==Passive Skills==
Passive skills replaced [[Traits]] during late game development in 2011. A few Traits were simply changed to passive skills, but most are all new. See the [[Barbarian traits]] page for a full list of those old passives.

==Skill Distribution==
A useful player-made chart showing when the Barbarian gains access to skills, passives, and rune effects.
[[File:Char-prog-barb.png|center|frame|Barbarian skill progression. Stats as of May 5, 2012.]]
A large number of passives were removed for the [[beta]]; the Barbarian lost 8. After that, the list of skills was pretty well set, even if their levels weren't. The Barbarian's [[Leap Attack]] was renamed [[Leap]], and he gained the passive [[Nerves of Steel]].
