Zuko.7132 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) I’ve been having success with this build. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PKwAIl7lJwwYJsQmJe+X+tLA-zZIPkGlAZKECZF4oBA The adrenaline gain from cc is great for berserker. If you land a tier 1 core burst, you are fully refunded, allowing you to actually use core bursts and still build up Zerk mode. Tons of stability from all of the ccs. Mesmer runes in combo with paralyzation sigil lead to over 3 second aoe daze time with zerk hammer burst during which time you deal 33% more damage due to runes, sigil, and trait. Learn how long your ccs last and don’t overwrite them too early. Best part is I don’t think it’s just a meme build. Seems to actually work well. Good luck brothers.

Ya the tier 1 burst refund works in zerk, so if you land a primal you can go right into another primal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomad.5204 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) Between this and the arms build posted a few weeks ago. It's been fun to hop into the middle of team fights and just break them up entirely. Zerk is always a good time.

Grand Marshal.4098 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Did this in WVW when zerker changes happened. Fun and rewarding. Then the celestial players figured me out. 💁♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyrat.2378 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Is the animation of Rupturing Smash when you have quickness supposed to be so fast? Yesterday I bonked someone for 9k(i think?) followed by hammer 2 crit and dude got insta deleted, but it happened so fast that even I was not sure how that happened. I had a good chuckle out of that tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaps are not supposed to be affected by quickness, but hey, if you hit them for 9k on F1 followed by FB, then I fully expect an instagib attack speed increased or not.

I wish I got those numbers on this build with rupturing smash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was willbender, although perhaps I got it mixed with the hammer 2 and he was running some glass build, which would explain why he got deleted so quickly (i did not check the combat log afterwards unfortunately). Still it hits super hard, although I struggle a bit with sustain. Would marauder amulet be better option for more sustain or is the additional vitality kind of obsolete? edit: https://imgur.com/u26WnWz.png managed to get 7.5k, so I guess the 9k might not be that unrealistic under right conditions (sPvP) Edited January 12, 2023 by Greyrat.2378 edit: added link regarding rupturing smash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War already has a great hp pool, and berserker is all about big numbers. You're going to be squishy either way. Might as well hit harder. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahkeus.8243 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Is there some bug with Mesmer runes I don't know about? Tooltip says they affect daze. The only daze in this build is mace 3. All other hard CCs are stuns/knockdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also the mace primal burst, which you can cast every 5 seconds thanks to merciless hammer giving 7 adrenaline for disabling foes and that skill just costing 10.

Myror.7521 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Tho I prefer gs over mace,Shield. This might be just glassy but heck you could oneshot comb multiple peops in mid this makes this build an absolute Monster in mid fights ^^ Juust gs Version here so you see what i mean: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PKgAEJlJwCZJMMmJe+X+tLA-zZIPlGlAZqA6YEEyQwRDAA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
