If you don't mind "cheating" a bit, I would recommend using ShadowKeeper to give your barbarian a second Hammer of Thunderbolts after you get Crom Faeyr. I did that with Minsc in my first BG2 game and changed his proficiency from 2-hand sword to warhammer.

HE ROCKED!!!!!!

And he also mowed down just about any monster we met after that. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

If you don't want to cheat, then I would recommend either Gnasher (+2 club that also imbeds slivers in the target, causing extra damage for the next couple of rounds and preventing spellcasting), or Blackblood (+3 {IIRC} that does extra acid damage to the target). Either of these is good (though I like the slivers from Gnasher since they prevent spellcasting (the damage over the next rounds is automatic). Also, if you install the Weidu Item Upgrade Mod, these two clubs (both of which you can get in Trademeet) can be combined to produce a most wicked weapon (Pritchke +5 club, imbeds slivers, does extra acid damage AND gives wielder 25% immunity to acid).

Those are the best suggestions I have.
