Galroth, you don't have to do positionals/reactionaries to hit for big damage. Really, I play a level 50 Berserker now and this crap you try to pull isn't going to slide. I 1-hit a level 50 Elf Ranger in epic with Doublefrost. Ranger Epic gives 10% crush, thus my damage is neutral to him. Even given SC'd, max resist armor... you can take 16% from my total and I still would have come close to 1-shotting him... he would sure be dead on the next swing with no chance to fight back.

Really, this kind of thing isn't very defensible, and it it happens all the time. This wasn't even a good hit (I don't remember if I was buffed or not... have to go back and look at the original SS at some point).

Aye Cydris, in a 1 on 1 encounter all I have to do is use my shield slam when the beserk goes gerbil and, unless I miss every one of my attacks, I will probably win.


This has always mainly been about the disbalance of the Beserker class within small groups whom support them. I have yet to see a solo Beserker (well, mainly because I rarely run to Odin's to solo, hehe)

Rangers are vulenarable to crush, and in that screenshots it shows the ranger had 0% Crush resist.

Raix, if nothing else, you've only proven you're a moron. Of course, you perhaps could argue semantics... but he does have crush resist (as I explained in my previous post). He has ten percent crush resist from his Epic Armor. Now, effectively, that will read out as zero because of my Hammer's bonus to him. Again, though, substract 16% from the damage and it is still insane. That is an anytime style! My crit could also have been 50 points more than it was... helping to cover most of what would be lost to SC armor resists.


Would you like SS's of me snowsqualling a 50 Mercenary for 160 with BoF on (Alb chain is resistant to crush damage, and high AF)? I mean... how hard do you think I would have hit him if it wasn't up? I think I have an idea...

Here is the BoF pic...

That last pic is about how hard my Blademaster styles paladins for... using a mace (BoF not active).

If that wasnt a frenzy hit, then you would have a point. Don't get me wrong I stated before in this post and previous berserkers post that there damage is insane sometimes... but someone in the realm has to do it. If warriors/thanes could wield polearms or spears while zerkers wore chain and still put out the damage they do now, I would totally agree 100% they are overpowered.


Actually I would love it if they took berserker damage output down, gave us chain armor and gave Warriors or Thanes polearms/spears.


But would'nt that be the same exact thing the other two realms has?

Actually, that would create another cry for nerf on the berserkers part if they were given chain...

Mercenary chain-evade I

Blademaster reinforced-evade II

Berserkers(without chain change)studded-evade III

Berserkers(with change) chain-evade III
