[QUOTE="kerbarian, post: 3077970, member: 40393"] Not only is the build viable, but it can be improved. Take EWP for the waraxe, go with orc instead of half-orc, and add the destruction domain for smite. Also use divine favor + magic weapon instead of 2x magic weapon. For the main hand, that gives 16 (waraxe) + 7 (strength) + 1 (divine favor) + 1 (magic weapon) + 1 (smite) = 26. The off hand only has +3 for strength and loses magic weapon and smite, so that one's 20. Total max damage is 26*3 + 20*3 = 138. Monkey grip would allow better options (huge waraxe + large waraxe as a dwarf), but it requires BAB +1, so it doesn't work for a cleric. You could still get extra damage for this build by going non-core, though -- just replace the destruction domain with hunger. That replaces smite (+3 damage on a crit) with a bite attack that's 22 damage on a crit. So the total max damage would increase to 157. [/QUOTE]
