Berserker’s Technique Berserker Build Guide

Welcome to the Berserker's Technique Build Guide! This build revolves around building up your Fury Meter to unleash Burst Mode (Z), a state where you are heavily buffed and have high Attack and Movement speed unleashing massive numbers.

Outside of that, this build provides great Stagger and Destruction to the team. It can suffer from some slow animations outside of Burst Mode (Z), however once in it, you can expect to be dishing out damage at a rapid pace.

Warning

This build is optimized and meant to be used only in Kurzan Front. For Ebony Cube please use a Raid build.

Berserker's Technique modifies his identity to give it more damage and allow us to reenter Burst Mode (Z) whenever we build up enough Fury Meter.

Activating his identity grants you the following effects for its entire duration:

• 20% Attack and Movement Speed
• 30% Crit Rate
• 36% Damage Increase
• Burst Mode (Z) Cannot be Cancelled
• When Burst Mode (Z) ends, ignore Exhaustion
• Replace Dark Rush with Bloody Rush

Berserker Identity

Bloody Rush essentially becomes our strongest damage skill. It is an incredibly powerful skill during our Burst Mode (Z) and also provides us with some amazing Stagger and Destruction. Additionally Berserk Fury will be significantly stronger due to our Specialization scaling, making it another significant damage contribution to your build and also providing Stagger and Destruction.

This build is rather simple, you will be trying to generate your Fury Meter as much as possible, then once you have a full meter you will unleash Burst Mode (Z) gaining massive buffs and unleashing your real damage. By playing around our primary buff Red Dust combined with the damage increase from Burst Mode (Z)and Berserker's Technique you will be doing insane damage, but only if you can position properly and assure all of your skills land.

Meter Generation Rotation (Fury Meter build-up)

• Brave Slash will be reset once we enter Burst Mode (Z) thanks to Burst Enhancement.
• Try your best to maintain your Synergy using Mountain Crash, even if you aren't planning to attack immediately after.

Burst Rotation (Burst Mode)

• Your goal for this rotation is to buff up using Red Dust then dumping as much damage as possible on the boss.
• You want to cancel your form once you are done sending damage to immediately start regenerating your meter.
• Upon entering form, you gain push immunity for 2.5 seconds, so it is ideal to use Blood Slash or Overdrive first.

Stagger Check Rotation

• Follow this rotation to deal great Stagger. Remember, you can also use a Whirlwind Grenade if you have one equipped!

Gems are another significant aspect of your build, as they directly impact the damage and cooldowns of your skills. You can equip up to 11 gems at a time. Here are the ones you should focus on to maximize this build's potential, listed according to their priority.

Engravings are a core part of your build. You can equip up to five at a time, freely swapping between them.

Recommended Setup

• Grudge
• Ambush Master
• Raid Captain
• Cursed Doll
• Adrenaline

Tripods affect your skills directly by providing utility, damage, cooldown reduction or gauge generation. You should level up these first:

• Wind Blade: Focus
• Tempest Slash: Focus
• Mountain Crash: Focus

Bracelets provide beneficial effects to yourself or to your party members depending on the rolls they have.

The primary goal is to get the main stats used by your build. After that, you should be aiming for Special Rolls to get more damage. Here are the effects you should look out for, in no particular order:

The recommended Elixir Set for this build is Master.
