[QUOTE="tiornys, post: 5560315, member: 17633"] Weapon Talent is definitely superior to Battlerager if you're looking to play up the striker side of a Fighter. A Mordenkrad-wielding hammer build is very good at damage. However, a likely superior option is the Gouge, which has a similarly huge [W], but draws on axe and spear support instead of hammer support. Your consistency drops a bit, but you can have better balanced defenses since you don't need as much Con. This also makes it easier to use Wis-based options like Marked Scourge. Significantly, you get access to the triple attack Rain of Blows, which is potentially the highest single-target damage option on the entire Fighter encounter list. You can find a damage-focused fighter build (The Crusher) in [url=http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75882/24861409/Harder_than_a_Rock:_The_Fighters_Handbook&post_num=15#448871945]this post[/url] on the WotC CharOp forum. t~ [/QUOTE]
