@Enine Some great information there, thank you! The Decap AA was something that i had been overlooking so that will be my priority on AA's until they it is maxxed. I've been working on getting better Dex gear but trying to gear up 6 toons at once is costly to say the least, lol. My priority has been my tank and my cleric and everyone else just took the leftovers but they are getting decently geared now but still not quite sufficient enough to handle OT or GMM, yet. For the last week or so I've been living in FM just trying to get items to sell (diamonds/blue diamonds) and AA's fighting mainly 103-104 mobs with 108 named from time to time. I'm averaging about ~180 AA's for 8 hours of fighting.
Most anything that is 2 handed is at least a 34 delay so on the "30/32 delay weps", what kind of weapons would those be? Do Zerkers fair better with slashing weapons verses blunt or piercing?
I've been letting MQ2Bezerker handle the discs so far but i'm open to anything that will help improve my DPS for sure.
Thanks!!

Your berzerker wont do any decent dps without dichotomic or Dissedent rage disc , this is the blunt force of the BURST DPS -
also having 12 aa's does not allow the berzerker to have many if ANY DPS disc's alot of berzerker dps comes from class tab , and those 2 spells i listed above and your spammable abilities ,
this is off a open guilds website that i think most people look at -

Auging:
Currently the best Heroic stat to aug for is Heroic Dexterity. There have been many people who have parsed the differences and Dexterity has come out the winner on all of their conditional parses. If you'd like to see for yourself you may have to do a little digging on the Everquest forums to find the results. Another thing to do is get your Spell slot 3's to increase their damage or decrease reuse time. Currently the useful ones are for Demolishing Axe Throw, Demolishing Volley, Axe of Numicia and Vicious Cyclone. Once you have all of the relevant ones start filling empty slots with ATK augs from LDoN's.
Disc Rotation:
Main Burn - Amplified Frenzy, Savage Spirit, Brutal Discipline, Second Spire, Blinding Fury, Untamed Rage, Epic 2.0, Silent Strikes, Furious Rampage (If allowed, Focused Furious Rampage if mezzed adds).
Inbetween - Disconcerting Discipline, Glyph of the Cataclysm
Secondary Burn - Cleaving Acrimony, Reckless Abandon, Shaman Epic, Epic 2.0
Inbetween - Frenzied Resolve, Juggernaut Surge
Tertiary Burn - Avenging Flurry, Vehement Rage, Shaman Epic, Epic 2.0
For the Main Burn you will most likely have Shaman Epic being cast since generally we hit shaman epic when we call full burn, so the in-betweens are teamed with the shorter cool down discs alongside the no longer stacking critical multipliers.
Attentive Stacking - In order to maximize your sustained DPS throughout the fight you're going to want to not use Blinding Fury when Quick Time is up. These 2 abilities are almost the same, Blinding Fury is a little better so if at all possible use this before Quick Time so you can pop it later on in the event. Both abilities are HHE's (Hundred Hands Effect). Quick Time is 14.5% and Blinding Fury is 15%. Blinding Fury has some other benefits to it as well but you never want to waste HHE's especially as a berserker. The Beastlord's Dichotomic Fury and Ruaabri's Fury are also something to watch for, but with the current up time and recast time on Dichotomic Fury it's near impossible to 100% max out your use of Blinding Fury.
General Knowledge:
With the Epic still having a cast time make sure you never click it while actively burning. The only time you should hit epic while attacking is when you either have Res Affects or have nothing running. Otherwise you're losing more DPS than you're gaining during the cast time. Another thing to mention is to wait to hit your spam DPS button till after your burns are going. Don't hit them as you pop burns or you're wasting a lot of DPS potential.
Yeah its dumb
