He had been watching them for weeks. Tracking their movements and assessing the threat to his tribe. The tribe was counting on him to provide warnings and information. For years the orcs had free reign but recently the humans had been encroaching on their territory and the tribe was planning on stopping it. They were outnumbered but with his information the tribe stood a chance. Then up ahead he spotted a small force of humans. Moving forward he drew his axes, this group he could take care of himself….

I'd drop the Ranger spell and hence WIS to 8, go for 10 INT and get Terrifying rage instead of Thundering Rage.
Discipline should be maxed, cut on Lore.
Epic Toughness and no EWF? CON 22 and no EDR? Drop Epic Toughness and get EWF (+2 AB). Or drop 2 Great STR for EWF and AS and change Epic Toughness for EDR I, since you've got the CON score for it.
I'd get KD/IKD instead of the second WF and Great Cleave. You'll also need BF, you can easily do without Toughness. _________________

I find its better to be flexible, THINK, and know your enemy.

Your suggestions are good, thanks. But do you not need an INT of 13 for Imp Knockdown?
WHAT!@ Half Orc Meleer and NOT starting strength at 20!!! *faints* _________________
Now, taking a quick look at your build, you should change several feats:
Drop Luck of Heroes for Blind-Fight, it's important unless no one can have Concealment on your server.
Drop Toughness for Knockdown, your HP is high already, KD is better.
Take Epic Damage Reduction! it's just wrong not to take it when you meet the pre-requisites already, it's a powerful feat.
I don't know why you want only pre-epic focus on 2 different weapons, but it's best to drop one and take Epic Weapon Focus only on one (you might as well regain Toughness). _________________ "My name is Thaxll'ssyllia, but you simians may refer to me merely as "Sir", if you prefer a less... syllable intensive workout."

A couple of thoughts:
Ranger needs WIS of 11 so I can't drop this any further.
My weapn focuses were for two weapon fighting. On the server I made this for I can play a Minotaur with Great Axe in one hand and Battle Axe in the other.
Knockdown, EDR, and blind fight do sound like good ideas.
Any other thoughts on how to get my AB up higher. I have dropped two great strength for Epic Weap Focus and Armor Skin (I am used to NWN2 where AS is not as useful).

Uh, start as a Barbarian then immediately go Ranger.

That explains it... then get EWF in both.

My bad about IKD btw, I'm just not that accustomed to play anything with less than 14 INT... I love skillpoints.

Already covered that. You could drop 1-2 lvls of Barbarian for Assassin maybe to grab Tumble as a class skill (and +4 AC) and UMD. You'll want to raise your INT as I suggested if you do so. _________________ They can't stop us Let them try For Heavy Metal We will die
I'd be tempted to go R21/B17/F2 for an extra feat, even with the XP penalty. _________________ " -- They give birth astride of a grave, the light gleams an instant, then it's night once more."

Not crazy about evil characters, sorry. But I will try the INT.

How would it work to go R21/Bb15/F4 for a few extra feats. This guy could use it I think.

If you don't mind the XP penalty, you can take Bard or Rogue instead. IMO, getting +4 AC and UMD is more than worth it. _________________ They can't stop us Let them try For Heavy Metal We will die
