Upgrade Item Details

Depending on the situation the bow can easily be changed with a hammer or a rifle and really it wont make much of a difference in the burst damage.


V. Basic Gameplay

The aim is to hit and use the burst axe skill on berseker mode as much as you can. Signet of Fury and axe 5 attack can lift the adrenaline to max instantly plus there is an adrenaline regain every time you use it it. Bow also is very handy in bersek mode since it allows might stack even if you are not close to your enemy for reasons.


Main Skill Rotation

Since the site doesn't contain the etile specs as option I can't put a rotation, but basically you just use signet of fury or axe 5 to start the fight at max adrenaline and then bersek them with your burst skills as much as possible. You can hit two at least three times with burst skill before berseker mode runs out.
