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 all the way to the very strong Rageblade. He could be unlocked by purchasing the Holiday Bundle 2021 for 1499 Robux , and currently can be unlocked by purchasing him directly for 399 Robux , by opening him from a lucky crate, or by being gifted him by someone else. He is in the fighter 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. After an opponent spawns, there is around a 10-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.
