There are four Malignant Hearts that are specific to the Barbarian class in Diablo 4 Season 1. Remember, you need to create a Seasonal Character to get these drops. This is a post-campaign feature with a questline starting with the new NPC, Cormond, so these will not drop during the story.

Below, you can check out the Barbarian-specific Malignant Heart drops, their socket type (find Rings or Amulet with the corresponding socket type to add them in), and the effect/stats range for each one.

Barbarian Heart Socket Type Effect/Stats Range
Focused Rage Vicious, Offensive After spending 100-60 Fury within 2 seconds, your next Non-Basic Skill's Critical Strike Chance is increased by 20-30%.
Resurgent Life Brutal, Defensive While below 40-60% Life, you receive 50-60% more Healing from all sources.
Punishing Speed Devious, Utility Your Skills have a 20-30% chance to Knock Down all enemies for 1.25 seconds when that Skill's Attack Speed is higher than 35-20%.
Ignoring Pain Wrathful, Super Incoming damage has a 5-15% chance of being ignored and instead Healing you for 17-68.

The Ignoring Pain Wrathful Malignant Heart only starts dropping at World Tier 4 difficulty, while the rest can drop at any difficulty level.

It is important to note that the stats for Barbarian-specific Malignant Hearts, as shared by Blizzard, are for drops with level 20 characters. When the item drops, these stats grow in power the higher your character level at the time.

Please note: The Barbarians can also use the 12 general Malignant Hearts for all classes.

Both the Ignoring Pain and Focused Rage Malignant Hearts should work perfectly with our best Barbarian Spin To Win Whirlwind Build in Diablo 4 Season 1.
