Hi, just want to share my pre-league practice with this old but gold berserker build.

POB: https://pobb.in/9pUZgVX7SGN-

Eater down at 11:14:15 with total 11 deaths

Exarch down at 11:28:51 with total 11 deaths

11.5hr is not a very fast run but it is sufficient for a casual player. The total progress includes 4.5hr (campaign) + 2hr (heist) + 5hr (map).

Pros:

  1. SSF friendly berserker build
  2. Good defence as a berserker
  3. Really nice dmg in SSF environment
  4. Smooth playstyle as a melee build, dealing dmg while moving

Cons:

  1. Not the best mapper, but mapping is OKish imo
  2. Need warming up (take some time to full rage)
  3. Melee build

Offence:

  1. All berserker nodes serve for dmg
  2. Perfect combination of exert attack and insane attack speed provided by berserker

Defence:

  1. Determination/Grace + Dread banner + blind (Sand stance Bladestorm) for smooth mapping
  2. INSTANT LEECH with insane hit rate
  3. Lucky spell suppression

Passives & skill link:

Campaign (1-70)

Rage Vortex - Pulverise - Close combat - Melee Phys
Bladestorm - Rage - Maim - Lifetap
Determination / Purity of Elements / Blood and Sand / War Banner
Poacher's Mark - Mark on Hit - Lifetap - Leapslam
Intimadating Cry / Ancestral Protector / Frost blink

Lv. 88. Green nodes (melee crit cluster) indicate next passives I'm going to allocate.

Rage Vortex - Pulverise - Close combat - Melee Phys - Brutality
Bladestorm - Rage - Maim - Power Charge on Crit
Determination / Grace / Blood and Sand / Dread Banner
Assasin's mark - Mark on Hit - Lifetap - Leapslam
Intimadating cry / Ancestral Protector / Frost blink
Precision - Arrogance

Playstyle

  1. Use warcry after entering map to gain rage
  2. Keep moving while spamming Bladestorm to accumalte rage
  3. Exert Rage Vortex by warcry with ancestor totem placed in advance for bossing

Some notes

Rage Vortex dmg is multiplied by 3 due to the double dmg by Intimidating Cry and 50% more exert attack dmg by warbringer node.

Pls feels free to ask any question!
