Skills

Odin's Charge

The Berserkers charge with their axes. During their charge, damage taken from units is reduced, and Berserkers get 4 stacks of Rage.

Berserker Assault

The Berserkers swing their axes quickly, immediately getting 4 stacks of Battle Madness. Also consumes a small amount of Rage to inflict an area attack on nearby enemies.

Frenzy

Using this skill restores 4500 health to each warrior in the unit. When Frenzied, the unit inflicts 50% more damage, takes 43% more damage, and is immune to crowd control debuffs, but cannot be given orders. This effect lasts for 5 seconds.

Formations

Dispersed

The unit stands in a loose formation to lessen the impact of enemy ranged attacks.

Line

The unit forms two lines, ideal for launching attacks.

Guide

Counters

  • Loses to: Big burst units
  • Struggles vs: Debuff & Burst units
  • This unit counters: No “counter” but the unit is just a great flank unit that provide lots of DPS in a fight

Playstyle

  1. Won’t do well face to face, flanking unit
  2. If really free DPS: insta-rage will give you the best DPS BUT the real combo is:
  3. Press 2 (Battle Madness) before engaging, instantly press 1 after to cancel it, press 2 when reaching target and then spam press 3 (Rage) so you rage with max DMG recution passive, after that keep pressing 2 once and then 3 while you keep fighting

Berserkers have a 3.08s cooldown on skill 2 (Berserker Assault), but with their 20% CD reduction doctrine it drops to 2s.

Doctrines

Highest level you can.

Mandatory

  • Epic Combat Doctrine (3/6/9)
  • Linebreaker Doctrine V
  • Berserk Unique Doctrine for cooldown reduction

Top Pick

  • Unit Damage Doctrine V
  • -5% dmg taken
  • +All Def & +HP

Filler

  • Slashing DMG
  • Piercing Defence Doctrine

  • Mouvement Speed Doctrines

Tips & Tricks

  • Keep the defence passive (Battle Madness) up by playing them with 2 into charge into 1 into 2 into 3, repeat the 2-3 pattern after that. You can do a « fast combo » where you 2 in void before engaging, then 2-1-2-3 so you use Frenzy at max stacks.
