What are the advantages and disadvantages?

To get an idea into the game, you have to sell it to everyone else.. Not just say the name and leave it as is...

Put more thought into things before posting.

well
Advantages: it always you to swing Twice in on one stamina there for higher damage.

Disadvantage: takes 40- 60hp each time you use Double swing

So, say it was 40hp.. Do you really think people will use that over berserk? When berserk only takes off 25hp, and is a one click ability..?

Twice at once? As in you get 12 stam, instead of 6? If thats true, then i'd use that over berserk for duels/events where speed doesn't matter as much.

i think he means it's an attack that uses 2 stam.
you have 6 before you hit, and 4 when your done.
probably so you don't have to hit all your stam on zerk.

Hmm, not sure on that. He said 'like the Dual shot to a ranger, lets you hit twice at once' if what you say is true, then it would be the opposite of that, wouldn't it? Let you hit once with 2 stam?

Like dual shot of rangers?....that doesn't let you hit 2 times for 1 stam...

DUAL shot. DOUBLE shot. TWO of them. It doesn't let you hit twice with one stam, true, but in effect it does. Notice how you do twice as much damage with dual shot, as you do with normal attack? I know it doesn't let you hit twice, but effectively you do.

He practicaly means: Give berserkers the dual shot ability, make it do damage to themselves, and rename it. Why don't we just eliminate rangers and turn all rangers into berserkers...Or why don't we give them beam?

Beam would just weaken them.

A dual shot for zerks would have to use 2 stamina, and just shorten the amount of clicks, however would be of the same as attack, where you'd have to click once per attack.

However, fighters need more development than zerks and that ability I originally posted for fighters. Which is the class that needs it.

I geuss it's kind of hard to portray sarcasm on a forum, but I was being sarcastic when I said give 'em beam.

Title: Re: A new Berserker Skill
Post by Eternyte on 02/04/04 at 10:19:22

I did notice the sarcasm, but I mainly post about mages being weak, and beam being their attack spell posted that it would weaken zerks. Obviously you missed that.

Anyway, zerk are not overpower, unless casted with RF and being healed by a cleric. However, so are rangers/fighters and thieves.
