I'm not sure if this belongs in the beginner box, but since I've never posted here before I'm not all that familiar. Either way,

I just recently started a campaign, we began at level 6 and one of my players got the new handbook and immediately chose this class.
Right after taking a look at his character sheet I noticed just how much health and attack bonus he had, which is to say almost 60 and apparently a plus 16 to every attack, but he also has higher damage on every attack than any other character in the party by far, easily outdoing the fighter with vital strike and the rogue, who both have far less armor and health than him at the same time.

I just don't understand how this class is balanced, as the absolute only weakness I can find to it is pure magic, but since I haven't had them encounter any casters yet, I'm not sure if he has some trick for those as well. I'm just looking for advice for how to deal with how absurdly powerful this class seems to me right now.

His character sheet, if anyone is wondering. I did not actually look through it to see if he spent all his money correctly (started with 16k as it is what was recommended for starting at level 6)
