And it would remotely make a difference. Power damage is way too low to make a dent.

[Crab Fear.1624]

Yes they will

[Multicolorhipster.9751]

yes and no

You go bunker and/or condi damage if you want to be effective in this patch.

If you want to do as close to as much power damage as you were doing before with 4 stat ammys then yes, you will run zerker ammy but you will just be super squishy in a meta where nothing ever dies which might make you a big target.

I use Berserker all the time on Power Revenant, always have. No reason to have anything else with Jalis tankiness or Glint Infuse Light + Protection.

Condition is ineffective again Necromancers though, power pressure does it better. The only thing that never dies here currently are FB's and their freedom to freecast.

[Sanity Obscure.6054]

No, because power got nerfed to hell.

It's condi or bunker amulets.

from little I played necro, running around with 20k hp, constant heals and extra HP shroud. on top of 3,5k toughtness and ALOT of protection, means I dont care much for power damage.

I use on soulbeast, I feel. Like surviving longer than with marauder before and deal pretty much the same dps

Not true at all. While it is undeniable that "bunker" and/or condition damage orientated builds seem to perform very good after the patch, power is far from dead right now. I am pretty sure power builds which tend to do well as roamers and are not nerfed beyond viability will benefit from Berserker Stats (various d/p Thief builds for example) - not new tho, power Thieves with Berserker Amulet already have been a thing during (before?) HoT even on competitive level before. Ranger/Soulbeast seems to do well with it too.

Hey, I use power too. But even with strong condi cleanses, I argue that the amount of damage you'll take from condi builds (as of the time I write this anyway) is much higher.

[Skorpis.4372]

I used berserk most of my time and I think I gona stick with it even now.

[Downstate.4697]

Classes that can get away with it are prob necro ranger rev or warrior. Will feel like a demolisher amulet lol

Hey if you want to try Zerks, I say go for it. I definitely respect it.

Maybe you can take top kills from me with my whole 1 kill.
