Overview
A condition DPS Berserker raid build focussed mainly on 
燃烧 and 
流血. The rotation is fast-paced and rewards constantly attacking, weapon swapping and triggering of burst skills. Despite this and the Berserker's theming, the damage is among the slowest-ramping in the game, heavily favouring long phases.
This build can pack a good amount of CC and mobility, and its combination of high health, heavy armour and 
鲜血清算 make it very survivable. In addition, 
焦土炙箭 is a great cleave skill that can hit distant targets without losing DPS on the boss.
Its damage is heavily dependent on remaining inside 
狂暴 by frequently using Rage skills. As such, it is somewhat reliant on having good 
敏捷 uptime.
Skill Bar
Weapon Variants
- Offhand Sword is only a small DPS loss, so you could play this if you prefer.
Skill Variants
破甲跃击 is higher DPS than 
蛮力打击, but the latter can be a potential CC and you may find the movement of 破甲跃击 awkward if you're unused to it - to minimise movement, you can mouse over your UI and you will jump on the spot.

[&DQIkJTMdEibyEvIS3BKpAKES1xLXEq8AwhLuAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADIwBaAGYAAA==]Specializations
剑术大师 is higher damage if using offhand Sword. You should also adjust your gear to make up for the 120 expertise difference (see below).- All the grandmaster traits in Discipline are very low-value for condi berserker.
斧系专精 offers the highest damage, but you could take 
爆发专精 if you want extra 
迅捷 uptime. 
凝聚专注 could also be useful if you don't trust your 
急速 uptime, though it doesn't offer any damage.
Equipment
- If you don't have Infusions, it is slightly more optimal to only run a single Sinister stats Sinister stats piece.
- If running 剑术大师 you will need less expertise, so in this case run Sinister stats Sinister stats accessories, shoulders, gloves and feet.
- It it also optimal to run full Malign infusions in this case.
Non-SotO Relics
There are no obvious damage relics for players that don't own Secrets of the Obscure. 
蛇妖古物 is likely to be the best of them, but the damage gain would be low enough that you might prefer to go for a utility option instead.

Utility
Usage
Although the basic structure of the rotation is simple, in practise you have multiple skills that will come off cooldown at different times from loop to loop. See General Tips for an explanation of how to use these skills in the rotation.

Basic Sword Section
Compared to longbow, the order of skills on Sword doesn't matter too much as you will use each of them just once, thus you can prioritise Rage utility skills if they are available. However, 
野蛮跳跃 will provide a fire aura if you're stood in a fire field, which is very likely as you should have just used 焦土炙箭. If you already have a fire field from 
火焰之王, you should ideally detonate it with a Rage utility skill before using 野蛮跳跃.

Breakbar
- Your most easily accessible strong CC is 头槌重击.
- 蛮力打击 is used in the rotation, so you will need to balance the need for CC against the risk of dropping out of Berserk if you delay the extension.
General Tips
- Use 裂岩怒击, 蛮力打击 and 怒气涌流 off cooldown.
- You may need to use 头槌重击 occasionally to prevent yourself dropping out of Berserk - combo with 怒气涌流.
- The most efficient time for this is when you would otherwise be autoattacking on longbow.
- You can also use it for extra damage if 火焰之王 triggers and you have no other Berserker skill to detonate the aura with.
- As you delay 鲜血清算 until after a 焦土炙箭, the cooldown practically lines up with 钉足箭矢 and it's ideal to use it in a fire field for the combo finisher. If they become desynced however, just use 钉足箭矢 off cooldown.
- Although this combo extends the time you spend on Longbow you still want to only use 火箭散射 twice.
- Although this combo extends the time you spend on Longbow you still want to only use
- If timed such that you block an attack,
格挡还击 is both a strong defensive and offensive tool. - Use 战争烈焰 off cooldown (if using).
- You should be aiming to swap off from Sword almost as soon as your weapon swap is available.
- You can provide extra might for your group by aiming 弧线箭矢 inside your 焦土炙箭 or another fire field.
- Some bosses have attacks that are harmful to the group if they're reflected (Primarily Matthias Gabrel and Cairn the Indomitable), make sure to familiarize yourself with these and avoid reflecting them with 裂岩怒击.
