Usage

Overall Priorities

High
  • Battle Standard
Moderate
  • Damage


Surviving

  • This build has moderate passive defense
  • This build has moderate mobility skill access
    • Use Whirlwind Attack to move out after spiking
    • Rush can be used for repositioning or gap closing
      • Drop your target if using it defensively
    • Use Warrior's Sprint to remove Immobilize Immobilize by using a movement skill
      • Whirlwind Attack
      • Rush
      • Eviscerate
  • This builds has moderate active defenses

Active defense priority

  • Dodge
  • Whirlwind Attack
  • Balanced Stance


Detailed Explanations

Battle Standard

  • Prioritize Battle Standard on clumps of 2+ downed enemies
    • Battle Standard only finishes enemies in 180 radius, the smallest circle in its targeting reticle
  • Since Battle Standard also rezzes allies in 360 radius, use it on groups of 3+ allies if you have the skill ready


Damage

  • Start fights in Longbow, use Signet of Fury to fill your Adrenaline then activate Berserk
    • Spam Scorched Earth until you get a chance to go into melee, then swap to Greatsword and follow your priorities
  • Use Signet of Fury or Berserker Stance to refill Adrenaline whenever Berserk ends
  • Hundred Blades is situational. You stand still during channel, which means hitting CC'ed, movement impaired and downed foes is the ideal setup for this ability.
    • Making good use of Hundred Blades is critical to maximizing damage, look for any chance to get multiple ticks off
Damage priority
Greatsword
  • Arc Divider
  • Blood Reckoning - while Arc Divider is on cooldown
  • Hundred Blades
  • Rush
  • Bladetrail
  • Autoattacks
  • Whirlwind Attack - save to disengage
Longbow
  • Scorched Earth

Still the top 1 dps, having from big range and melee damage. Very versatile, covers everything a dps wants. All the other dps specialization damage got gutted leaving only versatile specializations to be dominant. Being in the boonball meta makes berserker the least punishable dps in WvW, you wont be able to find any other that will be easier and able to take the spot.
