Fun with Berserk

[stoxastic]

Berserk is already really good. If you take away the pacification effect and make it weaker it pretty much just becomes fight or flight. You'll just need to time your berserks in such a way that 1) You don't get pacified at a really bad time and 2) your pacification comes right after a skill so you really only miss out on 1 attack rather than 2.

Like already mentioned, work with your healers to get that leeched off. It's so nice to have that debuff taken off so you can continue hacking things.

This pretty much sums it up. I just started playing WAR again after abandoning it when I bought my PS4 (too lazy to redo the crossbar setups). I haven't created a macro to let my healer know to esuna me, so I just make sure to time it so that pacification won't come at a bad time.

if you want some ideas, you can look at my war controller setup: http://youtu.be/kfNxoyPNSdo
it's slightly out of date, I've moved vengeance and internal release

I'm new to MMO, New to FF14, and new to tanking. Your controller setup video was very helpful.

good
just dont forget to bring the meat
tanking as war is all about dealing damage and self healing off of it
also, once you hit level 45 go back to george, get your artifact gear, its good and is one of the best looking sets in the game

I Just hit 45 last night and went to see george. Now I'm rocking some of that sweet, sweet warrior gear lol. I'm also going to stock pile some meat. Thanks for the tip.
