Guild Wars 2

Well, I invested some quality time into tinkering with a warrior I had, to see if I could it to an acceptable state as a berserker. I tried out different armour and countless combinations of trait trees, but always came up with the same stumbling blocks, which were….

1. Too fragile, or having to make major dps tradeoffs for meagre cleanses and healing.
2. Took too long to get into berserk mode and often the fight was effectively over.
3. Too many knockbacks and too much time between swings.
4. On going for conditions, finding traitlines sub optimal or things in wrong trees.

None of the other classes I have had made me struggle in this way. Even druid was something I could slot into my ranger to get noticeable improvements and that was on a dps spec (I got mobility and some control, as well as occasional heals in that case).

I just cant make it work and at best I can make a poor version of my reaper, which very much took the playstyle I used to have on my warrior – ie wade into the battle and do lots of cleaves while being highly durable.

Shrugs – I just don’t have any answers.

Yup, that’s how I am left feeling really. I`m left looking along the trait lines of my reaper trying to work out the thing that’s missing on the berserker and I guess the only one I can put my finger on is the crit boosts. Reaper seems to have been made with traits that make up for the missing parts, whereas on the warrior I am feeling I have to cover all the bases and there just isn’t enough to go around.

It’s like lord of the rings and “too little butter spread over too much bread”.

Is this for PvE or PvP? Because Condi Zerker is pretty insane in PvE
