If you have questions you can give me a tell in game (I'm on a bit) to /tell unrest.thayne
 
 
I played Berserker in Beta up to 43 and also did raid content stuff with a beta buffed 50 Zerker. So I was able to test a lot of the skills. SMILEY And I'm always willing to give help so no worries bout that. SMILEY
 
oh and just a little note. I only played Evil so I really don't know anything on the good sides subclass quest. I can give some info on Evil tho.

How is your damage vs survivability? Need a lot of heals?

I can tank just fine atm in Fallen Gate as the main tank. I do a darn good job atm at tanking. My AC is high enough and can hold the agro. So for group fighting we are good tanks. Now when it comes to Raid situations you will want a Guardian because they have more defensive skills now.

Do you suggest dual wield or 2-handers?

Ya know the silly thing is there is no real good Dual Wield or 2hander at 21. So I'm just using the Skullcrusher and a Shield until we can find some better weapons. Though I will probably start using the Shing Brass Halberd when we go workon that quest at 25.
 
Really though I believe its what you feel your doing the most damage with. And until I find better weapons I'm just using a Skullcrusher atm from Fallen Gate.

Can you verify if Berserkers can wear Vanguard Armor or not?

Actually, my main question was this:
 
1) What does going berserk mean exactly? How bad is the defense penalty?
2) How long does it last? For example, there is a skill which is an AOE melee attack that makes you go berserk... for how long? And the lev 20 Focus Rage skill makes you go berserk for how long? Are you pretty much berserk all the time in combat?
 
Thanks for any help!

Hello Thayne
 
I am a lvl 7 fighter atm and want to go the bersker way. I have a bit of noob question (maybe) but at what lvl will I be able to dual wield?
 
Thanks for an answer!

1) Berserk makes you lose a little AC, but not much to really be noticeable for me.
2) Focus Rage is the skill you turn on that will allow you to proc a Berserk. Berserk lasts about 10secs I think everytime you proc it. We have skills that can make it go off at times also. Later on we have a skill that makes you go Berserk whenever you use it.
 
Level 10 is when we can start Dual Wielding.
 
And atm yes we can wear Vanguard unless something changes.

No In beta we could wear Vanguard type armor. Heres a link to my Berserker in Beta http://clem.mscd.edu/~mitchcha/5.jpg that was wearing some Rubicite and some higher level Vanguard pieces. They changed it to Heavy Armor at some point in beta and I'm glad they did. Because we are tanks and we should have the AC. We just aren't the Defensive tanks like the Guardians are. We are just the Offensive version.

Has anyone done the Berserker quest for FP? I have talked to other classes and they all have been ported into an instance for their final part of the quest by the NPC. But my NPC won't port me and tells me I have to go into Serpent Sewers storagre room. If that is the case, why does every other class have a solo instance but we need a group to get to ours? Any information might help, thanks.

Each class had a different designer for their subclass quest. Some may have had the same, but in the overall some of the qeusts were made by different Devs. So thats why some of the subclass quests are different. You just have to search in Serpents Sewer for a Storage Room. Take a group. Exp a little in there, and you should find it.

So the storage room is an insitance in the sewers? Do I enter the instance alone or with my group? Don't want a complete spoiler but I want to be able to tell my group if I do it alone or not. Thanks.
