Why waste a armor slot on the feet for DA when you naturally get DA? You should wear heca feet for the extra STR. The Slow+ will help survivability by not taking hate as quickly.

Why PM? Can't we just have him post here for everyone's enjoyment? And lol at the thought that Nabis knows how to check his PM's (he might not even know what a PM is..)

Seriously though, if you ask a question like this, you should at least put a little thought into it. Maybe saying something along the lines of "I was thinking x for y reason, would this be good or should I do something else?". Warrior's merits arn't something to keep you up at night.

5/5 STR
8/8 Great Axe
5/5 Berserk
5/5 Aggressor
-
5/5 Warrior's Charge
?/5 Tomahawk (at least unlock it)
?/? whatever else

Being 100% serious you need to have Double attack to at least 4 and probably 5.

Pretty sure it's been mathed as the more DA+ the less gain you get from it. Unlike Haste where more is better.

I really see no reason to not have 5/5 DA, sure the returns are diminishing, but it's still the best thing in Cat1.(agg merits are silly, pizza agogo!)

Edit: "Best" not discounting Berserk merits, just don't leave DA hanging for the sake of Agg merits.
