Good second fighting style for berserker?

Game Discussion PvP
1

I use thermo fist on my berserker and I’m wondering what a good second would be. I currently have boxing but I’m not loving the gloves.

The gloves are the definition of mid imo but the blocking bonus is nice

3

imo i’d stick with it for the block bonus

4

um uhh, idk sailors fist (the direct opposite)

5

boxing for block power

I’ve been running boxing but recently swapped to cannon fist for the bleed. I’d give it a shot if boxing isn’t working out for you.

MY KIN!!! I SHALL BLESS YOU WITH MY KNOWLEDGE :smiling_face_with_tear: :smiling_face_with_tear: :smiling_face_with_tear:

Basic Combat

  • First: Basic Combat is (in my opinion) a incredibly good fighting style with the right gear equipped. Basic has constant pressure and doesn’t require any refilling, charging, and has no downtime. Amazing as a first.

  • Second: It’s alright as a secondary, but only if you’re using something like thermo or sailor since you’ll most likely be using it for extra damage. Pretty good complimentary fighting style.

Boxing

  • First: It’s not worth running this as a first style, even if the speed is great, the damage is so mediocre that it’s not worth putting axe slash on it.

  • Second: Boxing is so deserving of the praise it gets as a secondary fighting style. The speed and passive are so good that some people consider it meta among fighting styles. The resistance focus it has is almost as good as iron leg’s resistance focus I believe. Keep in mind, the first fighting style you pick should be able to handle itself without any help.

Thermo

  • First: Thermo alone is greater than two fighting styles combined. The DOT, speed/speed affinity, and damage are so overwhelmingly good. If the berserker awakening didn’t include a second fighting style, then thermo would be the best.

  • Second: Thermo is genuinely the worst fighting style as a secondary pick, it requires too much attention that the first fighting style you use will barely be used. Thermo is too much of a main style to be used as a sub… unless 1.13 has a different answer for that. :eyes:

Iron Leg

  • First: The center piece of all fighting styles. Need I say more.

  • Second: The best secondary fighting style. Being able to access resistance focus is really good if that’s all you’re looking for out of iron leg. Has synergy with both thermo and sailor. GO CRAZY!!!

Sailor Fist

  • First: You need iron leg. If you’re not using iron leg, why???

  • Secondary: You need iron leg. If you’re not using iron leg, why???

Cannon Fist

  • First: I’m not sure what to say about this fighting style, I’ve never had experience using it as a first nor have I seen someone use it. I don’t think it has any applicable status effects, if it does then it’s probably charred or bleeding depending on which cannon ball you use.

  • Second: Rush, smack them to the ground, spam cannon balls. It’s good for sky campers or anything range related, but it’s not necessary. Shot is good enough already.
