I've played DDO for quite some time, but I've only played a rogue so far. A few days ago I started a new toon, a barbarian. What I'd like to ask of you is to give me some tips on how to play it effectively in a group. So far I've only soloed the low level quests (I started a veteran char, at lvl 4), so I'd like to know what is actually expected of me (besides raining DPS on foes), how to effectively pull aggro (I'm investing in intimidate skill), or anything else you might think it would help me be good. Also, should I pursue the frenzied berserker (is it worthwhile?)? I'm thinking on going pure barbarian all the way. Here's the char if you want to take a look http://my.ddo.com/character/khyber/Syvas
Thank you in advance :)

Did you read this: The Definitive Guide to Barbarians (http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=296816) by Shade?
That should get you started.

Looking at that character, you have a few wasted gear slots.
DR doesn't stack. You have 3/- inherent at level 5, with the enhancement. That's all you need. The 1/- from the helm and 3 / Slash, Bludgeon from bracers aren't doing anything. And are the gloves for another 1/- that isn't showing?
Try to find some bulls, bears and rage clickys. Pots work as well. You want to boost your con as high as you can and then use your barb rage. The higher your con the longer your rage lasts. You want to stay raged as much as possible to do as much damage as possible.

Yep, I see it now that I've read the guide. But I'll most likely build a new one since I haven't really gone far with this one so it's not a waste.
