Thoughts on my barb 

Ok so here are the bare bones..

Race: Human
Class: Barbarian

Str: 18
Dex: 15
Con: 12
Int: 8
Wis: 8
Chr: 8

Health: 36

Feats:
1. Two Weapon Fighting
1. Toughness

enhancements
1. Barb Action Boost
2. Barb Con
3. Human Con
4. Whatever You want

With every Feat possible get Toughness. Stick with Medium Armor (something that will allow you to draw on your dex bonus). Use two weapons, I personally am going to go with one frost one fire just because I like the idea behind it.
One of your items should be geared for Constitution pluses, one to strength (I.e items in the splinterskull quest) and your other items should build either on HP or Damage Reduction.

RE: Thoughts on my barb 

I'm no expert, but don't you need a bit more Con than that? Aren't HP important?

RE: Thoughts on my barb 

I had the same thought, but here was my rationale

1. At the levels where you can enhance a state (4 and 8) you can up that to base fourteen.
2. Then with enhancements you can get +1 human con boost and like +3 barb con boost so that puts you at an 18.
3. Then with magical items you can get like +3 more, maybe more I am not sure. I do know for sure that you can get a +3 con from splinterskull quest but after that Its possible for a lot more I suppose.
4. Add in an item (or two if they stack, not sure of this) with false/greater life on them.
5. Throw in Toughness x4 and you can still end up with a lot of HP.
6. Also enhancing upon your natural damage reduction means taking a lot less damage thus effectively increasing your HP by that much more per hit.

With this build you will just have to be careful for the first few levels, making sure to have a cleric on hand and making sure not to think you are a tank. Leave Tanking to the Pali's and Toughness Fighters. This build will throw out a lot of damage, quickly.

Welcome to criticism because by far I know that I don't know it all.

Edited: For 6th point

Also, upon leveling, the barbarian gets a d12 for hit points, better than any other class. I personally have multi-classed mine into a level of fighter to get the heavy armor proficiency.

Ahhhhh you are using your barb for damage. I see. I use mine to tank (when there isn't another) and to be a secondary tank.

I don't like to multiclass very often, i find that "Pure Breeds" satisfy my whole "Specified Purpose" feeling most often than not.
