Yes, it's a very good class to solo with. One of the main annoyances soloing with other warriors (appart from the berserker) is that if you are mazed, the game ends and barbarians rage protects you from maze making life much easier. My level 40 Barbarian had 309 HP, 318 whilst enraged, and with the right equipment had 40% resistance to phsical damage, %55 resistance to missile damage and %90 resistance to crushing damage all the time. This was increased by using Hardiness (a high level ability from ToB) by a further %40 so even on insane diff. enemies struggled to take him down. Immunity to backstab also rocks.
