DIABLO: Level 9 – Hardcore – Ladder – Barbarian
New characters generally are safe from other players until they hit Level 9. Players are able to hit the hostility button in the party window. In Hardcore you can allow other players to loot your corpse if you die. Low level dueling is more common than high level dueling in Hardcore. Just depends I guess if people like to level up on your server. There's a fair bit of strategies involved in winning duels. I don't have the patience though as a Barbarian to be chasing around ranged fighters. Have to be careful though because there are some classes that can kill in one shot.
