So I just started Dragon Age and I want to build a Two-Handed Warrior Reaver/Berserker. Or if any of you have suggestions for a good dps warrior specializations. I'm just asking for some suggestions of what talents to go for first what talents are most important first for a good 2h warrior, and if reaver/berserker is a good dps build. Any suggestions and help is welcome as long as its helpful, I'm new to the game and just wondering what a good dps build is. Thanks for the help.

reaver/berserker is very good for dps so first you should get precise striking because it will help you not to miss so often early-mid game.Get the 2 sunders ASAP you will want to spam them because they both hit twice.Then I'd complete the last 2h line because of mighty blows and the last talent.The first line should be gotten last.try to get deathblow come lvl 12 it will solve all your stamina problems
as for your attributes put EVERYTHING in str

I found it helpful to put at least one point into willpower at the beginning because you will not have enough stamina.
I kept putting one point into willpower and two into strength until I had it up to 30, and then I stopped and put everything into strength.
Just don't get the champion spec because it is very overrated for 2 handers since it drains stamina.
The rest of the points you will get from the fade so don't worry about dex,magic, and whatnot.
Anyways, pretty easy to make one. I'm playing one right now on nightmare, and I kill everything that moves. The first talent in reaver is soo freaking good I remember practically healing myself if there are a lot of bodies around (I think I'm healed for like 35 points per body--so its pretty awesome).
Remember to get Starfang as a two handed weapon because its the best one in the game other than the Chasind Great Maul, or whatever that weapon Gorim sells is called. Also, don't wear massive armors because you will be targeted more by enemies (unless its the Warden's Commander Armor which is a really good set).

Reaver/Berserker is actualy significantly better for a Sword and Shield or even better for a Duel Wield warrior.
Reaver really just gives you Devour9Self heal) and Frightening Appearance(A long duration single target stun) the other abilitys especialy the last one are not so useful (Im a fan of aura of pain myself)
Berserker is actualy pretty bad for a Two hander as it only adds+8 damage to all your slow attacks. Of course the last ability for Berserker is totaly useless.
Solid Everest says dont try Champion but it is really solid except the core buff "Rally" eats stamina while in combat in addition to useing a chunk to activate.
Templar is pretty ok for mages and such and allows you to build a suit of armor thats 100% magic resistant.
Honestly for a Two Hand Warrior DPS wise it would be more about survivability then doing the small bonus damage reaver/berserker would give since all your DPS is going to be from abilitys spamming alone, auto attack is patheticaly slow for a two hander.
I Suggest
Reaver/Champion
Templar/Champion
Reaver/Templar
Two hand dosnt come into its own per say until much later into the game so you will have problems dying and doing damage till close to the halfway point in the game.

I have no idea how you think Berserker is bad--it gives you health regen and constraint takes away some of the stamina penalty... Although it does lessen your stamina regen you should be able to still have good upkeep because of all the extra equipment such as: dalish hunter's belt, warden commander's set (you get a stamina regen from it)/wade's superior set, also the executioner's helm gives you a huge boost to stamina--all those equipment mentioned should allow you to shrug off the stamina regen penalty. Templar isn't useful at all because mages are scarce, or you can easily kill them w/ arrow of slaying/mana clash... Also, Templar talents are too much of a drain on stamina. Champion really isn't all that great because reaver and berserker are so benefical.
Stick with reaver/berserker you will not go wrong. I have plenty of stamina at all times on nightmare...

Yeah its better for a two hander to have a bit more survivability then a small damage boost. You do more damage when your not dead is the logic.
Berserker just isnt good for Two Handers since it only adds +8 damage per hit and yes there is a in combat health regen of +1.5 hp every two seconds. That will only help in a HP regen build. By itself its not gonna to be useful in the long run.
Main thing is until close to halfway trhough the game your two hander character is going top be pretty hard to play since intialy they die alot and attack slow until you get more abilitys to use one after another.
Personaly Champion/Reaver is the cookie cutter two hand build for best advantages on this board.
