Thanks for doing this. Not a whole lot of build videos

[@damienlange7497]

Would love to see BT entropy. whether it is good or not is another topic, but the IDEA of it sounds really fun. It has been on my mind for a very long time and something i would love to try. I just dont know the build since there is 0 information on it, which makes me hesitate in trying.

[@gameghiskhan]

FINE!!! Who needs level ten gems or a good credit score anyways!?

1622 Salvation BT player here with atrophine my ult does around 700M. I Pump big number and since there's alot of phases i tend to prefer salvation dmg compared to hallucination. love the guide keep it up

[@gameghiskhan]

700 M!!!! Damn man. I feel sorry for those bosses. Man I do miss that about salvation.

[@teddanville6996]

In the DPS combo, i know that using Bloody rush at the end is more optimal cooldown wise, but i realize that 40% of the time the boss would do a pattern that waste your time and you cannot cast Bloody rush inside red dust duration. So IMO casting Bloody rush right after red dust give you higher chance to hit it, even though it mess with your cooldown a bit (1 sec every rotation). It really depend on the boss fight, for easier boss fight like Akkan g2,g3 or Thaemine g3 we should put bloody rush at the end of the combo. For more annoying boss fight like Voldis g4 or Echidna we should put bloody rush at the start of the combo.

is there a spec cutoff?

[@ahmad445545]

man I love salvation , but as you said , even with 83% crit rate still doesn't crit , plus I feel so slow after switching from hallucination to salvation not to menthing losing stacks at low hp , perhaps with the new engravings system we can run spirit absorption ? not sure if its practical tho , I love experimenting but I see my self going back to hallucination every time.

[@gameghiskhan]

Yeah. The new bosses are punishing for slow classes. The salvation numbers are great but the movement and crit bugs me. The new system we are going to have space bar spamming berserkers all over the place lol. Most of their new engraving aren't really as exciting as some of the other classes. I'm hoping their new awakening skills make up for it.

ENTROPY GANG!

[@mirage2154]

Sup! Hope all is well, any other game you are playing at the moment?

[@gameghiskhan]

Yo man. It's been a minute. My life has finally stabilized. Thanks for asking. How's everything with you. As for other games. No rest for the wicked. It's wicked good. Working on a video for it as well.

[@mirage2154]

@@gameghiskhan that's good to hear bro! I am well, just that I often think it would be better if I get some Khan content lol! Looking forward to some discussion and new things that you are working on!

[@witchinghour4423]

So thoughts on the Berserker. I've seen a million different answers. Would you say it's a pretty good DPS ? For raids etc?

[@gameghiskhan]

Honestly I think he is a solid upper mid tier DPS. The advantage of being a really good mid tier is that he will rarely get nerfed.

[@witchinghour4423]

@@gameghiskhan Thank you so much !

[@lazyguitarAF]

I've been a zerker since release, always MVP 8 out of 10. But If i were to choose a gigachad damage class, I'd go for Destroyer Rage hammer or Slayer Predator.

[@Gi2JZ]

I have 3 builds including entropy which is really strong but some raid bosses are a bit diffcult on back attack / window dps then i switch to another build for sometime

[@gameghiskhan]

I think I might do that as well. There are some gates where entropy just vaporizes health bars. And then there are gates like g1 voldis. Absolute nightmare for entropy.

[@fataliity101]

Question -- instead of Salvation why not run Nightmare set? They both increase your damage by the same amount and it doesn't look like you will go boundless anyway looking at your mana in Akkan. Also, Entropy looks like a no-brainer here. From my own testing i've come to the conclusion that -- Nightmare/Salvation/Entropy basically add the exact same damage. But Entropy also adds 22%ish crit. Meanwhile Hallu hits for 20% less but adds 28% crit. If you run the math, Hallu should be roughly 8% weaker than nightmare/Salvation, and Entropy being the clear winner here. Spec/Swift Entropy = yes. Your getting the best of both worlds -- the damage = salvation and the crit almost equal to hallucination.

[@gameghiskhan]

Running nightmare means you will have to allocate more stats into crit (Zerker non-crit damage isn't that great). Which will make it impossible to hit 1700 minimum spec needed for BT to work. 1700 spec ensures that you can build full meter in one rotation. Going with nightmare build essentially means you will stay outside of the berserk state a lot longer. So while, you are correct that nightmare does more damage, the extended time it takes to re enter berserk nullifies any extra damage output you might get from it. As for entropy. That has more to do with how long his animations are. Most bosses will turn before his animations are complete and so you will miss out on a lot of damage.

[@fataliity101]

@@gameghiskhan Specifically for Nightmare, i was thinking of switching Salvation with Nightmare -- so you'd be running a crit spec build anyway (Salvation doesn't add crit) If you were switching from Hallucination, your only option would then be entropy

[@AymanZaoui]

Nightmare doesnt buff bloody rush damage sir (which is ur highest dps skill on BT)

[@Gaussen]

why not use limit break on od?

[@gameghiskhan]

Too slow for modern raids. And the increased cooldown makes it go out of sync with red dust.

[@krumdark]

Hunamatan would be jealous of BT

[@Alex-tn9vt]

Nice video. I tried myself BT lately after playing mayhem since forever. Was chasing a little bit of dmg but there is no way i beat a breaker or a souleater even slightly overgeared. On reclear content bigger numbers are more fun but theamine is better on mayhem. Looking forward to korea news for 3rd awakening copeing for a little rework but i lost any interest to invest anymore on zerk.

[@gameghiskhan]

Have faith, our new fellow BT gorilla! We are very close to becoming a top tier class! The breakers and soul eater will be hit by The all mighty nerf hammer soon. And we have gotten nothing but buffs for three patches in a row. Our supremacy will not be denied!

[@Abre141]

Nice video XD
