Tips on fighting Berserkers?

Yah it was one of those big red Bardiches, Berzerkers Bardiche, its a terathen/ophid slayer, my normal vanq and mystic weaps were doing 2-4, but switched to this thing, and was able to do 10-15 with a 20 in there now and then. So if you happen to get one of these bad boys, that is the key now!

Best way to deal with them

Which is actually making me laugh more & more as this drags on since cursed Gauntlet artifacts are near worthless. I imagine half of them are turning up in Lunaland either being peddled without emphasis on the "cursed" part or as "OMWUG PIMP EVENT RARITES".

I've killed them and recieved looting rights already using my normal PvP broadsword and hitting it with Crushing Blow every single hit. Seems to work for some reason or another. Though, to be honest, I'm really ignoring the berserkers anymore.

Damage and looting rights has been fixed on Berserkers. I just sit back and watch Eowyna deal out death to the Berserkers.

Yup I've been getting looting rights now too. I only do 2, sometimes 1, damage per hit with my bow, but it's enough.

Using a pair of earthies to attack a Berserker does 1 to 2 dmg, but takes alot of heals to keep your earthies up. Casting Earthquake was doing 7 to 8 damage.

Well, I took a bush, chiv, archer using Horselord. Just using the bow without any other skills, I got about 8. Using EoO got me 10. Using consecrate wep or Div. Fury added nothing and bush criticals never seemed to come into play. The special moves didn't seem to improve anything either. So, as I have no mystic weps, 10 seems to be it. However it did give me substantial looting rights.

I did the arctic OL on one myself too, we had a power 3 circle, so they werent the strongest, but they did well, but it was hard to keep up with the heals, and ended up using my swdsman with the big red bardiche thing and had no problems from there out, withstanding the 60+ damage hits he did to me. But I was averaging 10-15 damage, and with CW, was doing 20.

Nature's fury did way more damage than what my bows could deal. I fizzle a lot since I have 0 sw, but once I get it up, combined with me hitting, I can handle some berserkers.

Oh, the only problem I have now is them teleporting me when they're under the huts. We can kill them, but then I'd have to use the help stuck option to get out. Or that one time, when I got teleported and died, I couldn't get back to my body to loot it.
