Tutorial:Berserk Guide

Berserkers are a class in SkyBlock Dungeons. They rely heavily on and  for damage. Whether you are doing Dungeons or Bosses, this tutorial can teach you how to become an efficient berserker.

Most of this tips also apply to Left Click Mage, a sub-class of Mage specializing on using the mage beam as a primary form of dealing damage.

Recommended Weapons
These weapons are required or heavily recommended when playing as a Berserker. These often have requirements such as a high Catacombs level or level. As such, it is not recommended to become a berserker during the early and mid-game.
 * Spirit Sword - A Spirit Sword is an essential Berserker weapon that should be used often due to its high damage, as well as being relatively cheap. It also lets you use it when you are dead.
 * Hyper Cleaver/Super Cleaver - While a Hyper Cleaver isn’t the best for single-target hits, the Hyper Cleaver or Super Cleaver is not a bad pick for attacking a group of mobs. There are many situations win which you will have to attack a large group of mobs, such as during the Thorn boss fight or just generally clearing out rooms.
 * Livid Dagger - A powerful sword that has 100% and 100%, removing the need for optimizing them. This sword also deals double damage when backstabbing enemies and right clicking will throw the sword in front of you, dealing melee damage if it strikes something.
 * Giant Sword - Provides the highest damage buff of any sword in the game in exchange for no . It also has an ability that allows you to deal massive damage in a huge area around you, sort of like an upgraded Golem Sword.
 * Flower of Truth - Grants the highest buff of any weapon in the game and its ability allows you to deal ranged damage, allowing you to stay away from potential danger and clear rooms faster.
 * Valkyrie: The most powerful sword in the game for melee damage and the best sword in the game for the Berserker class, this sword is like a Flower of Truth and Giant Sword in one, granting high amounts of both. However, this sword is very expensive and should only be bought in the endgame.

Recommended Armor Sets
These armor sets either provide lots of or abilities that help you out as a Beserker.
 * Adaptive Armor ​- Adaptive Armor provides you with all-round stats bonus and allows you to increase your damage significantly​, whilst being extremely cheap. Adaptive Armor after being upgraded is actually better than Superior Dragon Armor.
 * Zombie Knight Armor​ - Zombie Knight Armor gives you more defense and health than the armor below, which improves your survivability in the dungeons. The set also gives you a very good amount of strength. This set along with the Adaptive Armor set are probably the best armor sets you can go for a budget berserker setup.
 * Shadow Assassin Armor - With the full set bonus, you're able to gain stacking Strength for the rest of the Dungeon run. Each piece also grants bonuses after using a sword with teleporting ability such as Aspect of the End or Shadow Fury. Currently, this set is considered to be one of the best sets for berserker, although it has low defense because the armor set allows for a really high damage, the enchantment Life Steal helps out a lot and heals the player for a lot of health. In fact, this set is the second best set for the Berserker class, granting marginally less stats than the best Berserker armour in the game, Necron's Armour.
 * Note: the Shadow Assassin chestplate can be replaced with a Zombie Knight chestplate if you cannot afford the full set.


 * Frozen Blaze Armor - Frozen Blaze Armor is a good armor set to pair up with the Blaze Pet​. If you were already using the Frozen Blaze Armor originally, you should be able to have a good time in dungeons. It is also a good idea if you are rich, to 5 star it. (Note: only Dungeon Frozen Blaze Armor is recommended with or above)
 * Necromancer Lord Armor - Necromancer Lord Armor grants the user a decent amount of Effective Health, especially for its relatively low cost compared to other berserker armor sets. Its base stats include no Crit Damage or Strength so it will not boost damage, making it useless in combat.
 * Necron's Armor - Necron's armor is heavily geared towards the Berserker class granting a large amount of Strength and Crit Damage. Wearing it also grants decent survivability. Necron's Armour is the most expensive and most powerful berserker set in the game, making it an endgame armor set, thus not recommended for new players. Its overall stats are only slightly better than Shadow assassin. It is still recommended to purchase the set, as it is arguably the best armour set in the game for damage overall in Dungeons and melee damage outside, if you can afford it. Its full set bonus "Witherborn" spawns a detonating wither to aid you, providing additional damage.

Recommended Pets
Having a good berserker pet can greatly improve your berserker abilities. These are some recommended ones.
 * Wither Skeleton Pet - The Wither Skeleton Pet provides you with some decent damage stats​. The legendary version of this pet is highly recommended as the ability of the pet that lets you deal additional wither damage is very useful to drain monsters in the dungeons.
 * Ender Dragon Pet - It is the most expensive and theoretically most powerful pet for now. It is especially good to pair it up with an Aspect of the Dragon​s. The version will be way better than the  version as the legendary Ender Dragon Pet provides you with a percentage boost in all your stats.
 * Blaze Pet - This pet is really only viable when you pair it up with the Frozen Blaze Armor​. It boosts the armour and also doubles the effect of hot potato books.
 * Tiger Pet - The Tiger Pet is relatively cheaper when compared to the Ender Dragon Pet. ​It gives you good stat bonuses that increases your damage output​. The perks that it gives you are also good for fighting in dungeons.
 * Baby Yeti Pet - While it may provide poor stats, it's Ice Shields ability converts your Strength into Defense. when combined with Flower of Truth, you're able to achieve more than +1k Defense!
 * Griffin Pet - This pet provides overall good stats, and when paired with a Minos Relic can do decent damage.


 * Reforging all your talismans to Forceful/Silky/Strong provides a massive and  boost that greatly improves your abilities. Bloody and Shiny both increase your . Currently, berserkers use the shaded reforge given by the Dark Orb reforge stone for common, uncommon, and rare accessories. Then use Strong reforge on epic, legendary, and mythic accessories.
 * There are plenty of reforge optimizers to ensure you have the perfect balance between and.
