Gidday,

what do you think is a good number of levels as a barbarian to get those hit points??

cheers

i tink u should remain as a Babarian for about 7-10 levels more than ur previous lvls. but if u want, u can stay as a babarian longer than what i said here, it's up 2 u..........the more the merrier!!! :D

From my own experience, once you get to around level 12 or 13, you've really got to have a reason to stay in a role (like getting level 7 magic, for example). The XP needed to take you from level 13 to 14 would take you to around level eight or nine in a new class...

Of course, the longer you stay, the longer you get to experience the benefits. It's all up to you, and there are no wrong answers.

so naturally, it's like the saying "u do or u DO!!!" heehee [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] !!!

I tend to stay in most roles until I have all the level 7 magic that the role has, about 11 or 12 levels. Barbarian is different, the longer you are in it the better your hitpoints are. My solo whiska wizard has been a barbarian for 18 levels now but I am thinking of changing to ranger just to obtain more gold.
The undisputed legend of the Gael Serrin is Felix the assassin, he was a barbarian for 22 levels.
It depends alot on the type of team you have, it is probably worth leaving one as a barbarian for a long time as long as other charactors can get the skills that you miss out on by not changing roles.
Also remember that you should be a barbarian when you find the idol of bongu (or was that bungole or maybe bungleau) so that you can get the giantstrike trait.
Like most things in this game it depends on your priorities in your charactor development.

Anyone can get 'Giant Strike' from the the Idol of Bongu... :D
