Really nice guide, just to add a quick micro-optimization to the rotation opener: you can do Headbutt -> Berserk -> Outrage -> etc. instead, so that you can get the extra Berserk duration from Outrage (you can go into Berserk while stunned from Headbutt)
@NikeonaBike Жыл бұрын
Exactly. We over cap by so much now that I didn't think its important but for some fights with lots of invuln phases where overcapping as much as possible is needed, this is a good tip

@shadycat8898 Жыл бұрын
Really notable to say it's a power build that has two good movement skills totally free outside the rotation. Makes it a very mobile build for fights on top of your opener starting with a gap closer.

Love the berserk extension on burst playing with 250ms ping. Also love the quickness just being a trait, so I can just play berserker and fill an extra role if needed. I wonder a few things though. Why fury signet? I feel some assassins pieces to hit crit cap is better as it frees up utility. I just bring wild blow, kick, might signet. Tons of CC and also a physical skill to proc the 10% damage increase from peak performance. I don't think outrage is needed if you have wild blow.

My only concern is Anet nerfing the crap out of both builds because they don't want a boon dps pulling near pure dps levels of damage. Power Zerker has always been a fav build of mine to play, and it's nice seeing it get some love for once, so hopefully my concern doesn't come to pass.

Hey man, thanks for the guide. Just coming back to gw2 after almost 10 years of break. Will this build be viable with current meta for running T4 fractals with potential for doing CMs, would you suggest any changes or if I want to focus primarily on fractal runs I should consider something more viable.

Bladesworn is best at high ping. Nike is not super correct about how game works, Ping is only important in DPS rotation as indicator and feedback information, with better ping you have lest chances to cancel you AA or ability, but if you are Macro user - you can just use fixed delay to reduce amount of cancellation. But even benchmark numbers have some cancels, it's with best possible setups.

You'll never hit bench. But honesty, it doesn't really matter unless your looking to speed clear instanced content. You can hit 30k bench which is more than enough for normal play. If you like berserker, play berserker. Just don't troll your group.
@NikeonaBike Жыл бұрын
what i would recommend is trying axe/empty + empty/axe setup. A lot of the DPS loss comes when you swap to GS and back with high ping. Playing as pure axe will eliminate a lot of places where ping hurts you.

This is for raids and strikes and fractals so you rely on your supports to give aegis or stability. But you do also have Outrage on your bar which is a stun break.

@NikeonaBike Жыл бұрын
You can get away with just using Outrage on cool down and keeping up berserk if you want to save headbutt. You'll replace the headbutt with Axe 2 or an auto attack depending if Axe 2 is available.

So why doesnt berserker need assasins pieces anymore? Is it because we use precision signet instead of wild blow? Is the old berserker build provide similar dps or noticeably worse? I do prefer keeping wild blow in the rotation for the cc since the build otherwise has some pretty bad cc or atleast has the same issue as bladesworn as far as cc
@NikeonaBike Жыл бұрын
fury signet covers the precision. One thing to keep in mind if you can maintain berserk uptime without headbutt, so in high CC encounters you can just save headbutt. Also, in high CC encounters maybe just use spellbreaker.
