How do i become a Berserker class? and when will it be out?

i always loved Berserker class relley want it when will it be playable?

it says in wiki that "This server as of the updating of this guide is set to the first expansion of EverQuest only, Kunark. Velious is planned to be released by 2014 and then no more expansions will be released"

does this mean we wont ever beable to play Berserker class?!?

You guessed it, berserker was released post velious and this server is only going up to velious with some possible custom content afterwards, but even that is years away. Still try the server out, may find you like another class just as much.

You can't tell anyone else this but, this is a little kept secret from the devs. If you donate $100 to the server they'll unlock one locked class for you

You could try to play a Warrior constantly at around 15% health. They are normally in Berserker mode.

That would be funny as hell. You could probably just switch all .opt and .s3d files with the names.

I spent yesterday afternoon playing on Live. I rolled a monk and messed around in the noob tutorial zone. By the time I was done, I had gear that would be considered best in slot on this server from level 10 and under quests.

Then I explored a little, didn't recognize anything, so I thought I'd go someplace familiar, Freeport. I didn't recognize anything there, hopped the boat to OOT, because surely they wouldn't have messed with that zone too much. Didn't recognize that zone either. I don't even know why they call it Everquest anymore.

I never understood the berserker class..basically just a warrior who can't tank but does more damage?

Berserkers are limited to 2handed weapons only.
At low level the get the Frenzy ability which is similar to Rogue backstab and Monk Flying Kick. It's essentially another round of swings with a damage modifier.
They started out with a focus on the ability to "summon" axes given they had axe parts in their bags for throwing purposes... But that sort of died off since throwing blows.

Zerkers are top tier DPS. Cause they started out with almost no utility or tank ability (whereas rogues have SOS among other things). Eventually they have Zerkers snare, stun, blind, fear and such. But those sort of got phased out and watered down due to their ridiculous DPS potential.

They are essentially a Glass Canon, with many of their huge DPS discs requiring they be damaged or have some detrimental effect on them to work (root or blind specifically).

Just make an ogre/troll/barbarian/dwarf and run around with an Executioner Axe - problem solved!

Tried this. couldnt figure it out. If someone does, let me know. Replacing Ogre with DE would be a really cheap guise Lol

No one understood the berserker class, it was completely pointless.

Originally it was basically a rogue with 2 handed weapons. Except, they could tank better, had better race selection, and Frenzy (their version of Backstab) could be used at range and didn't require you to face any particular part of the mob. Plus being able to use two handed weapons is purely an advantage due to riposte and other mechanics.

I believe that rogues were initially better dps because of these advantages, which made the berserker completely pointless. Why play a dps class if you're not the best dps? Then berserkers complained until they started to match rogue dps, then rogues started to complain... and repeat a few dozen times.

Such a dumb idea to add a new class that was 95% the same as an already existing class.

It's too bad that the berserker class never made it in Vanguard. The class was designed to have a rage meter; as your health decreased your rage increased, which had the effect of lowering your defense and raising your offense. This would require the player to maintain a fragile balance between their health and rage. A well-played berserker was intended to be the best dps in the game.

Make a warrior, use 2h weapons, and stay below 40% health.

zerker was just a cool idea for a new dps class...it got tweaked over time and developed (as all classes from original eq did over time) unique abilities and niche roles. largely a dps class. when last i played on live high end zerkers were on par with rogue (i.e. top tier) dps in the game on most raid encounters.

tanking was possible once you got some AA points.

from a role play perspective the game was lacking a top tier dps class that melee'd face to face with the enemy.

Berserker is the only class I haven't played. Always wanted to try one. With AAs and shit they look like they wreck people PvP with crits.

I did a bunch of 85-90 pvp on live a couple years ago, they did kinda stress me out in pvp. I was a ranger and my DPS was definitly better than the ones I came up against, but you would often look at your life and go HOLY SHIT OK IM OUT!

I have a 100 raid geared Rogue on live, and a 97 Berserker with a raid weapon also. Both have their uses. I haven't quite figured out the burn orders yet on zerker to get top dps yet (and likely never will, hi p99 addiction) but the potential is there. Before the nerf to decap, they were definitely desired on raids, as Decapitation affected all the player traps whereas Assassinate did not. Currently all of those aa's (Decap, Anatomy, Headshot) will affect level 99 mobs with full aa, but it will now only proc an average of 2 times per minute.

Ah well, zerker 2.0 ornament on a current raid weapon = Badass DPS and looks cool as shit.
