Two-handed warrior vs Barbarian in terms of DPS?

[Coocoodas]

Who performs better in DPS?

[Elfie]

Best dps is dual dagger rogue with minmax dex. Dunno if that counts as 2-handed warrior.

Barbarias and warriors are poor dps, unfortunately. Only good for tanking purposes.

All else being equal, I would say a Barbarian. You can get an extra bite attack (more attacks, more DPS), and late game you can get Lethal Accuracy.

That said, I think they'd both be fairly similar. Although I don't think they're poor DPS, really -- I have Amiri with a greataxe and she's regularly among my party's top damage dealers (rogues may do more damage in ideal circumstances, but they're squishy and do need allies).

The two handed figher outclasses the barbarian pretty heavily, especially in late game. The rage doesn't match up to the permanent weapon training bonus, and definitely not if you make it all the way to 20 and get the capstone.
If it was a real barbarian, instead of the unchained the barbarian, that'd be different, but it's not. Fighters are just better than barbarians in the video game.

The good about barb. You get full bab and pet. Which for me then is an ez choice. Best dps. No idea. But the barb is more mobile which once again i prefer. Running mad dog amiri atm works great. Pets do the tanking

How do you Mad Dog Amiri? You can't dip into a sublcass?

I go MT Amiri with Animal Domain, is that what you mean?

Nah i litteraly made her a merc. Erased her barb spec and got her mad dog. Then i nerfed her exp to 0 to act as a merc. That way it doesnt feel like cheating cause you can get like 5 mercs at lv 1 anyway

So the idea is my druid as Main also gets a pet and me and Amiri Spear the enemies infront of pets

Not counting Mad Dog, I'd say probably the fighter does slightly more. Also not counting weapon mastery at level 20, because you'll never actually get that.

Fighter has Weapon Training to match the Barbarian's rages, he has Weapon Specailization and Greater Weapon Specializtion to match any extra damage the Barbarian gets from rage powers. Two Handed Fighter specifically has Overhead Chop and Backswing, adding 2x his strength mod instead of 1.5x on all attacks, and later Greater Power Attack as well. The Bite Attack from Animal Fury for Barbarian takes a lot of extra penalties, so it doesn't really do much.

The mod on nexus let's you change companions from level 0.

I've got a lawful good aasimar paladin of imodae for Valerie :)

Barbarian with reckless stance has more AB than fighter with all his training, so "heavily outclasses" really sounds silly. Also barb has uncanny dodge, high speed and good DR, solid class aswell.

Barbarians are about as useful as rogue for tanking purposes.

[Kshahdoo]

Barbarian with Endless War rocks.

nok-nok destroys everything, i dont even think you need MORE dps from a single character. Rogues also have injuries, which greatly boost your party overall ( aswell as barbs inspire ferocity ) Dispelling blades, opportunist ( amazing dps talent ) and so on. IF you conclude value of class based on his damage roll dice, you are doing things wrong IMO. Also you can utilize rogues stealth and great invisibility to basically hit against flat-footed all time on top of the fact that their accuracy is one of the highest.

Tell that to my Amiri :D

[Slap Happy Pappy]

Warriors are monster DPS if you consider weapon skills. They WILL hit. Every attack, every round. Power attack on a two hander adds a V E R Y large thud.

In this game, however, rogues uber alles.
