thats hard to say, you could try and make 1 setup for everyone or use different items vs each kind of char you fight.

vs most you'll want mass life

you could make a speed barb with a range 5 weapon

you could make a good weapon/shield vs most chars

you could make a barb with +400%to cold vs orb sorcs
you could make a barb with +225%to lightning vs FOH pal
you could make a barb with 90%toall 95%to fire
vs a necro you'll need zerk/leap if they IM+bonewall

for most barbs it comes down to what you can get for items. you can make a good barb with sets/uniqs but to make one using all rares could take take a long time.

What are some good sets, uniques to use until you can find rares? Also I was wondering is their a site that shows all classic only items?

Classic items = normal sets, normal uniques, normal and exceptional items. Max enhanced dmg = 200%.

To answer your original post: when dueling you should build for the type of char your facing but to just go in a pvm game and hostile everyone this is what I'd use.

for bar dual, here are my suggestions:
200%ed rare battle hammer or at least 150+%
uniq spike shield (40% chance to ow)
uniq light plate boots (25% cb)
uniq Studded Leather (20%fhr and 25%block) or 90%ed op
