Barbhireable

The Hireling in Act V of Diablo II is a Barbarian Warrior who chose to fight beside you after you bravely rescued him during a quest.

There are Barbarian Combatants that walk around outside Act V areas.

Skills and Equipment[]

Barbarians use Stun, Bash and Battle Cry or Frenzy, Taunt and Iron Skin depending on which you choose.

As their weapon, depending on their skills, they can equip either one one- or two-handed sword or two one-handed swords. And much like the regular Barbarian, his HP will go up in big numbers a level, surpassing even the Desert Mercenaries of Act II.

Barbarian mercenaries may also wear Helms, including Barbarian Helms (+Barbarian skill bonuses are applied), and Body Armor. They can also wear the complete set Sazabi's Grand Tribute - the only other set that can be completed on a hireling is Isenhart's Armory, which requires an Iron Wolf.
