Berserker Spec

[Chronictank]

I was pondering with the idea of going:
50 La
49 Axe
29 Hammer
9 Parry

29 Hammer being for Conquer (the rear positional snare).
So opening with 2H Conquer but switching to Axe/LA for the dmg.

Anyone tried it before?, what you think?

I'm RR5 and my template has
capped qui
+6 All melee
+11 LA

Main Hand/Offhand: Malice/Croc Tooth (or Malice/Energy LGM depending on enemy)
2h: Battler

better of sprinting and using dmstyles at start imo and hope for prevent flight to proc

 

[Twinky]

wouldnt waste those pts in hammer if u want to use axe.. the snare aint woth the low dmg u will make.. as stated above.. better hope the prevent flight proccs while bashing them down with back styles chain from left axe.. imo

 

[Chronictank]

atm i usually use plunderer/pillager if they are particularly good at kiting otherwise sprint+back chain.
ty for input

50 hammer 50 la rest parry here chronic.. luv it tbh..

 

[[VR]Fuji]

make a template so u can splitspec instead its very nice to be able to use 2 different dmg-types

 

[[VR]Fuji]

i know u have a katorii shadow pin so it should be of roxxor

Axe dmg and styles in general (bar conquer) are better than Hammer so im hesitant to switch

I wouldnt split spec until at least rr7, main reason being you do lose dmg i tried 39/39/50 a while back and didnt like it. Wyrd's calculations don't take into account weaponskill so don't give an accurate depiction of rvr (his berserker doesnt even have his spec, shows how much confidence he has in it really ).

I'm kinda broke atm due to toa'ing my hunter, so will need to farm a descent ammount of money before switching again

you lose weaponskill which relates to how many times you hit something, which relates to dmg etc etc etc
at least thats the way i understand it

in a toe to toe duel with someone with approximately the same template, only difference being me with 50+4 and him with 50+14 using la styles i lost every time

(bb each healing on top of Bled when we had agramon heart)

 

[Faril]

the wyrd spec isnt 100% right afaik

The weaponskill you get from speccing over 51 composite doesn't affect your damage or change to get through someone's defence.
Apparently the displayed WS isn't correct.
I've seen a few other people's tests that confirm it.

This is the latest test i've seen:
