Please, help me not suck at GWF

Calling all pros, i need help! I have leveled my GWF to 32. I love my GWF...flaws and all.
But I feel like I may be doing something wrong.

Last night I ran "Strait to Helm" skirmish with My 32 GWF, My son's 32 Cleric, a 30 GF and a 31 TR

I was very active though out the event, Popping Overpower every chance I got and burning Encounter Cooldowns as fast as reasonably possible. BUUUUT at the end, the GF had out damaged me by 50k. To add insult to injury I inspected him and his gear was HAMSTER, he had 5 pcs with empty enchant slots.

What gives? am I doing something wrong? I ran with with Flourish, Restoring Strike, Roar. My gear is all around lvl 30 and focused on power/crit, i also had my cleric out the whole mission instead of the Purple Wolf.

Any tips or pointers?

    Hezaxe, I have this problem and much more with my GWF. This class was just not ready for release, its that simple. I hit level 40 with my GWF yesterday and something weird happened, I suddenly started getting spanked by mobs that were 2+ level's LOWER than me, yes I say lower, meaning lower in level then me. There is something fundamentally wrong with class.

    yeas gwf is bad ,they nerf him to much for bw4 and they brought that same version of gwf in ob ,at end game u will be able to be second or third on total damage but there are 30+mobs all time to kill and cw will be lot more better then u so u wont be able to find team for dungeons easy since everyone takes cw

    Yeah, it doesn't seem like the class is very flushed out. I've been playing one for about 30 levels and I'm seriously thinking about just switching to cleric until they iron tanking out more.

    all this has happened to me

    i dominate in t2s

    dont judge things and mass heavy judgements like 'not ready for release' when you havent even finished the leveling process yet

    My GWF is level 32 and TR are the only class I generally expect not to beat in numbers when I get in a group..
    My personal opinion, I would get rid of either flourish or restoring strike for mighty leap. Its nice for getting right into the mix as soon as a fight starts, then AoE them down.
    What Daily are you using? Slam is pretty much the way to go, IMO.

    Daily is exclusively Slam. Also My cleric was getting lots of aggro so i spent alot of time killing imps that were on him.

    Is that the nature of things for us GWF at end game? chasing down adds while GF beat on the Boss?

    I do know that I haven't maxed out ranks in my Encounters yet, so maybe that's hampering me. Any advise on stat weighting?

    Should i be stacking Power for leveling?

    Thanks for responding, could you maybe give me us some general tips on how you dominate? what encounter/dailys you use? What stats you go for in gear? etc. thanks in advance

    you need at least 1400 power, 200+ crit and 200+ armor pen around that level..
    dont forget to update your weapon as well
    get to level 35 and get wms and start wrecking
