The Mad Killer (Barbarian 10/Battlerager 20/Frenzied Berserker 10)

Pros:
A boatload of hit points, especially if you reroll.
10 Battle Rages, 3 Barbarian Rages, 5 Frenzies and 3 Inspire Frenzies Per day
All the Rage improvement abilities. Rage Stats become VERY formidable.
Overwhelming, Devastating Critical, and high strength to boot
Basically, hugely powerful but incredibly specialized melee force
All three epic DR feats, could potentially have more inherent DR if you went Barb 20/FB 10/BR 20 instead, I'll post that build soon.

Cons:
Pathetic Wisdom and Charisma, so terrible will save
Low, low AC, made even lower by rage
Almost no skill points to speak of
Can't do anything but kill and kill.
