I think it's worth mentioning the Bardiche as a weapon choice, not only does it do a ton of damage, it has a lot of range, which might make a noob's first hours a lot easier. You can hit things like Axe Skeletons and Zwei Skeletons without evoking a counterattack from the AI, just from the range alone. Felling Axe might be rough for next players, since they're bad at spacing away from enemies, and they're probably gonna trade hits with AI for a long time and get killed a lot. Just mentioning.

You get it from the "Squire" in the Merchants tab, at first he only has _some_ stuff for you. The more you do quests for the other merchants the more gear the Squire will provide you, for example the Felling Axe in Grey.
You'll be offered the felling axe once you've completed the first weaponsmith quest. My advice for getting the 5 rare weapons to hand in is in the frost map there's a pyramid in the middle and at the very top on a pedestal thing there's a guaranteed blue weapon. just run there grab it and run out then extract :) The frost map is super unpopular too so for the most part it'll be pretty empty
As a bard your easiest way to counter a barb is to outrange him. Build fast kits and stay away. Once you've widdled him down then shriek of weakness and attack with melee to finish.
