Goliath Markings

[Zethex]

How good would you rate the various Goliath Markings feats. By themselves they seem pretty good, but they all require that relatively worthless Auspicious Marking feat. Are they worth spending 2+ feats on for a Barbarian? What typical barbarian feats would you compare them to in worth?

[Adverb]

They're good flavor in that "I am the chosen one" sort of way. They're not highly optimal, but they're not atrocious either.

Typical Barbarian Feats? Mostly charging or intimidation related. Or rage related, I guess.

Power Attack > Leap Attack(Complete Adventurer) - Make Power Attack better.

Battle Jump(Unapproachable East) - Better multipliers on damage(iirc)

Power Attack + Improved Bull Rush > Shock Trooper(Complete Warrior) - Power Attack for Full more reliably.

Intimidating Rage(Complete Warrior) + Imperious Command(Drow of the Underdark) - Arguably keep one foe cowering the entire fight by some interpretations or at least frightened by others.

Blazing Berserker(Sandstorm) and its equivalent from Frostburn for immunity to fire and cold damage, the two most common energy types, when raging as well as gaining the two subtypes.

Improved Trip via Wolf Totem is not uncommon, either, and that allows one to take Knockdown or Knock-Down or Knock-down for a free trip attack (basically) every time one hits an enemy.
