Group-friendly barbarian (pathfinder)

[OldTrees1]

I would recommend a Goliath Barbarian wielding a Spiked Chain with Combat Reflexes, Knockback, and Improved Trip.

Your MO would be deciding where your enemies will be on the battlefield.

Goliath Barbarian 3
Take the Goliath Barbarian Racial Substitution level a 1st (Rage gives Large size, +6Str, and +4Con)
Take the Spirit Lion totem Alternate Class feature at 1st (grants Pounce so you can charge in to trip/knockback everyone)
Take the Wolf Totem Alternate Class feature at 2nd (grants Improved Trip)

Feats: (2 flaws + feats from HD)
Combat Reflexes, Power Attack, Improved Bullrush, Knockback
