Hello all and thanks for reading. I have made a high lvl character for an old campaign we are introducing to pathfinder and using pure pathfinder rules. No 3.5 stuff plz. I see this character as a somewhat insane half elf running around the battlefeild and disarming people,cleaving, and hounding spell casters. I would like for him to use a ranseur for sure and get his disarm as high as possible. at 17th lvl his stats are as follows str18,dex18,con14,int13,wis14,char10.What i would like to focus on is what feats to choose since I pretty much know what magic items and all that jazz I will be buying.The reason for 2 levels of barb is im trying to get his speed up without wasting feats on fleet. He will only be wearing medium armor(most likely breastplate).Reach is extremely important so i will be using ranseur with a spiked gauntlet for threat reasons. So plz post the feats you would go with and why ,and thank you for the time as all help and viewpoints are greatly appreciated.
let me point out a couple things.
By taking 2 barb levels you cost yourself a Fighter feat, and Fighter advances by so doing. In return, you gained 2 rounds of rage a day, a movement bonus that doesn't work in heavy armor, and not much else.
Remove the Barbarian levels and take back Fleet. You gain more then you give up.
Take the weapon mastery feats so that you can Power Attack with virtually no penalty.
You're going to need Expertise (another reason you don't want barbarian levels) and Improved Disarm, possibly improved Trip. You want weapons that give you a bonus to one or both of these. Flail is probably your best for disarms, ransuer is fine for trips.
You're also goign to need some means to enlarge yourself, as size bonuses are more vital and cmbat manuvers generally less effective in Pathfinder.

Fleet only works in Light or No Armour, so it's said. Wouldn't help out either build unless they're going around in a mithril breast plate or lighter.
A barbarian/fighter in mithril full plate also still gets it's fast movement. Not only that but it's also expensive, not that you and your 410,000 gold should feel too much of a hit.
Definitely want all the disarm feats you can afford to get, weapon focus, etc. Power attack, Cleave, Lunge, the new anti-spellcaster fighter feats, Step Up. Get the No Escape rage power to justify your Barbarian 2 a bit. Extra Rage might not be a bad investment, though at 17th level a good party shouldn't be in combat for more then a few rounds unless your DM is exceptionally brilliant. If you've got Seekers of Secrets (the Pathfinder Society book) there was a great feat in there called Friendly Switch, which could be useful.
Get a good longbow as well, composite for your non-raging strength so you have more options for long range combat. 2.8k for a +1 that will cover your strength.
