[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 2971316, member: 2011"] Karmic Strike, Combat Reflexes, and Improved Trip. The difference between the Fighter and the Barbarian is that the Fighter is -4 AC, but the Barbarian is -4 AC and -4 to hit. If the Barbarian gets up from the ground, he goes right back down again quickly, either when he attacks the Fighter or when the Fighter gets in his full round attack. Plus, the Fighter gets to attack with his weapon for most of his attacks (he only loses one if he fails to trip) plus many of the Barbarian's attacks. The Barbarian only gets to attack with his weapon on his own attacks. Granted, a Barbarian could take these feats as well, but it is more costly for the Barbarian. So, the Fighter will be able to Power Attack or use other feats to gain even more of an edge. The Barbarian is still limited to 6 or 7 feats pre-epic levels. [/QUOTE]
