BERSERKER CLASS

The berserker is an offensive juggernaut with better-than-average defensive capabilities, heavy armor, and an axe block that absorbs damage. Their capacity for sheer destruction gives them a place of honor in any party, and they can fend for themselves while soloing.
At level 65, the berserker gains the ability to tank, along with new skills designed specifically for that purpose. While this sacrifices some of their damage potential, being able to switch from DPS to tank at a moment’s notice makes them even more valuable to a party.

Skills Overview

The berserker skill set includes mighty overhand blows, whirling circular attacks, and stunning strikes, as well as shouts that buff the berserker and demoralize enemies. Not only is a berserker’s basic attack useful in any situation, but they have many skill combos to chop down even the biggest boss.
Berserkers can charge up certain skills by holding down the skill button, dealing additional damage with each level of charge. This power comes at a cost, however, because charging a skill for too long causes damage to the berserker as well.
As a tank, the berserker generates aggro automatically in the presence of enemies, and can tie up multiple opponents at once with devastating counterstrikes. However, using the Intimidation skill to tank removes the ability to charge most skills.
