[QUOTE="chitzk0i, post: 4632387, member: 34584"] What weapon are you using? I don't recall the levels for all of these, but here are some relevant ones in no particular order. Iron Armbands of Power: +2 damage to all your attacks except Come and Get It. Take it, love it. Level 6, so probably the only item aside from the Big Three you'll have. Boots of Adept Charging: these let you shift 1 after a charge. Then you can shift 1 on you next turn and charge again. Better for a barbarian, but there you go. Horned Helm: +1d6 damage on charges. Take this after you get Iron Armbands Valiant Weapon: +1d8 damage on every charge. The daily power is not very relevant for you, so you may want to go with something else. Farslayer weapon: Standard action at-will: make a melee basic attack on an enemy within 5 of you. Cool since it extends the range of your mark and frees you from buying a ranged weapon. (I like to say my fighter is closing one eye and saying "I'm crushing your head!" The monster says, "Why is this working!?") Alternately, buy a +1 Grasping javelin. You can yank monsters to you from across the room. Inescapable weapon: Hate missing? Gives you +1 attack for each miss, up to the enhancement bonus. Stout weapon: Great for high Con types like you. Adds your con mod [i]per plus[/i] to damage on a crit. Bloodiron weapon: best crit damage period. Effectively 2d10 per plus. Does Dwarven go on plate armor? If yes, take it. Veteran's armor is also a solid choice. Amulet of False Life: minor action gives you your healing surge value in temp hp. Fantastic panic button. Cloak of Survival: A solid choice for always on resist fire and cold. Really, just take your time and read through the Adventurer's Vault. Make note of the stuff that seems cool and/or related to stuff you do. Then narrow down your choices in each slot. Don't be afraid to pick items that are cool and flavorful instead of 'optimum'. That said, Iron Armbands of Power are [i]sweet[/i]. [/QUOTE]
