Skills

These are mayhem berserker best in slot skill for the raid build.
- Mountain Crash is a Counter Attack that helps generate gauge for Burst Mode. Use Swift Attack Prep to speed up your skills.
- Red Dust is an important skill that amplifies damage done to a target. Hitting Red Dust will grant 24% Attack Power for 6 seconds. Damage Amplification provides a 6% party buff when hitting the skill. With Dominion Fang Chestpiece cooldown reduction and at least 250 Swiftness and lv6 cooldown gem will allow you to almost permanently keep the debuff up with just 1-2 seconds downtime.
- Hell Blade is usually used as a gap closer with it's leap to reposition yourself after dodging mechanics. It is one of your highest damage skills with high Stagger.
- Wind Blade is the 2nd highest Fury Meter gain skill apart from Chain of Vengeance. Like many Berserker skills, it has decent Stagger.
- Strike Wave damage varies depending on the hitbox for bosses. The skill deals damage in 4 successive strikes in a line extending outwards. Some bosses require certain positioning to get all 4 hits in. Other bosses, no matter what you do, can only be hit 3 times.
- Finish strike offers high damage and high Stagger. The first row skill tree, tenacity, offers push immunity, allowing you to ignore certain soft crowd control patterns.
- Chain of Vengeance is used over Berserk Fury due to its high Fury Meter gain. If you intend to use Berserk Fury, you would only use it during Burst Mode for the increased damage.
- Tempest slash is a decent damage and stagger skill.
- Bloody Rush is your Z skill when you are in Burst Mode. Its damage is extremely high, so you consistently use it off cooldown.
Runes
Runes enhance skills by providing bonuses such as Attack Speed or Cooldown Reduction. Runes have limited availability and you cannot acquire them from the same source twice. For some runes there are 2 sources and as such, you can acquire two of the same rune rarity. Therefore, it's important to place your Runes on skills wisely. Below are the recommended rune placements for Berserker's Technique Berserker.
- Bleed works best on skills with low cooldown. For berserkers though, we are putting it on red dust.
- Galewind should be applied on almost all your damage skills when we get enough rarities of them in the future. Most of berserker's skills have a long cast time.
- Wealth should be applied on your highest Fury Meter gain skills like Wind Blade.
- Quick recharge helps you with a chance of reducing the overall cooldown of skills.
- Purify can be slotted on any skill just for the chance of removing a debuff.
- Overwhelm is used to increase Stagger damage of the skills, but it is an alternative rune if the player doesn't have anything else to equip on the skills.
- Rage will help speed up the DPS rotation when it procs for it's attack speed bonus.

Tripods

Skill tripods is the biggest damage boost to your skill, so you should prioritoze getting them first. Focus on finish strike, strike wave, and hell blade, these 3 are the main damaging ability.
- For finish strike there is an optinal tripod called tenacity, which offers Push Immunity, allowing you to ignore certain soft crowd control patterns.
- For tempesh slash you can go driving hit or storm slash, either is fine. Driving hit does less damage but have faster animation, while storm slash does more damage but have longer animation.
- Tempest Slash first skill tree node can be switched to Quick Prep, If you are using a build variant that has Maelstrom for extra Fury Meter gain.
Skill Rotations

- Gameplay
- Tip: you can use bloody rush for push immunity.
- Dominion Fang engraving set up
- Poem of Salvation engraving set up
- You can replace mass increase for cursed doll if you don't like the -10% attack speed.
- Budget damage/crit rate card set
- Best in slot card set
- Berserker technique can run 2 different set of relic armor, one is dominion fang set and poem of salvation set.
- Dominion fang set give you a dmg buff, cooldown reduction and meter generation buff, but you need to run awakening 3 to maintain the buff since it only last for 1 minute.
- Poem of salvation set on the other hand give you 10% attack speed buff and awakening skill damage buff but you will need to stay above 30% hp to keep the buff.
- pros and cons
- Poem of salvation provide more burst with higher skill cooldown/low meter gain. Dominion fang is consistent dps with higher meter gain and lower skill cooldown.
- Above is the ideal stat for a berserker technique. You want at least 1200 in specialization but no more than 1500 which is roughly (+70-80% fury gain, +215-230% burst duration, bloody rush damage +205-220% and awakening skill damage +65-70% from stat alone) this combine with crit from red dust and chainsword will allow you to fully utilize keen blunt weapon. You also want 300-500 in crit/swiftness for you to fully utilize raid captain engraving and more crit rate.
