Guild Wars 2

Are people ditching their berserker gear in general or is it still a good option?

Stick with it. Give the meta sometime to balance out. It’s likely most classes will still be zerker/assassin for optimal DPS

Yes. At an alarming rate.

Zerker is much stronger now. Since stats went from traits to gear all that extra power went to power primary gear like zerker. Also since you get 4 extra traits you generally get 10-20% more damage which is amplified by using zerker gear.

Overall zerker geared players are doing ~30% more damage now. World bosses sort of just dissolve…

Still not wearing zerker in PvE

Ran Teq earlier and the map finished with almost 12 minutes left on the clock. One spawn only for defensive teams…

Which actually kind of took all the fun out of it for me as a habitual defense team player.
