<DIV>Hi all. New player from DAoC. Just hit 20 and faced with a choice of upgrading either Anger, Wild Swing, Wound or Taunting blow to adept II quality. Anger will do berserk state when used. Wild swing will interupt casting. Wound will cause a debuff of strength. Taunting blow will increase hate effect. Also my armor is blue to me now. Any quests I can do or drops for a full set of yellow armor?</DIV>

<DIV>I took the Anger upgrade, for the extra chance to berserk, and for the added hate value of having an Adept II taunt.</DIV>

<P>Debuffs work as taunt, and so does extra DPS, it just depends really, if you tank alot, yeah, take the extra taunt, if you dont tank alot and like to play a DPS role, take the Wound.</P> <P>Taemek Frozenberg 46th Berserker<BR>16th Outfitter<BR>Everfrost Server<BR><BR>Enlightened Aonein Amillion ( retired )<BR>70th Stone Fist of The Celestial Fist<BR>Five Rings on Luclin Server</P>

Now I enjoy our DPS more than you can imagine but if you wanted to fill a DPS role why would you pick a Zerker?

I took Taunting Blow. An Adept 2 taunt (anger would be great, but I figured I'd get more use out of Taunting Blow, as it taunts, does damage, and I beleive, doesn't share a timer with anything else. At 31, Anger will be replaced, and Wound will be replaced around... 28-29? <div></div>

<DIV>I took Taunting Blow. I still use it at 43, all the other skills will have upgrades and you will stop using them (better dots in the future, better AE taunts, etc.)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Taunting Blow dont have any upgrade, has a low power requirement, doesnt share timer with any skill  and its still useful at 50.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Regarding armor, you can start doing your  Armor Quest at level 20.  It's good equipment until level 29, after that you should start looking for some crafted armor.  If youre good-sided,  the NPC that gives quest is at Qeynos Harbour,  near clockwork plaza, on your right (cant remember name).</DIV><p>Message Edited by Davish_Darkwolf on <span class=date_text>04-03-2005</span> <span class=time_text>05:28 PM</span>

<DIV>Ian something, he's standing outside the building in the nw corner accross from the bank near the clocktower, his family likes to leave their stuff on a bunch of mobs, it's a fun way to spend your 20's the XP and rewards are great for the levels.</DIV>

I also took the taunting blow one. It's been quite useful in general for building and maintaining hate & in group encounters if one monster starts to wander toward the healer. <div></div>

Go for the Wound upgrade, It gets replaced by Vicious Blow soon, but the others all get replaced as well.
