Barbarians are quite tanky.

When they're Raging, they get resistance to all physical damage (Resistance meaning they only take half damage). With Bear Wildheart this changes to resistance to all damage except psychic.

In addition to this, one of their main stats is CON so it's easy to get a lot of health (They can also use their CON modifier for more AC if unarmoured).
