Ruan Strategy: +19Hit/+19 Quickness
Whispering Wind: +18 Hit/+23 Quickness

Admittedly, the Barbarian's duration is pretty short(3 minutes or so), but here's the important bit: They can keep it up pretty much non-stop(although they will need to find some way to stay alive at low HP just long enough to buff, then heal up again and drop HP just before putting up another instance). Whereas if you catch a Ninja in the 2 minutes where whispering wind has just dropped, they're denied both offense and defense.

PS. Ijiwaru and Mist Warrior totally need new stuff. Just haven't been able to think of anything yet.

There are multiple affects for barbs besides quickness and hit.
