and abilities have been reworked. Nevertheless, the Barbarian
will remain one the best meat tanks there is in the game.In gameplay footage, the Barbarian appears to have many powerful melee attacks in the short and mid ranges. Most of these attacks have wide attack radii and can hit multiple enemies at once. Cleave and Ground Stomp are classic melee moves, while Seismic Slam is an excellent ranged attack. Those who have played this class in Diablo 2 will be familiar with the newly enhanced Leap and Whirlwind techniques.
