Yeah, tons of rage powers. Between archetypes and new rage powers, barbarians got a ton of love in APG.

YAY! Thanks.. could you "spoil" something?

 

[Gorbacz]

Sure. It seems like Robilar was a Barbarian after all:

Come and Get Me (Ex): While raging, as a free action the
barbarian may leave herself open to attack while preparing
devastating counterattacks. Enemies gain a +4 bonus on
attack and damage rolls against the barbarian until the
beginning of her next turn, but every attack against the
barbarian provokes an attack of opportunity from her, which
is resolved prior to resolving each enemy attack. A barbarian
must be at least 12th level to select this rage power.

Nice! Thanks!

Barbarian + Rage + Pounce (Rage power, 10th level needed) = one serious momma of a charge.

They restored the pounce too? This is just great, the barbarian needed it! Now at high level the fighter will deliver devastaing blow with his techniques, but the barbarian will pull the weight of his ferocity. Great flavour (and great a**kicking too!).

I liked the core barbarian, because of the sudden bursts of strenght and his unexpected maneuvers (like knockback). The fighter tripped 4 enemies in a row, but the barbarian jumped at the neck of the big one!

Nevertheless, there was something missing.. good job, Paizo.

I wonder if there is somewhere a replacement of the old Cleave mechanics, maybe this one for the barbarian too (I said barbarian because maybe fits better for flavour).

NEEEEED hardcover.

Specifically, a Barbarian needs to choose Beast Totem Rage power and then Greater Beast Totem Rage Power. The latter grants Pounce.

Thanks.. I directly jumped into the spoiler thread in the Paizo messageboard ... wow. Just wow.
