Barbarians do not get any magic from their attributes, and don't even gain mana from leveling up. All of their magic and mana must come from equipment, and it can be a struggle for a new Barbarian to survive with nothing but healing scrolls and healing potions. Carrying town portal scrolls is essential for a good while (Healing and Town Portal scrolls require 0 magic to use) as well.
Eventually, higher level Barbarians should be able to accumulate enough +magic equipment to read a variety of [[D1 Spellbooks|spellbooks]]. Using some magic is very helpful. Being able to heal is certainly nice, and stone curse and teleport help greatly in the hell levels when witches and mages are encountered. Be sure you only by buy full healing potions; partials will do almost nothing for the Barbarian.
