the boss away from my team.
    - Threatening Shout " Demoralize" is a great damage reduction skill in addition to preventing the boss from damaging my team.
    - War Cry "Impunity" is mainly a support skill increasing armor and resistances by 50% for the whole group.
    - Call Of The Ancients " Duty To The Clan" is a situational skill used to increase the damage output and keeping the boss "occupied" for the duration of the skill specially when I am low on health and unable to regenerate ( skills or potions on CD and absence of health globes ).

    The passive skills for my two builds are the same and consist of:
    - Nerves of Steel great armor boost
    - Inspiring Presence life regeneration and shouts duration increased
    - Superstition non-physical damage reduction and fury generation



    I hope you guys like my builds :)

    Thank you diablofans for this opportunity and your hard work :D


    Cheers

    Thank you ScyberDragon for this post :)

    Great work in putting together all the little clues, now the story is getting clearer.

    The intriguing part is Azmodan and Belial's plan kicking out the prime evils, I thought maybe it was their plan from the beginning to force Tyrael in destroying the worldstone (by leaving him the choice between leaving it corrupted or destroying it - tough decision :P - )to be able to invade Sanctuary and maybe later the Heavens.
    I can't wait to see the encounter against those 2 Demons O_O

    Cheers

    Hey everyone,

    I'd blindly choose the BARBARIAN first.

    For me Melee has always been my favorite Archetype, as for play style I prefer the heavy armored two handed weapon wielding warriors. Nothing is more satisfying than bashing/slashing monsters into pieces with a big fat mace/axe :xD:
    As of the "Skill and Traits / Lore / Looks " I'm sure it will be enjoyable through game-play and complete my decision :D

    Cheers
