Barbarian is one of the three original kits added on June 14, 2021. His special ability lets him gain rage by attacking enemies, which can upgrade his sword to the Rageblade. He could be unlocked by purchasing the Holiday Bundle 2021 for Robux 1499 Robux , and currently can be unlocked by purchasing him directly for BedCoins 10,000 BedCoins or Robux 399 Robux , by opening him from a lucky crate, or by being gifted him by someone else via Robux Robux . He is in the Fighter class fighter class.

Movement class Abilities[]

Rage[]

Barbarian has a "Rage" bar that fills whenever he deals damage to an opponent with any weapon; one rage is equivalent to one damage with melee weapons and two damage with ranged weapons. After an opponent spawns, there is a 14.5-second cooldown before Barbarian can get rage from them. When full, his sword will be upgraded, and the bar will restart. Upon dying, he loses half of his total rage, which can downgrade his sword. The rage bar can stack beyond the rageblade, with 1,155 rage dealt to get a rageblade upon death, with a 2x increase per rageblade upon death that stacks multiplicatively. This mechanic replaces the shop ability to buy swords.

Rageblade[]

Main article: Rageblade

The Emerald Sword is replaced with the Rageblade when Barbarian reaches 1,155 rage. It deals 70 damage and is the most powerful sword in the game, alongside being the third most powerful melee-weapon in the game.

Ranged class Strategy[]

Barbarian is the epitome of early-game playability. His ability to upgrade to the rageblade for free can be maximized by strategizing and outplaying enemies to get rage. He also can exploit the Eldertree health system by targeting Eldertree and farming rage from it. Thanks to the rage mechanic relying on only the raw number of damage you deal, the Eldertree's health makes it an easy way to solve any problems with swords. He has basically no weakness if you use it right, with the only mild inconveniences being knockback and falls, both of which should be a pushover. Begin with iron armor to counter people using leather and are teamfighting so early in the game. Then, either get pick kills (catch someone by surprise before they have a chance to kill you) or kill steals. However, once you get to around a diamond sword, stop fighting and grab emeralds, and also get kills on people who are alone and are trying to steal the emerald objectives. Use all your stat points on 3 damage, then armor. As you are outscaling them, you need to get diamond armor if you want to actually fight with your Rageblade because you take 14 damage via iron sword against iron armor, and with a lot of enemies swarming you, that adds up. To solve this even further, use Forest 3 immediately (this is why you want that objective so early in the game). Keep in mind that you can stack rage beyond the Rageblade infinitely, so you can receive the Rageblade upon dying multiple times.

At 13 minutes, the Titan will spawn in the middle of the map. The Titan’s Blessing is one of the most important in the game, being the ability to be immune to tesla coils, which halve your health regeneration and can screw you over if used correctly by the enemy, in addition to a 20% damage buff. Do not spawnkill at camps until you have gotten Titan’s Blessing. Then, get Berserker and go, you can use the spawnkills to initially build up rage or slowly break beds, though keep in mind that it's not going to give you an infinite rage glitch since if you kill an enemy, you can't get rage from him if you hit him in the last 15 seconds. Keep spawnkilling until the Buff is at 50 seconds left. Then, use an Telepearl and get out of there with your loot and huge bounty. Make sure to store all of it in your chest to not have your loot stolen. Then, prioritize emerald armor and get the second Blessing and repeat until deathmatch, where you still can spawnkill every single person in the game. Make sure to also get blastproof ceramic to bridge with or obsidian, as they are immune to fireballs and can save you from explosions if enough of them is made to build a large enough platform. For high level players, they most likely will figure out you're a Barbarian and will inevitably target you to try and limit you from being a supercarry, since Barbarian relies on tanking and attacking at the extreme. To limit this, convince any Support kits like Whisper to buff you.
