Imo a Whirlwind Barb.
Hard to kill, deals good damage, has a lot of replay value when you like action-like gameplay.
Berserk should absolutely be at at least 1 point, so you can deal with Physical Immunes quickly. Wether or not it's worth it to put more points into it is subject to controversity, tho.
Personally I raised it to 10. If I really do fight Magic-Immunes, I only lose 10% of my damage. But in most cases my Berserk skill is high enough to finish a physical immune in two hits.
Ancient Diablo is in the lowest level of the dungeon which has it's entrance next to Nihlatak. At level 15 or 16 there's a door to "A nasty place" which, unlike the "Nasty Places" before, is actually getting you forward. To Ancient Diablo and other tough enemies.


As for the skill layout, there are many different opinions on what you should and should not do.
I skilled mine like this:

30 Whirlwind (Duh.)
30 Leap Attack (Synergy to Whirlwind.)
10 Berserk
30 Sword Mastery
30 Battle Orders
30 Shout
1 Point each in Battle Command, Ironskin/Natural Resistance, Stamina/Speed, and of course the skills required to reach the skills I have actually maxed out.

I'm not entirely done yet, unfortunately I'm not entirely sure about the future either.
Maxing Battle Command might work, although I consider that shout highly overrated. Another idea would be maxing Berserk to kill single mobs even faster.
Or, and that is what I'll most likely do, maxing Spear Mastery and putting an elite pike with a gargantuan damage in the second weapon slot. Both for range and for the situations when the mobs don't even hurt you, and you just want to kill QUICKLY.

Hope that was of any help,
Frosty
