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

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.

Completely pointless class.

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!
