Frigost is a good counter against Barbarian.


 * You can block-stagger Barbarian whenever you recovered from your stun. There's bound to be an extra pummel when you get up, making it the right moment to block.


 * Using Glacier Shield when Barbarian is about to use Bash will make the Barbarian staggered while you stunned. This is a great way to shorten the damage from Pummel, and possibly cannot reach you fast enough if he is slowed enough.


 * Shatter Sword will slightly deal more damage than the rest of your abilities because the damage is raw, ignoring defense. In addition, it debuffs a good amount of movement and damage. I use this when the Barbarian is staggered or stunned.


 * Icicle will play a small role in this. I use this for some extra damage incase the Barbarian is trying to run away or catch up to me.
