Just by looking at him, you know the Berserker is someone who likes to get into the thick of battle, pummeling and destroying his enemies into a meaty pulp. It’s in situations such as this where proficiency in hand-to-hand skills can be the difference between life and death, and focusing on Combat Mastery allows for just that. Enabling you to become proficient in the use of weapons and fists alike, the mastery offers both single attack and AOE skills that turn the Berserker into a one-man army.
Heavy Strike can make quick work of single enemies, knocking both teeth and brains out. If instead, you find yourself against a group of enemies, Slam lets you hit the ground hard and generate shockwaves to smash their bones. The key to successfully mastering these skills is to let yourself get face-to-face with your enemies.
Once you start upgrading, other possibilities will open up. An attack like Tornado, which lets you spin so fast you become a blur of muscle and weapon, can be made even more effective by fusing to allow movement while the attack is in use. When you do that, the Berserker goes from being a static whirlwind to a living meat grinder plowing through enemies.
