Dunno if anyone posted it before but it is now: "Increase offence of the group and grants the berserker a rare chance to go berserk on a successful attack."

was just reading the new descriptions... I noticed two kind of comments :group A:bloodlust "... grants the berserker a rare chance to go berserk on a succesful attack."vicious blow : "deals slashing DOT and grants a chance to berserk on each hit"focus rage : "allows the berserker to sometimes go berserk when taking damage"group B:furious onslaught : "a multi-enemy attack that cause the berserker to go berserk"baloks challenge : "ranged taunt that increase hate and cause the berserk to go berserk"coup de grace : "an extra attack that grants a short berserk after the death of an enemy"so i wonder... are the skills from group B causing an automatic berserk, and the skills from group A only a rare chance ?PS: i take the change in bloodlust text as yet another raised middle finger from the devs to the berserker community.

Group B suggests guaranteed berserk mode, but they only give a chance, a rare chance in fact-with so many skills in the game not working properly its hard to tell if its supposed to be like that or not

To the people STILL whining about the "nerf":
 
Not sure what game you're playing, but I'm berserking just fine at level 33. Focus Rage and Bloodlust up at the same time pretty much guarantee that I'm berserking around 60% of the time, if not more. Also, I feel as if I'm taking better than ever. Don't like it? Quit or reroll and stop complaining so much.

Baloks's challenge does cause you to go berserk every time you use it. Unfortunately it's duration is about 2 seconds.

what you see is balok's chalenge icon, not the berserk icon.;

Glad its going well for you, everyone else finds bloodlust procs berserk a max of once per 3 minute duration of buff, but yes focus rage is working very nicely...sadly this really doesnt help when in secondary tank position trying to be 'DPS mode'

I was under the impression that during the time that balok's challenge icon was up, we were effectively berserked.Are you saying that is not the case?

I was under the impression that the icon flashed giving a chance to berserk, i may be wrong and maybe it is berserk with its own icon...but its duration is so short its hard to tell, making it pretty useless either way.

Using the skills that give a chance of berserk flashes an icon for the time the quantic probability to go berserk is up, but we are not berzek at that moment. i'll bet my money that we are only berserk when the "berserk" icon is up, and we have the good old Red Glow flashing.So really not that often.

I'm not coming down on either side of this issue because I admit I might not have played the character effectively but when I fight now I seem to be Beserk a vast majority of the time ... shoot sometimes I have 2 beserks going at the same time. I have noticed I take a LOT more damage per battle and I seem to be stunned quite a bit more ... but I can still solo yellows easily. I'm not sure that can be said of the other classes.
