Berserker  (35/51)

 

 

He appears in the first levels and he’s the hardest challenge for players, who just have started adventure with the game. Berserkers are tough (300 health points) and fast, but they can be effective only in hand-to-hand combat (their punch can easily push back Kane for few meters). They use energetic attacks too, by sticking in the ground skewer, which is placed in their right arm. Very dangerous in small, narrow locations, where is hard to maneuver them.

Due to the fact that many Berserkers appear in the beginning of the game, you’ll mainly use machine gun or shotgun to eliminate them (in the second case, you must hit the target three times, before it dies). Accurate shot in the Berserker’s head will double hit damage.

Personally i just pummel these guys with machine gun led... if your lucky the little annoyances around him will take some fire aswell.... and with what 40 rounds you can kill him take on two little gits and simply hide and reload...

If you notice him from a far, Zoom him with machine gun and blast his head. I find when hes running towards you especially when hes close, it gives him the advantage to dodge attacks easily so be careful when fighting these. Shotgun close range.

Shotgun in earlier lvls, nailgun if you can spare the ammo

Ahem. he's got a spike as his right hand, and the left one is a mace-like thing (just imagine in real-life, when someone hits you with that heavy thing). I find the best to kill them is first use the machinegun and zoom with it, aim for the head, if he's closer, use some grenades to weaken him, but if the idiot is too close, then give him a load of shotgun or hyperblaster. In later levels, U could use the nailgun's seeking mod to kill Berserkers easier.

How comes no one said anything about the ball in his left hand. It has got the electricity around it like the sword but it can be used to jab several times and it takes a lot of damage. I was panicking when this happened and didn't switch to shotgun. Killed him with machine gun eventually but almost died in the process.
