I think there should be more then just 5 races with berserkers like what about the ones with no stregnth at all it would be fun to see something like a dorw be a berserker they wont be able to do anything for abit but hey its still fun. I think weaker races should be able to not only the ones with 22 str+ races its not fun rp aswell make some sort of weaker race have berserker like halfling so instance what do you think. |

I don't think this would work well.
First: new players making gnome berserkers (ouch)
Secound: just wear weak eq for the RP
Third: Well why would a weak race ever think of being a berserkers less it was some wish of thiers, than you could create them as a warior and RP that they think or want to be a berserker.
Not saying you should throw out the idea, just my view. |

I remember someone telling me halfling berserkers were tested and found too strong thanks to the 25 dex and rage madness. Dunno if its true or not. |

Technically you could probably find some fun rp to do for any race/class combo, but thats not really relevant. The race/class combos are limited to things that mostly make sense rp wise. If you are going to argue that, you would have to include all race/class combinations. |

Why would they want to add something in that's useless and you'll find it fun till you've been beaten to a pulp by rank 30 and delete and never try the new races with zerker again. You just put your own idea in the trash can, no offence.
If you want gimped class combo, half-elf ranger. |

I believe you lose dodge when you rage correct? So halfling shouldn't be all too tough. Slith berserker perhaps? Wouldn't it just be so fun to shed while raged, then let your rage auto-attack the helpless fool fighting your skin?

Gnome and halfling berserkers both do horribly. Gnomes already have the worst defensive stats in the game. Even in full damage gear they don't do much. For Halflings they lose their best defense. Neither race gets much boost from rage because the amount of additional HR/DR depends on the strength of the character and the additional HP depends on the constitution of the character. Halflings and gnomes aren't overly strong in either area. |
