Hiya all, i am going to play a lvl 7 dwarven barbarian. I was just wondering what you think of it, and maybe you can give me some advice for the next few levels and or changes....

here he is:

Ranger 3/Barb 2/Battle Rager 2(races of fearun)

str 19
dex 14
con 18
int 10
wis 10
cha 8

We use 78 point by point buy system. an i putted my lvl 4 point in str. (can be changed a bit..)

He fights with a dwarven waraxe and a hand axe(from the rangers twf)

the feats i have choosen are
lvl 1 Power attack
lvl 3 Cleave
ranger lvl 3 endurance
lvl 6 i am not sure about this feat.. (maybe iron will...)

Saves are fort +9/ref +3/will +1.

How do you like him?? Can you give me some advise...

The party consist out a cleric/sorcerer/ranger(archer)/dwarven fighter...

Thnx in advance

How many levels are you playing for? If you plan on progressing above 10th then frenzied beserker really carries on the battle rager theme. Take destructive rage and intimidating rage as your 6th and 9th level feats

Also how about the dwarven buckler axe from Complete Warrior. As a dwarf you can treat it as martial and it gives you a few options. You can attack with both war axe and buckler axe TWF style, or you can use the buckler for defense instead. You could hold the war axe in two hands when you need the extra strength damage or even use your unarmed stike from battle rager with your off hand if you need to.

Another option could be to wear a horned or spiked helmet for those raging charge attacks

If everything goes as plan(and i stay alive hahaha) we will be lvl 15 at the end of the campaign.

The dwarven buckler axe was something i overlooked. It is a nice add on to my char, and looks a bit better then a hand axe....

thnx for the suggestion prism :)


More advice is always welcome.

About the items i wanted to take are:

A +1 dwarven waraxe and a rhino hide, because i will charge a lot in battle i think it will be a nice armour for me, but for more suggestions...

since you like to charge you should look at the combat brute or shock trooper tatcical feats in the CW book. strong feats for a bararian.

Hello,
i made a similar character some time ago which would be another way to build :

Dwarf
01) Barbarian 1
02)-05) Fighter 1-4
06)-10) Battle Rager 1-5
11)-20) Frenzied Berserker 1-10

Feats
01) Endurance
02) Weapon focus
03) Power attack
05) Cleave
06) Weapon spec

Battle Rager is a good Prc.
