Skills

Usage Strategies

In Bronze and Silver, the Dragon Berserk can go toe-to-toe with most bosses and be used as a boss-slayer due to high life steal and offensive power.

In this form the Dragon Mage's normal combat arts are replaced with special new ones, though he can still use his Divine Gift while in Berserk form.

Combo Recommendations

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely powerful in lower difficulty levels.
  • With the Frenzy modifications, hits sustain the Dragon Berserk form. So long as the Dragon Berserk remains in combat and able to land hits, he can sustain the form indefinitely.
  • The Community Patch significantly improves the offensive and defensive powers of the Dragon Berserk while granting him access to alchemy, making the Dragon Berserk viable even in higher difficulties.

Cons

  • A player cannot open containers, talk to NPCs or use merchants, smiths or runemasters while in this form. He also cannot manage his inventory, CA's or combos.
  • Without the Community Patch, the Dragon Berserk suffers significantly in offensive and defensive capability in Platinum and Niobium.
  • No skills, equipment, or attributes affect the powers of the Dragon Berserk. Only the level of the CA will increase his power.
