Red Wolf (Passive): Procs an effect which attacks 2 nearby targets when you deal a critical hit.
Stormclaw (Active): This skill is just free AoE damage that applies itself on our auto attacks. Howl (Active): What an AMAZING debuff! -% Attack, Move, Cast speed and increased damage taken for (ONCE RANKED) a fairly large duration as well as radius. Something of note is that you travel THROUGH mobs when using this skill…meaning you can take yourself out of any bad position very quickly with 2-3 shadow bursts in a row. Shadow burst (Active): Specifically on it’s own, outside the healing effect, it also shatters shields in a huge AoE and is an AMAZING mobility tool. And i just believe points are better elsewhere. Note: I leave blood hunger at 1 point because the scaling per level is terrible (.5% max health) and Shadow burst is a MUCH MORE powerful heal. Much more on shadowburst, but blood hunger is simply there to supplement your health supply constantly…where shadow burst is used as necessary. Blood Hunger (Passive) + Shadow Burst (Shadow burst): Amazing healing. In depth explanations of why I choose each skill and their purposes in the build! AoE is made up for by 2 procs (Red Wolf+Stormclaw) but you can use any weapons you desire. ***Note: When using this build, i HIGHLY recommend using claws for the massive attack speed and their armor piercing capability. Why have I chosen the skills I have chosen? Put the rest of the points into Executioner+Shred Armor, anything spare beyond these goes into Red Wolf+Battle Rage+Coldsteel Mastery.ĥ5+ = Start maxing whatever you wish in whatever order you wish. Level 40-55 = Battle Standard rank 10 and Howl rank 10. The rest go into Executioner/Shred armor still. Level 28-40 = Pick up Ice Shield ASAP, Get Shadow Burst rank 10 (at level 40) Get battle rage 28 and level to rank 5 ASAP. Level 3-28 = Get Shadow Burst, Howl, Stormclaw to rank 5 ASAP! Aside from that, 1 point into Red Wolf, and Rampage and then rank the rest into Executioner + Shred Armor. (Respec the one point out of eviscerate when you first hit town!) Level 2+3 = Take Shadow Burst (Heal) + Blood Hunger (Heal) for survivability purposes. (Beyond that you just take what you want, when you want it) Not my first pick by far, as i don’t like to rely on rampage at all, but still a viable option.īut since realistically, you DO have to level, I’m going to break it down for the first 50 levels or so. This will increase the proc from 4% to 8.5%... not too bad, 1 in 25 mobs for the proc > 1 in 12 mobs for the proc. While we do recharge quickly, the more time we spend in frenzy, the more overall time we spend with 100% critical stikes and other benefits. This will take your frenzy from 6 seconds to 10.5 seconds. This will increase your healing *PER SECOND* from 5% max hp to 9.5% max hp (nearing doubling your active health regeneration) That is a substantial increase in overall AoE output. This will take it from a 2 target 40% damage to a 4 target 67% damage. *OPTIONAL* Take out 14 points from red wolf, and invest into Wolf Shade, for a distraction for mobs and more health flow to you. However, other weapons can work just as well as long as they have relatively fast attacks (Under. Note: This build is tailored towards Claws due to attack speed and not needing a cleaving attack due to skill choice. So, you want to be a badass dual wielding berserker, and you want to play elite? Well prepare to farm, or prepare to die…a lot!Įlite offers a huge challenge to berserkers in act1…the beginning part is hard to survive (1-20, every boss fight is extremely difficult at this level)Īnd I’m here to offer what has worked for me (albeit, this method can be time consuming if executed poorly, but I’m here to help with that.)
