    Default Feedback request

    Hey folks,
    I threw together a Halfling Barbarian as a joke, but found myself really enjoying it. While I know she'll never stand toe to toe with a Warforged or Dwarf Barbarian, I still want her to be the best she can. My main purpose for her is a DPS machine who can handle her agro.
    I also know Barbs are more focused on THF than TWF, but I went the TWF path on her. I'd like to keep her going that route, as my Paladin is a THFer and I'm enjoying the change of pace.
    Any feedback would be appreciated. She's level 10 now, so those levels are already pretty much done in the build below, but 11-20 is still wide open.

    Thank you all in advance for your input.

    No Power Attack? No Frenzied Berserker? Whatever you do, do not take the Power Critical feat.

    There is no longer any critical rage available to take.

    Start with 15 dex.

    Get FB and pre reqs.

    Drop Weapon Focus and power critical.

    Take Halfling Guile and Cunning.

    You need cleave and power attack..... If you melee you need PA for sure.

    Drop dex to 13 (15 with racial bonus)

    I can see picking up PA, but as a TWF is FB really worth it? Based on what I read, it seems thats suited much more toward THF Barbs, unless I'm missing something.

    Thanks for the input on the Critical not being there any longer. I'll certainly take the Halfling Enhancements into consideration.

    6d6 vicious damage per hand and 300+ point crits with Khops, no its absolutely awful. I have a TWF FB Barb just because they are so bad.

    THF for Barbs is currently dead.

    Ah, I had missed the vicious damage part somehow. All I saw was the glancing blow piece. Thanks. Guess I'll be doing a feat exchange or two

    I would pick an Exotic Weapon Proficiency instead of Weapon Focus.

    I like also the skill Listen so you can notice the foes sooner!
