    Default 32-point Human Greataxe wielding Barbarian

    OK, last Barbarian I made was a Dwarf that I deleted after 6 levels... I figured I'd give it another go. For some reason I prefer Humans and Elves, so please don't tell me to roll up a Dwarf (even if it is the master race in DDO).

    I have a nice collection of Greataxes that I want to put to use, so I was thinking of a build to use them with.. what's scarier that a Raging madman with a huge Axe?

    Barbarian 20 (Greataxe wielder)
    32-point Human Chaotic good

    Strength 18 + 1 enhancement + 5 ability increases = 24 + item
    Dexterity 14
    Constitution 15 + 4 enhancements = 19 + item
    Intelligence 8
    Wisdom 10
    Charisma 8

    Barbarian 1 - Toughness, Power Attack, Fast Movement, Rage, Dismiss Rage
    Barbarian 2 - Damage Reduction 1/-. Uncanny Dodge, Barbarian Constitution I
    Barbarian 3 - Two Handed Fighting, Trap Sense +1
    Barbarian 4 - ability increase: +1 Strength
    Barbarian 5 - Improved Uncanny Dodge, Human Adaptability Strength I
    Barbarian 6 - Improved Two Handed Fighting, Trap Sense +2, Barbarian Constitution II
    Barbarian 7 -
    Barbarian 8 - ability increase: +1 Strength
    Barbarian 9 - Improved Critical: Slashing, Trap Sense +3
    Barbarian 10 - Barbarian Constitution III
    Barbarian 11 - Greater Rage
    Barbarian 12 - Greater Two Handed Fighting, Trap Sense +4, ability increase: +1 Strength
    Barbarian 13 - Greater Human Adaptability Constitution I
    Barbarian 14 - Indomitable Will
    Barbarian 15 - Improved Trip, Trap Sense +5
    Barbarian 16 - ability increase: +1 Strength
    Barbarian 17 - Tireless Rage
    Barbarian 18 - Stunning Blow, Trap Sense +6
    Barbarian 19 - Damage Reduction 5/-
    Barbarian 20 - Mighty Rage, ability increase: +1 Strength

    so what do you think? I imagine him as a pure DPS machine. I would max Intimidate and Jump and put some ranks into Spot and Balance.

    Oh, not sure about the stat distribution since I'm at work and don't have access to a build tool.

    -EDIT- revised ability stats

    Looks pretty standard. We will have to see what the barb PrE brings to glancing blow procs.

    2nd stat distribution is better.


    On a dedicated THF combattant you should consider going Warforged. They will get some nice enhancements for TWF in the next mod.
    But Human is not bad either.

    Yeah, I saw that... going Human for the bonus feat/skill point/Strength enhancement.
