[3.0] Dark Pact Berserker - Farm All The Content!

U need dark pact lvl 21 and added chaos dmg lvl21 with 20%

This will boost ur dps much, DP only gets more AoE radius from quality so nice to have but not mandatory
Hello and congrats for this very detailed guide which I decided to follow as league starter in 3.0.x

Because I am not really into PoB and monstly prefer to stick with tooltip numbers (adjusted accordingly when needed in case of ele pen etc. and I am quoting this to be pro-active against possible answers as "tooltip is sht" etc.) and to the actual feeling of the build I have the following simple questions regarding transition to dark pact, based on basic numeric assumptions:

-First of all, taking into account boss fights and only Pain Reaver ascendancy effects, one would need actual damage PER CAST more than 6x his life, not taking wither into account.
Wither should lower this number of course. But what is an actual safe multiplier between life and TOOLTIP dps which you guys have actually observed in your toons that proved safe enough to make a transition (first without VP and assuming only Pain Reaver)?

-Second, which ascendancies do you consider absolutely must in order to be able to safely transition to DP?

I levelled this character to be my Shaper killer in Harbinger.

Got impressed by the popularity of the skill because I didn't play the Beta long enough to test it before 3.0 launch.

It seems pretty solid, but the combination of VP and Cloaked in Savagery is really creepy in some nasty maps, especially when you are being hit by multiple mobs.

Well, to the point. I'm level 86 right now, with really good gear and 7.4k HP, but it seems I'm missing a lot of damage in comparison to OP. Using Path of Building to simulate my lvl 90 goal, with only 1 more jewel socket to get, I don't see how I'm gonna hit even 500K Shaper/Guardinas damage...

Here's my gear as of now



I have 4 jewels with cast speed, spell damage and life and I'll get the 5th socket at lvl 90. My gems are not 20 yet, but even in Path of Building, with a perfect scenario, I don't break 400k damage. Only if I equip one Apep's Rage, I'll get to 430k.

Is that enough for Shaper, Chimera and Phoenix? I already killed Mino and Hydra with another character.

Thanks for any input on my gear.

You are missing alot of damage nodes, gems, head enchant, good rings and ammy, spell damage gloves, belt of deciever is another 10% etc..
Hi, ty for this guide and this awesome fun i have.

Lvl 92 for now and i am farming guardians like walking in the park. I am working on 2 more jewels with life and better rings, maybe i will go for lvl94. Then i will try shaper. A friend of mine plays with double curse and some less damage notes and killed shaper.

Hi, i farmed around 60 guardians and i have to say, its pretty easy with this build. Phoenix is the easiest as long as he has no area of effect mods, chimera was just learning the fight and a fast movementskill. Hydra is pretty much walking around and hit her in the face.
Here is my current gear, cant say, if i have less or more damage. I dont use pathofbuilding, was to stupid to change it to 3.0 yet.


Ty again for this guide, sir.

pls cut the shitty Sirusboss out of the game
Thanks for the guide, it has been useful. I used the tree to make a Glacial Cascade build for leveling, replacing chaos nodes with spell damage and cold, and then respecced into Dp at around level 80. I kitted him out immediately on changing skills with a 6 link Carcass, and now I am working on leveling gems and saving currency for my other slots.

It's a lot of fun.
Awasome build! I LOVE IT! <3
Honestly this is still the best DP Berserker build around so far, not sure if OP is going to continue updating it though
so build is 10/10
all guardians down, tonight im gonna kill shaper. easly. jewels and dark pact 21/20 makes huge diffrence

Try using Lightning Golem instead of Flame Golem.

Get Fingerless Silk Gloves with Life.

Swap out either Onslaught or Sulphur Flask with Diamond Flask.

Try using Assassin's Mark instead of Warlord's Mark or Enfeeble.

Since you're also only reserving 35% mana from Blasphemy, try also adding Haste in that extra slot.

Now check your DPS.
