true but i was wondering if there's anything im missing that helps it keep up with them in terms of damage overall- i guess dueling or whatever for the additional +2 could be good, or sneak attack from the rogue, but i'm concerned losing out on damage would result in a much less viable character.
Well, you open up archery, but you close down non-finesse. AC and dex saves go up. Rage usage goes down - only needed for some things like resists. You will take a large DPS hit in a white room. In practice it depends how many turns a melee-only wouldn't get to apply where someone who can do archery and melee can apply damage. It's probably below a fighter built along the same lines in terms of DPS, but with more survivability due to HPs, resists, and eventually unarmored defense.
