Key Concepts

Condition Berserker uses a combination of slow damage and burst coupled with Crowd Control. It has access to short Invulnerable effects towards power Damage and strong Condition Removal.

Condition Berserker can use Block to Reflect Projectiles.

Damage

The main part of Condition Berserker damage comes from burst skills in 狂暴 图标狂暴.

  • 焦土炙箭 图标焦土炙箭 should be used to cover the node as much as possible, while also hitting on cast.
  • 碾颅 图标碾颅 is your main single target burst, instantly proccing 阿奇姆古物 图标阿奇姆古物. It's good to enter 狂暴 图标狂暴 and instantly use 碾颅 图标碾颅 to take advantage of the short burst of Quickness.

Outside of 碾颅 图标碾颅, Mace/Sword has very little damage, rather focusing on Block.

  • 刺穿 图标刺穿 is a projectile which will slowly apply Torment. You can use its counterpart 撕扯 图标撕扯 in melee to grant yourself a burst of Might.
  • 格挡还击 图标格挡还击 is mostly a Block but if blocking a melee hit it will strike back and apply Bleeding.

Longbow is a more agressive weapon, focusing on AoE and node control.

  • Outside of 狂暴 图标狂暴 Longbow burst ability is 燃火射击 图标燃火射击. It's a powerful AoE, applying Burning every second. It has a very large AoE, make sure to fully cover the node with it.
  • Use 钉足箭矢 图标钉足箭矢 to keep your target inside of 燃火射击 图标燃火射击 and use the rest of your abilities on your target while they're Immobilized.
  • 火箭散射 图标火箭散射 is best used in melee range to ensure hitting every projectile and apply maximum Burning.
  • 弧线箭矢 图标弧线箭矢 doesn't apply any condition but can be used inside of 燃火射击 图标燃火射击 for Might.
  • 焚烧箭矢 图标焚烧箭矢 can be spammed throughout the duel to apply Blind.

Defense

Condition Berserker is inherently resistant to all form of damage thanks to the Defense Trait Line.

Entering and exiting 狂暴 图标狂暴 will provide a short Invulnerability to power damage, Stability and some Healing.

Every burst skill has Condition Removal tied to it.

破甲跃击 图标破甲跃击 can be used for map mobility outside of duels. While dueling it will give a quick burst of Adrenaline and Aegis.

Your Stun Breaks are "重整旗鼓!" 图标"重整旗鼓!", also providing Condition Removal, and 痛苦忍耐 图标痛苦忍耐, another power Invulnerability.

Your heal skill, 伤势愈合 图标伤势愈合, has Condition Removal tied to it.
