Zero to Gigataco - A Mayhem Berserker Guide

Introduction

Greetings, and welcome to my "Ultimate Guide to forging yourself a slave army to generate mats for the one character that you love", where I will teach you how to crush any content that Smilegate can throw at you with the single most powerful class, Soulfist....that joke probably did more dps that they do.

MAYHEM BERSERKER!

A just name, at that, as no other words can describe a class that can deliver destruction effeciently as this great sword wielding individual. In this guide you will learn how to join the ranks of a select few, who truly admire and administer the power of Mayhem to crush thier foes and make weaker classes "taste the grass".

5 Rules to Remember When Playing GigaTaco

1. ALWAYS use his base Skin to confuse opponents into believing you are a bot.
2. ALWAYS yell "THIS IS SPARTA" before dropping your GODLY bag of man-nuts from the sky. (Optional Macro with Hell blade)
3. ALWAYS Whirlwind when off cooldown.
4. ALWAYS Rapport Ninevah.
5. REMEMBER you are superior to every other class. You are also all of the stagger. Don't depend on anyone. Never use flare/pheremone because you are bringing the DAMAGE Let weaker classes worry about that.

Do not forget these facts and try to build him like lesser classes like striker or glaivier.

NOW TO THE ACTUAL GUIDE:

The Berserker has massive damage with high burst and large AOE skills in Lost Ark. With its efficient skills, the Berserker can clear many enemies with just a few skills. On the downside, the cooldowns of his skills are rather long, and the character is kind of slow.

The Mayhem Berserker is one of the hardest-hitting classes in Lost Ark. In burst mode(a simple toggle action), all damage, attack speed, and movement speed are increased while damage taken is decreased by a significant amount. The low HP may seem like a weakness, but the damage reduction compensates for the weakness. You will only ever have to use GREEN POTIONS TO FULL HEAL.

Skill: Red Dust/Chain Sword

--Red Dust is a great utility skill to use before you use your main damage skills. With a proper Tripod selection, you can increase your Crit by a large margin for your following skills.

Hell Blade/Sword Storm

--Hell Blade deals much of the Berserker's damage. Be sure to use Hell Blade Red Dust/Chain Sword, the damage will be maximized. HUGE STAGGER

Finish Strike

--Finish Strike is one of the main sources of damage for the Berserker. For the first Tripod, you can choose between Tenacity and Enhanced Strike. If you pick Tenacity, it’ll be easier to control while Enhanced Strike can deal more damage. Huge Stagger. Also use after Red Dust/Chain Sword.

Whirlwind

--Whirlwind is a very useful skill that can move around and deal damage at the same time. Great for tower bosses where you need to do damage but keep moving and deals alot of damage in combination with the Bleed rune. Also possibly the greatest clear in solo Chaos dungeons.

Shoulder Charge

--Shoulder Charge is a dash skill that is quite useful in all situations. Small stagger to add to the end of your combo if you do not need movement.

BUILDING GUIDE: **Tier 1 iLvl 302: ** Engravings needed - Mayhem +9

Step 1: Double equip Mayhem +9 to get Level 3 Mayhem.

Step 2: Equip blue gear and cut blue stone. (Avoid Keen Blunt/grudge/etc. that have massive negative effects) A Lvl 1 engraving will do next to nothing since you are already a powerhouse with double equiped Mayhem 9's

Step 3: Equip Card sets. We'll meet again 3 set + 2 set Nature's Elementals(If GIGA CARD DECK go 3 set awakened Forest of Giants)

Step 4: Open 10xhealing potion chest - Select Green pots = 150 full pots. This will late A WHILE.

Step 5: Buy 1 Pancea for floor 40 something.

Step 6: Get to Tier 2

TIER 2 - ilvl 600 **Requirements - Level 3 engraving recipe of either Master's Tenacity or Cursed Doll ** Step 1: Buy cheap iLvl 802 gear and transfer into it for +1

Step 2 : Exhaust resources/use dailies to push to 920. If you cannot make it instantly, just do Chaos etc. until you reach 920.

Step 3: Buy accessories and become GIGATACO.

Accessories Guide: You will need to remove one of the +9 equiped Mayhem engravings.....I know it hurts but you will get it back soon. JUST DO IT ALREADY. This is where the build can vary. They end up being the same damage but you want to go with whichever is cheaper.

The end goal is Three level 3 engravings.

1. Mayhem
2. Disrespect
3. Cursed Doll or Master's Tenacity

You will achieve this by Cutting a 6/5 Epic stone(Stone is not a complete fail if you get +5 disrespect +4 other. See later in guide marked **) You have two choices of stone. Choose the cheaper version.

1. 6-Master's Tenacity/5-Disrecpect
2. 6-Cursed Doll/5-Disrespect

Equip +9 engraving to make Level 3 of whichever stone you purchased(Either master's tenactiy or cursed doll)

-Accessories to Purchase. Crit or swiftness main stat. Shoot for 50/50 but can lean either way if need be. -Every accessory needs +2 Disrespect.(If stone is at base 5. Subtract number needed by however lucky you get on stone.) -Three Accesrroies will need +2 Mayhem.

You will need 3x (Mayhem +2, Disrecpect +2, Crit/Swiftness) Accessories. Leave necklace for last since it is cheaper to get crit/swiftness with just disresect. **If stone failed, on the reamiing 2 accessoires you can add Cursed doll/Master's Tenacticy + Disrecpect, It will just be harder to find them witht he right stats.

Also Pay attention to negative engravings, They are easy to forget and will take away from the gigatacos end dps.

Once you have 3 Level Three engravings.....Well you will see.

Conclusion I have played many games as the mighty Berserker, and yet I still find it one of the most fun and enjoyable classes out there. This build has been tried and tested, and please do so yourself. Please post any results you have! AND I HOPE YOUR BOT ARMY THRIVES.
