The Barbarian is one of the eight classes in Might and Magic II: Gates to Another World. Barbarians can use most close-combat weapons, but have few options for ranged fighting. With their high hit points, they make great frontline fighters. They are one of the two classes with no special skills, the other being the knight. To become a barbarian, a character must have an endurance score of at least 15. The base hit point growth of a barbarian is between 1 and 12 hit points per level, but since they must have at least 15 endurance at the start of the game, the real growth will always be higher.
