    Question 28pt twf barb PLEASE HELP

    i want 2 make a twf barb. as much as i hate it, all the strongest builds apparently are twf. are there any good 1s that are 28 pt builds? also, wat race should i make him? i kno the extra human feat is a ton of help, but i dont wanna use all my plat on khopeshes, and exotics seem 2 b best. y i was planning on making a dwarf, their axes r pretty strong. but then i cant get oversized till 3. and i kno the 20 barb enhance is great so i really dont wanna multiclass, but if i dont(fighter) it just sets all my feats back a good bit. please help me figure this out. also, if their are some high dps 28 pt builds that'd b amazing(cuz i doubt there r any)

    Your best bet with a barbarian class, is to either wait for you to unlock 32 point builds (1750 favour) or go with a THF build instead. TWF is more dps, currently, but THF isn't unplayable certainly.

    The reason for wanting 32 point builds is that you should always start with a strength score of 18. This takes 16 of your points.

    TWF feat line requires a dexterity score of 17 for the second and third feat. So if you plan on using a +2 tome (looted, or the free one at 1750 favour) you can start with a score of 15. That's another 8 points.

    That only leaves you 4 points for your constitution. So a human barb with 12 con, or a dwarf or WF barb with 14 con. This is low for a barbarian, who will be expected to have a ton of HP for when he's the group's meat shield in a quest.

    If you're human, grab khopesh. If you're dwarf, use dwarven axes.

    Don't sweat not having OTWF feat till 3. It'll only take you a couple hours to get there. You can even start with the greataxe till 3, just not use a THF feat.

    If you take OTWF at 3 you will have to put off FB chain and will suck. On a pure barb you should not take it at all, on an 18/2 it is debatable.

    Question some more questions and stuff

    ok rabscuttle that does help a lot, but 1 thing id like 2 kno a lot is would it 2 b worth splashing in a couple levels of fighter for the feats, or is the enhancement at lvl 20(capstone i think its called) worth staying pure? ik that i will b rather gimped in the hp department, but the thing im trying to go 4 is to have the damage with the twf 2 take them out b4 they can severly hurt me( unless a shaman crits me 2 all hell). i am also planning on taking toughness at some point, but that is something very tough 2 deal with. im not trying to b a meatshield, despite that normally being wat a barbarian is. i guess im trying to break the mold with this build, even if i do **** off every cleric i meet
