Playing a level 3 Barbarian here. So far, my damage output is very spikey. I'll have rounds where I just hit something with my hammer and do fairly minor damage, and then ones where I one-shot a skirmisher with Avalanche Strike, and then charge another, crit, and hit it again. According to my DM, it seems to balance out. I should compare with the warlock next session.
I am very, very tough, though. I have a shield of temp HP near-constantly, and I've so far never even used half my surges in a day. (Although my DM doesn't seem to attack me much, for some reason.)
EDIT: Forgot to mention, I feel really, really awesome with him. Totally apart from damage output, he's just simply fun to play. Whacking monsters with a Mordenkrad never gets old.
