Berseker Tips & How to Use

Go Berserk

With the Berserk ability, you can go all out and just pummel your enemies to the ground. Going Berserk will help in staggering enemies especially when you are up against bulkier and tankier enemies such as bosses. This also reduces the chances that you will be staggered by enemy attacks. Take advantage of combo ability effects like Arcane Axe that refills your break gauge based on your damage output.

Always Hit Hard

The Berserker can choose between a Greatsword and an Axe. Both weapons deal heavy break damage, with the Greatsword slightly getting the upper hand with attack speed but loosing to the Axe in terms of damage output. Berserkers also have the ability to charge any attack within an Attack Combo if you're planning on maximizing DPS especially against hard-to-stagger enemies.
