Specializations

Variants

  • Shield Master improves adrenaline generation and makes your blocks reflect projectiles, which opens up new and creative ways to pressure enemies. You do lose some Weakness Weakness application however which removes a cover condition from the build and decreases your sustain a little.

Equipment Changes

Rune

  • Rune of Tempest - extra healing on all of your stun breaks, decent stats.
  • Rune of Krait - great stats and a proc which adds cover conditions into your main burst rotation.
  • Rune of Balthazar - more focus on bursting targets with Torch and King of Fires.


Sigils

  • Sigil of Exposure over Sigil of Cleansing - better burst and condition variety, lower sustain.
  • Sigil of Cleansing over Sigil of Smoldering - only if you're playing with Exposure on the Mace set, adds back the lose cleansing. Alternatively Sigil of Purging works too if you have Cleansing on Mace.

This build is definitely better with more recent buffs and nerfs to spellbreaker. I think the longbow builds are better though in general because of most meta classes having ranged damage. Its not bad but right now I'd still say its an "okay" If I could give a three and a half, that's where I'd put it

After buffs to berserker this build has gotten stronger. One of the go to warrior builds now. A little weaker than the meta builds at the moment, but could be l2p issue on my part.

It's fun but like any non-meta build/spec gets shut down easily in g2+. Very rewarding if you do have a good team that'll actually give you windows to finish off targets but don't expect to win a 1v1 vs someone who knows what they're doing, and can't sustain enough to bait cooldowns before headbutt especially in this glass cannon meta.

Offers exceptional burst with just enough sustain to make it work. Not great by any means, it's definitely a weaker spec but it's so rare to see a Berserker these days that most people don't even know what their skills do letalone how to fight them. It has the element of surprise and if you manage to land 1 proper burst it's almost guaranteed to get a kill. The higher you go the less likely it is that you're going to be able to land that burst though, and missing skills like Headbutt can indeed be extremely punishing. For the average ranked enjoyer I think it might work just fine, but it's probably not going to be seen in top 100 or ATs.

IMO the best war build at the moment, however I have some suggested changes. Savage instinct over last blaze. Signet of Fury over shattering blow. Endure pain over outrage. Savage instinct and endure pain let you survive bursts and signet of fury means you’re not useless if you miss headbutt.
