I will play as a barbarian most of the time in Diablo 3 and this is a PvE build which I finally decided upon.
I've chosen 'Bash' as my primary fury generator skill because its rune allows me to generate 12 fury on each blow, which is quite high. I was thinking of using two fury generator spammable skills but I've given up on 'Cleave' because I think I may need that slot for a situational skill which could be a life-saving one.
'War Cry' is a skill I really like since it gives both buff and fury. Don't wanna miss this one.
'Hammer of the Ancients' is my main fury spender skill. Its +%15 critical hit chance and the damage boost rune makes this skill decent enough against all kinds enemies.
'Battle Rage' is also a nice buff with low fury cost and long enough duration. 20 fury means like 1,5 'Bash' blows for me so it's almost a free skill.
Apart from the 'War Cry' buff, I don't have any defensive skills yet so I decided to take 'Overpower' and 'Revenge' as my panic buttons. The reason for selecting them is that these two skills deal decent AoE damage and both are fury-free. The rune I selected for 'Overpower' makes it a good life-saver skill and the rune for 'Revenge' takes its proc chance up to %30, which is really high.
As passives, I've made my selection with two damage skills and one life-leech defensive skill. I will have %18 crit bonus only from my skills while an axe or mace is equipped and 'Battle Rage' is on. I care about my crit chance because if 'Overpower' crits, its cooldown is reset immediately.
So that's my PvE build for my Barbarian. Hope you like it. I'll be searching for interesting builds of other people as well on this post.
Diablo 3 is not a competitive game on its PvE side. You may try to compare your dps with your teammate while in the arena but killing monsters is meant to be fun, not race. Thus I believe there should never be a dps meter in the game. My vote will be no for this.
