I've talked about this before but I would like to propose Barbarian be added with Rangers and Druids in the reduced movement time in terrain. Barbarians as a class already get a 10' speed increase and they are people of the wilds so it makes sense to me. I would like your opinion.

It's a tough call since some barbarian archetypes drop the bonus movement for other abilities, and I think Maella pointed out that some arcane/divine casters may have abilities that would open them up for increased terrain movement. It also makes you wonder about characters with animal companions that act as mounts. Class specific rules don't really lend themselves to the abstract roles that PF classes and their archetypes can bring to a game.

Going to have to say no, since Barbarians are already very dangerous opponents in combat. Pointing out the fact that during last game, the barbarian of the group killed all but one or two of the 8 enemies himself. I don't think they need the advantage. The movement bonus is represented not by extra speed but because you're well attuned to nature and know how to take short-cuts.

You weren't there when the Ismark dude killed 5 skeleton knights by himself and got 2500XP? After witnessing that I wouldn't really call barbarians so powerful.

I was there. Mind you his race gave him quite the amount of bonuses in Lead Blades and Cure Light Wounds, which is ultimately what I felt won him that battle. I would shudder at the thought of a Barbarian of that race o.o
