Hey guys, I recently lost a character so I have begun to work on his replacement. Right now he is a 7th level Invulnerable Rager set up to be a tank, with Endurance, Combat Expertise, Diehard, and Stalwart.
My current Rage powers are:
Lesser Beast Totem
Superstition
Animal Fury/Ghost Rager/Witch Hunter (Still deciding)
We just got done with a Vampire city, though I know we are going to be facing more Undead as we continue our quest. As such, and because my last character could barely damage the Jiang Shi, I've decided to buy a weapon to backup my natural attacks.
Right now I have purchased the following items
1: +1 Furious Alchemic Silver Monk's Spade
2: Handy Haversack
3: Cloak of Resistance +2
4: Darkwood Armor
5: Vicious Amulet of Mighty Fists
6: Traveler's Anytool
Current stats
18, 10, 20, 13, 14, 8
Current Saves
F12(14), R4, W6(9)
I have 3660 gold left to spend, any ideas?
I was considering covering some of my bases with like a Swarmbane Clasp or picking up some Featherstep Slippers so I can charge over rough terrain.
Oh, only suggest things on the PRD without considering the ACG, the only books allowed are Ultimate Combat, Ultimate Magic, Ultimate Equipment, Core Rule Book, and Advanced Player Guide.

I would get some armor enhancement. A +1 is only 1k.
Feather step slippers are nice for charging characters being able to ignore difficult terrain.
Most players upgrade armor by cost +1 armor>+1 ring of protection/amulet of natural armor> +2 armor> jingasa of the fortunate soldier>dusty rose prism>+3 armor
For saves its +2 cloak>cracked green prism ioun stone>3+ cloak.
Since your dealing with the undead i recommend carrying a potion of mage armor for against incorpral critters. 50gp instead of ghost touch armor.
I don't see much need for a AC, since I have DR 5/- whenever I attack and next level it spikes to DR8/-, as a Barbarian with 10 Dexterity and 20ft of movement unless I wear light armor, I don't think I'm getting much of an AC...ever.
I also don't have enough money to boost my saves or attack roles, further I believe since I am down to 3000gp.
Both good suggestions mind you, just not anything I can manage right now.

Layered Defenses is best defenses.
DR/8 will be nice and part of it. But you still want a mediocre AC or a miss chance to help negate the Iterative attack. If you can get both even better.
When your hit by the enemy you are taking the same amount of damage each hit. The only difference in the attack is the ability to hit. Lest say +6/+1 both at 2d8+18. You still want to only be hit once. As a barbarian I know you come to terms with being hit more often than other frontliners. But you don't need to be taking the entire full attack. You might not manage the AC money now but I suggest you come up with something. If your less on armor at least aim for something like: Rhino Hide You will at least add more gas to your Pounce and add a little more AC against the iterative attack.
