The most cruel barbarians were the Huns, that is for sure, I read some insane stuff about them!

it is somehow a judgment call anyway (your, mine, and some others best not named) so we can keep our opinions. Still, Varus would disagree with you. He lost 3 legions in the black forest against Germans.
Also ask yourself why Rome maintained along the Rhine a strong defence (lime) hundred of kilometers long. See also where were stationed the legions (mainly along the rhine and danube). Germans were perhaps not the *ferociest* (if ferocity can be measured!) people in the world, but still it posed a threat to Rome during several centuries, and at the peak of his power. To dismiss them like a band of puppies would be unfair
