The Barbarian maintains many of these gameplay elements in Diablo 4 Gold, with their Paragon Board providing players various opportunities to tackle their melee-intensive gameplay. Before players look into Legendary Nodes, they may want to consider how effective Barbarian Rare Nodes can affect this warrior's gameplay more consistently.

10 Raw Power (Basic Board) +10% Physical Damage, +10 Strength Bonus: +10% Physical Damage at 160 Dexterity (Basic), 250 Dexterity (Warbringer, Weapons Master)

Players enjoying their Barbarian gameplay in Diablo 4 should consider capitalizing on the Class's potential to dish out the most Physical Damage to foes, with Raw Power giving a much-needed +10% Physical Damage on top of +10 Strength. This easily bolsters the Barbarian's immense raw damage capabilities with numbers that boost their potential as any team's resident tank and melee DPS.

Raw Power is best paired with Exploit (Rare Glyph), which adds +1% Damage boost to Vulnerable targets per Dexterity Node purchased within range. Once players buy 5 Dexterity Nodes within this Glyph's range, attacking an opponent forces them in a 3-second Vulnerable state once per 20 seconds, contributing to Raw Power's boosts to the Barbarian's DPS.

9 Enraged (Blood Rage) +15% Berserking Duration, +10% Berserking Damage Bonus: +10% Berserking Damage at 260 Willpower, 350 Strength

Berserking lies at the heart of every Barbarian in Diablo 4 gameplay, especially since this state gives them +25% Damage on top of 30% Movement Speed. This explains why certain Skills (i.e., Violent Upheaval, Enhanced War Cry) grant such a state, with the Enraged Rare Node being one of the few elements capable of boosting not just Berserking Duration but also Berserking Damage for the Class.

Enraged works well with cheap Diablo IV Items Blood Rage (Legendary Node), especially since killing a Bleeding enemy has a 10% chance of proccing a 5-second Berserk. While Barbarians have an existing Berserk Duration Cap, Bleeding being another Berserking source can make Berserks a more reliable way of dealing more damage.
