[QUOTE="Burticusb, post: 6851651, member: 6791242"] I'd think that it is close, yes, Frenzy will do more damage, but they have to deal with exhaustion... something I find to be a huge penalty. And really, the damage is not that much larger, considering the bonus' that the extra attack gets will be near the same. Even if it is higher, exhaustion is bad stuff... And yes, bear totem has more resistances, but they don't resist as much damage since the Battlerager gets the extra 5 Temp HP per round. As for the DEX + CON combo for super high base AC, yeah that is cool and it works, but good luck combo'ing that with GWM... since there are zero Finesse Heavy Weapons out there. Unless you have all three stats super high (STR/DEX/CON), which makes you pretty MAD. And maybe I'm a bit biased on this due to the fact that I typically play AL games and any other games I play are normally point buy as well. In my experience a strength build totem barbarian will typically be at the same AC as the Battlerager anyways. [/QUOTE]
