Berserker Solo PvE Build
Here’s the general strategy for Berserkers Chaos Dungeons, Tower Event, and solo Quests. Focus on grouping up enemies and using AoE abilities.
For this build, the change here is the focus on the skill Whirlwind, you have great mobility with this skill in general and at level 10 it does significantly more damage.
As usual, you’ll want to try out using buffing skills primarily Red Dust for crit rate. Alternatively, Chain Sword (Tripod 1: Vital Point Strike) or Mountain Crash (Tripod 2: Swift Attack Prep) can work too. Then use the heavy hitter damaging skills like Hell Blade and Finish Strike.
Using your Awakening Skill: Chain of Vengeance after Red Dust or Chain Sword, with enough crit, can usually one shot bosses.

Largely the focus with these skills is single target damage. We take Mountain Crash and Chain Sword for those Self Buffs to Crit and attack speed.

Mayhem / Madness
I quickly want to mention that there is a change to the class engraving Madness. We don’t know if that will be coming to the NA/EU release. But the gist of it is that you stay in the Identity Skill Fury, however your health is reduced to 25%. Don’t worry as you will take 65% less damage now. This means that potions are highly effective and economical.
For stats, you no longer need High Specialization to get into Fury mode and make it last longer. Instead, you focus on Crit and Swiftness.
For Skills, there are a number of Tripods that increase damage when your health is below 50%. Such as Hell Blade Tripod 2: Deadly Blow. Finish Strike Tripod 2: Finishing Blow. Sword Storm Tripod 3: Flame Storm.
Additionally, the engraving Champion’s Tenacity, is now quite useful. Lv. 3: Outgoing damage +16% at 50% or lower HP. With no negative effect, it’s a safe choice over Grudge or Cursed Doll.

You’ll want to try to enter Fury mode as quickly as possible, that means using your Awakening Skill: Chain of Vengeance soon, after charging in and then stunning with a Sword Storm. While in Fury mode, you can Shoulder Charge into auto-attack to stagger and finish off enemies.

Berserker PvP Skills Build
Feel free to change whatever skills you like depending on your playstyle and how you see fit.
A quick combo in this build that usually hits:
- Shoulder Charge or Wind Blade >
- Mountain Crash >
- Red Dust >
- Finish Strike
or chase an enemy down and lock them out with:
- Shoulder Charge >
- Tempest Slash >
- Wind Blade >
- Mountain Crash >
- Red Dust >
- Finish Strike
The key to bursting down an enemy is making sure they have already used their “Get Up” spacebar ability.
You can also play around with Level 10 of Shoulder Charge for Tripod 3: Earthquake Effect for an additional stun.
Below is a general Berserker PvP build that is a great foundation to build upon.
