I know it's early but I'm very disappointed in the build variety of barbarians so far. It's shout builds only because anything else is too weak to compete. Even found the unique chain pull axe but giving up a shout on the bar is simply not worth it. Anyway with the start of the first season I'd like a class with some variety to play around with different builds. Any recommendations?

Yeah but I think that's where the difference is. What is build diversity? Even if there are a "best build for X" (pvp, NM dungeons, open world content) - likely those will be different builds, and thus you have achieved build diversity.

So its about what perspective we take when we talk about build diversity. Is it to have several builds that can do X content at the highest level from one class? is it for builds to do several avenues of content at a high competetive level?

Definitely. From what I can tell it's about being able to play more than one spec the main activities of choice. Which for 9/10 people is PvE.
