Barbarians... the forgotten

I've looked thru literally thousands of builds and I have yet to find a barbarian. You know, the gungho twohand axe wielding maniac that mages love to follow and healers hate to be healing. The simple minded beast that thinks the gods will never let him die or if he is to die it will be in a glorious battle. The kind that they tell tales of to children and bards sing about throughout the ages.

And Im not finding anything to help me do this. I dont want to follow some one else's build but I would like to see some examples to get me pointed in the right direction since my personal attempts make me look like I just started playing Elderscrolls last week instead of having played all of the games. Any links you might have to 2 hander builds would be awesome. TIA

    There's a 2H/bow build I made many months ago at the bottom of the first post

    https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/347682/stamina-cleave-focus-dps-build-nightblade

    If I were to drop the back-bar bow for a battle axe I'd bring brawler to the back bar in place of one of the bow skills and add Expert Hunter to both bars to lift damage without the need for crit potions.

    It might not look like a wildly swinging Ahnold type the whole time since Nightblade's have a lot of speed to their movements and dark red skills that deal disease damage, but maybe it could pass for a Dio type, just add a senche tiger mount for effect.

    There would be lots of direct damage and periods of berserker type fighting from the 5 second mechanical acuity set proc. It could also be possible to proc three assassin's scourges from Relentless Focus, which adds lots of free damage.

    Interesting. I never considered using NB. I was trying with a Stamplar. Do you think a Nord or Orc would work as well?

    A stam sorc would also do well with a 2handed axe/bow. That's actually a very common PVP build anyway.

    Im looking more to "fix" my stamplar. But the NB could bring enough similarity for me to do that. Not sure anything Stamsocr would match besides weapon skills.
