FOR HONOR: Berserker Guide


The Berserker is the Viking faction's Assassin. It's classified as a Hard to learn character, and is primarily used for CQC. The Berserker shines as a close combat harasser using Infinite Chains and numerous Chain Staters

BASIC TIPS

-When Locked, match the enemy’s Guard position to block their attack.
-The Berserker’s defense/block is only up for a short time, so timing is key.
-The Berserker’s first combo chain is called Dance of the Paired Blades. Perform a light attacked followed by a heavy attacked, or vice versa.
Remember: you can’t start or continue a chain after performing a Top Heavy Attack.
-The Berserker’s second combo is Bear Mauler, performed by chaining three Heavy Attacks in succession.
-When surrounded by enemies, perform a Zone Attack by pressing the Light Attack and Heavy Attack buttons simultaneously.
-While Sprinting, perform a Hunter’s Rush by pressing Heavy Attack.
-When locked onto an enemy, Dodge and press Light Attack to perform a Spin Chop.
-When locked onto an enemy, Dodge toward them and press Heavy Attack to perform a Head Crusher. Use this to approach enemies quickly and attack.
-Move backward while pressing Light and Heavy Attack to escape and inflict Damage at the same time.

ADVANCED TIPS

-When locked onto an enemy, Dodge in the direction of an incoming attack just before impact to deflect the attack.
-After deflecting an attack, Guard Break your enemy to Knock them down.
-The Berserker’s Forward Throw deals Stamina Damage to your enemy.
-After four or more attacks in a Chain, further attacks become uninterruptible and cost less Stamina.
-Use Feint (cancelling an attack after the animation starts) to avoid a Block and start a new Chain in a different Guard.
-The Berserker can also cancel basic Attacks with Dodges, allowing you to harass an open opponent with additional moves.
-To stay in close combat when missing an attack, cancel the recovery into a Zone Attack or a Dodge.
-Spin Chop (dodging left or right and pressing Light Attack) can start Chains. Follow up a Spin Chop with a Heavy Attack to begin a chain.
-Slashing Rush (dodging toward an enemy and pressing Heavy Attack) can also start Chains. Follow up a Slashing Rush with a Light Attack to begin a chain.
-Your Infinite Chain can be followed up by the Bear Mauler Chain (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack.)
-Avoid delays when blocking Light Attacks by riposting with Light Attacks. This allows The Berserker to block or initiate chains with a fast attack, by IGN.

The Elder Scrolls Online: Nails the Magic and Weirdness of Morrowind

Poor Eoki just can't catch a break. I first saw the hapless Argonian huddling in a corner of a dirty island hut where we'd been stashed as newly captured slaves, and he followed me when I leapt into the surrounding waters in a daring escape alongside an assassin. And now, here in Sadrith Mora, hugging the eastern rim of the island of Vvardenfell, I find him in chains again. Four times he tried to escape after our escapade, and four times slavers drug him back. Now he's stuck toiling for Telvanni mages who bought him for a discount and don't give a damn for the Ebonheart Pact's ban on slavery. I offer to free him myself, but he says he's going to be all right. He knows someone, you see—a fellow Argonian slave named Sun-in-Shadow who happens to be pretty handy with magic herself. It's more than mere trust: he's smitten with her. And now Eoki's pleading with me to go help Sun-in-Shadow with whatever she needs to rise through the Telvanni ranks an...

Battlefield 5: Early Review Impressions

The Battlefield series has always been about capturing the scale of war, and Battlefield V delivers as expected. Large maps made of both open fields and narrow lanes pit players in chaotic fights to capture objectives and deplete the enemy respawn count. Different classes empower soldiers with specific capabilities that provide distinct advantages in the right situations. And of course, tanks and aircraft not only change gameplay dynamics, but can swing the tide of battle in deft hands. The initial impression is that Battlefield V revels in familiarity--this entry doesn't stray away from the franchise formula, but it's a fine execution thus far. It's been a while since the franchise set foot in World War II, but this time, it does so with lesser-known conflicts at the forefront. It's oddly refreshing to discover aspects of history that go overlooked. While we've had a steady diet of the snow-covered Narvik map prior to release, the game's collection of land...
