zerker vs sk

[wulfgarthegreat]

<div>Anybody else have trouble dueling sks or Is it just me?</div>

[dremtak]

i only have trouble when there harm touch is up other then that pretty even fight<div></div>

[Pegesus]

Yeah.  A real good SK should never use HT in a duel.  Other than that a zerker can pretty much take a SK anytime.  Just pop off rampage first hit em with slay then frenzied blows and have fun rotating out stuns.  They'll drop.  They take a bit longer but they'll drop<div></div>

Equip items with high Disease resistances (look for jewelry primarily as you'll prefer to keep the high mitigation from armor).I was at half health and ate a Harm Touch for lunch, the SK didn't like his tip however <span>:smileywink:</span><div></div>

<div>if you are beating any SK's then they don't know how to play their class. i've never lost to a berserker or guardian (including heavily geared), and never have had to use Harm Touch. just a bad matchup.</div><div> </div><div>but it's true. and i'll expand on it and say an SK that knows how to play their class can beat any fighter or scout  (minus ranger) without harm touch.</div><div> </div><div>(not bashing zerkers, i have a zerker alt and it's a fun class <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> )</div>

Same goes with Pallys when you buff against Divine.Same coin, different side.The last HT I took droped me around a single bubble of health and that was used by the SK out of frustration... that only applies if I don't resist the HT which I've done more than once.</span></div>

I have to agree what has been said here - SK will find it very hard to match zerker in duel w/o HT. I got zerker and SK myself (not lvl 60 thou), I've tried against perhaps our guild's best zerker some dueling, and with my SK he won hands down. The sheer amount of dmg he did in short period of time was overhelming. I was wtfpwned in few seconds.Granted he had some fabled items, and my SK did got cobalt gear, but still.<div></div>

<div></div>mega, maybe you're just really good at dueling...but I have no trouble beating sk's 9 out of 10 times. and that's only if they're in defensive stance...if they're in offensive stance, it's game over from the start.

<div>it depends on who i am fighting. against brawlers and scouts i go defensive and let my reactives win. against warriors, crusaders, priests, and mages i go offensive. i imagine i'd lose if i ever fought a berserker in defensive. the amount of damage i do in defensive is so drastically less.</div>

Well, I never had trouble dueling SK, as the others said, rampage, open wounds and stuns and enjoy.

I agree it's silly for people to expect an SK to just not use their HT in a duel.  I have no qualms about using VoM and UW in duels.  <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>
