[QUOTE="RickVigorous, post: 4947183, member: 5141"] Obviously, I can't speak for Markn, but here's one way to do it: take a dwarf fighter 16 with the battlerager technique and the pit fighter paragon path. Use Brash Strike. Starting stats are 16 Str, 16 Con, 16 Wis, with stat bumps going to Str and Con. Assume a +4 weapon. On a hit with Brash Strike, you'll do [W] + Str + Con + Wis + 4, or [W] + 17. Let's assume the weapon is a maul, so the [W] is 2d6, average 7. Battlerager adds 2 damage whenever you have temps. Average damage on a hit is now 26. Add in any of the following: iron armbands of power, weapon focus, marked scourge. Heck, add them all: let's say +2 for the armbands, +2 for weapon focus, and +3 for marked scourge. Average damage is now 33. I have a 15th level warlord whose average damage on a hit with an at will is 32.5 (bloodclaw fullblade +4 and +4 iron armbands of power are his only damage boosts).
