Oh duh, thanks.
Level 4 with GWM looks pretty good though.

Assuming it bumps your Str up to the +4 mod from +3 then it nets you +3 Damage.

So 22 total. Since you do so much damage on a hit you should get quite a few kills so should also trigger GWM bonus action attack quite a bit.

Ya Barbarians are pretty monstrous now, I had no idea. I'm just now getting back into game design after a break for a few months.

Looks like I need to reevaluate balance for my 3PP and homebrew...

Do you happen to have on hand average damage outputs for various classes, or links to threads where I can find that.

I don’t right off but I’d be happy to help create a list.

My personal observation so far is that for melee ~30 DPR at level 5 is good and achievable multiple routes and ~50 DPR is good at level 11.

*Assumes 60% Base to hit.

Ranged probably comes in about 2/3 of that.

Would be wonderful, and ty very much for the benchmarks.
