In 3.5 (that's the only one I know for sure) Barbarians are default illiterate.

You have to take a feat, post character creation, for them to gain literacy. You can't take it while making the character.

IIRC it was two skill points, not a feat, and you could have it right from character creation. Of course, that was a decent chunk of skills for a class with 4 + Int that tended toward low Int builds. And back then Commoners were illiterate too, because they just get the worst of everything.

Because I'm PRETTY FUCKING SURE that Halfling Barbarian makes about as much sense as Pixie barbarian. My other character is a New World Of Darkness Demon which by default means "he" is an "it" hardwired for paranoia and intrigue.

I wasn't born with a micropenis, so I don't have to compensate by trying to be overtly masculine.

There's nothing wrong with being masculine, but if you work out, listen to music, or play a certain type of character because it's so amazingly manly and you want to be manly, then you are pathetic.

1. If I tried to pillage anything I would get arrested and or shot by police

4. I am really not into that rape thing
5. I like the idea of wearing armor and or warm clothes rather than leaving myself exposed to the weather and enemy bullets.

I see you haven't gotten some levels on them. Barb has some of the highest AC possible in the game. With resistance, they have the highest effective hp in the game.

Read some charop, barb is one of the higher tier martials.
>>
>>44006564
>High resistances and AC in a game with literally zero ability to pressure an enemy to target you over someone else save for one lackluster fighter feature.

I bet you think Moon Druids are good beyond early levels too.
>>
>>44007104
I think doing higher single target damage than any of the casters, limited flight and the mobility to make that high damage useful is a good enough reason for enemies to target you.

>higher single target damage than any of the casters
1st: they barely do optimized martial single target damage
2nd: They essentially ARE casters, because that damage is dependent on a per-day resource

Can't Barbarians Sunder spells in PF?
>>
>>43997331
They got rid of illiteracy in PF, if its any consolation. Also Barbs are still a strong Tier 4 in PF, and can get into 3 territory due to being able to take options that allow then to Sunder spells.

>>44001164
Dude, in 3.PF Barbarians are the only fun 1pp martial to play as (though Slayer can get close) and are considered to be relatively well balanced.

Granted, its probably a better idea to grab Path of War for martials instead, but its not always available due to being 3pp.
