Frenzied Brute

Frenzied Brute (L20 Barbarian)
The frenzied brute is an all damaged based human barbarian in the mould of Conan. Running around with a Two-handed weapon, slashing and smashing things left and right, absorbing punishment with its high hp, damage reduction and solid reflex saves. The use of Uncanny Dodge allows it the versaility survive trap hits other classes may not be able to handle. The brute can use its Two-hander to pull the attention of the several mobs and soak up the damage and endure better then most. Like all Barbarians, you will rely heavily on your party for support, so this build is recommened most to players who enjoy group dynamics and will most often be grouped with support classes. Though it will work reasonable well to solo easily up to mid levels, or even beyond with smart use of hirelings.

While such a build may not be as damaging as a dwarven or half-orc version, it is more versatile and is able to allow a new player to have a greater variety of options thanks to it's extra feat and lack of stat penalties.
