If you stack a few +x to attack roll items, even with great weapon mastery, the accuracy problem is almost unnoticeable. Also, multiclassing thief is strong for any class that gains bonus action attacks. Get ready to be a killing machine.

Frenzied Strain really killed my enthusiasm for this Class, getting a STACKING -1 Penalty with every Attack is just too punishing.

I don't know if this is a bug or intended, but in my playthrough, frenzied strain resets if I don't use or miss an attack with the frenzied strike. For example, I hit with frenzied strike and gain a stack, next round I have a -1, and I miss with frenzied strike. The round after, I don't have frenzied strain anymore. It works no matter how many stacks you have (at least up to 3 in my testing). If this is a bug, I hope they keep it because it seems like a nice middle ground to have some drawback for using the frenzied strike and having no cost at all.

Seeing an issue where I sometimes can't use frenzied strike. It'll be a new turn, i'll have the bonus action available and hovering over it just says "Available next turn" and it is usable "Per turn"
Currently very bugged, if you use enraged throw you will somehow also gain a strain, eventho you shouldn't.

What's the slashing damage for, what if I use a staff with frenzied strike
it is really killed the melee build!!!
-1 attack roll penalty is to big mostly when you use gwm feat! -5 and -1/attacks is too big even if you use +3 weapons...
i made some tests and with -3 strains you get around 21%-27% chance!!! with ADVANTAGE!!!!!!
may a not 2 handed build could work cause have no -5 gwm penalty... so you can use 5x times in a battle
but if you really want to use then use hierlings and the magic weapon spell to get +3 enchantment! :/ and you can get 3 hierlings so get +9 enchantment... + can use the drakethrout glaive and get elemental buff +1enchantment... o get +10 enchantment and 1d4 elemental attack ;) (yes it is actually a ''cheat'' )
