So I'm making this fighter, and I've run out of feats.

First Post
If you didn't guess yet, I'm making a fighter and I've run out of feats. He's a level 21 human. Barbarian 1, fighter 20. So that means I have 20 feats to take care of.
My stats are (before items):
Str 22
Dex 16
Con 20
Int 16
Wis 14
Cha 16
(we rolled 3d10 drop the lowest)

So the feats I have so far are:
1. Weapon focus
2. Weapon Spec
3. Greater Weapon Foc.
4. Greater Weapon Spec.
5. Improved Critical
6. Toughness (It's a variant on the feat we use. You gain HP = your level+1, and +1 Hp per level after taking this feat)
7. Close Quarters Fighting
8. Extra Rage
9. Dodge (another variant. Gain +1 AC instead of choosing a foe each round)
10. Power Attack
11. Improved Init
12. Extended Rage
13. Exotic Weapon - Jovar
14. Cleave
15. Great Cleave
16. Power Critical
17. Melee Weapon Mastery
18. Weapon Supremacy
19. Epic toughness (variant again. You gain +3HP per level +3)

As you can see from the exotic weapon feat I'm using a Jovar (like the great sword only the crit range is 18-20 instead of 19-20). So I'm looking for one more feat (or replacement feats if you guys can think of some better stuff). I'd REALLY like to get one that gives you 2x your Str mod for using a two handed weapon instead of just 1.5x. So if anyone knows of a feat like that or can think of one last feat for me, that would be great.

What books are allowed? I can tell CWarrior and PH2 from your list, but any others?

As far as 2x str bonus goes, I don't know of any feat to do that. In the 3.0 Sword and Fist (iirc), the Master Samurai prestige class got that with bastard swords (katanas). Maybe use that as a reference to make it into a high level feat?
 

Any books are allowed. I'll add that to the first post.

And yeah, I think I might run it by my DM to see if that feat's allowed.
I think some acceptable prereqs. to that would be:
Str 15, Weapon Focus, Weapon Specialization, Greater Weapon Focus, Greater Weapon Specialization, Fighter level 12
What do you think?

In 3.5e a level of Exotic Weapon Master class allows you to do the same.

But not for Jovar. Only for one-handed exotic weapon used in two-hands.

So, Batard Sword/Katana, Dwarven Waraxe, Great Scimitar (Sandstorm), Elven Thinblade (Races of Wild), etc. would be the weapon of choice.
 

So one question I've got: what was your CON at first level? One you might consider is taking Roll With It (from Savage Species) a bunch of times. It requires a 20 CON and Toughness, but it grants 2/- damage reduction, AND you can take it multiple times. If you can take it at 1st level and are willing to sink a bunch of feats into it:

1, 1(Human), 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 = DR 16/-

There are luck feats in Complete Scoundrel.
There are Martial Study/Stance feats in ToB.
Get Psionic feats with Hidden Talent feat/Wild Talent from Expanded Psionic Handbook.
Complete Champion has neat Devotion feats like the Animal One that grants +8 (for your level) Sacred bonus to Strength stat for 1 minute.
One/day (per time taken).


Third party:
Pathfinder frrom Paizo company has a feat called Overhand Chop that allows 2x Str, but the initial feat is as standard action (so no full attacks):
you'd need the second feat Backhand swing in feat tree for full attacks.
 


I would personally swap out dodge, extend rage, great cleave and maybe even cleave itself.

Bring in combat reflexes and robilar's gambit. Maybe bring in the fighter16 substitution feature from PHB2 (costs a feat), as well as the line of feats which let you make an AoO if the enemy does/does not do a particular action.
