General Notes[edit]

The Berserker's Garb Set is is nice for low level Barbs, but deals very poor damage and overall set bonus. The fact that it uses an axe is a negative too, since they are clearly the weakest of all weapon types for the long run.

• Item level (ilvl): Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item.
• Character level (clvl): The character level you need to be to be able to wear or equip the item.
• Hidden bonuses stack together. For instance, if an item has a bonus for two items and a bonus for three items, and three items are worn, both the bonus for two items and for three items will become active.
• It is possible to gamble Set and Unique items in v1.09+. The odds are roughly 1/1000 for Set items and 1/2000 for Unique items.
• Items with Rarity are expressed as a chance out of 1000. IE 78/1000 would mean that out of every 1000 set items of that base item that drop, 78 of them will be this particular one.
  
  

Weapon Notes[edit]

• Damage Bonus: This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Multiply by the listed value per 100 points in that stat. All bows are 100 Dex, almost all melee weapons are 100 Str, most throwing weapons are 50/50.
• Weapon Speed: A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10. Each 10 is equivalent to an SIAS item. Previously items were listed with WSM modified by IAS on the items, we have revised this to show the Weapons base speed (WSM) before ANY IAS.
• Range: Relevant to melee weapons only. From 1 (least) to 5 (most) in D2X. Numbers are fixed across item classes: a 3 javelin = a 3 sword = a 3 hammer, etc.
  
  

Armor Notes[edit]

• Light Armor: 0% stamina drain and speed penalty.
• Medium Armor: +50% stamina drain and 5% speed penalty.
• Heavy Armor: +100% stamina drain and 10% speed penalty.

Set Bonuses[edit]

Obviously intended to be a Barbarian Set, and wouldn't be bad at low levels. The full set bonus is particularly underwhelming though, probably the worst in the game. However, the attack rating and defense provided by this set are of note; the scaling nature of both makes the set viable for characters lacking in these stats well into Nightmare difficulty. Average characters could expect to receive bonuses of 800 or more Attack Rating, in some cases radically improving hit ratios. Add to that its rather large defense(comparing with and beating out many exceptional armors), and it becomes slightly more useful than it at first appears.

Diablo II[edit]

These are the stats for the set in Diablo II, where there are no partial set bonuses or hidden item bonuses.

Item	Item Name	Attributes	Commentary
	Berserker's Hatchet Double Axe	5-12 Damage 48 Durability 43 Required Strength Axe Class: Normal attack speed Swing Speed: P - Fast Am/B/N/S - Normal Clvl 3 Required 30% bonus to attack Rating 5% mana stolen per hit	Decent stats for a low level character, but very lacking damage.
	Berserker's Hauberk Splint Mail	90-95 Defense 60 Durability 51 Str Required Clvl 3 Required +1 to Barbarian Skills Magic damage reduced by 2	Not bad for a low lvl Barb, decent defense and bonuses.
File:Berserkers-headgear.gif	Berserker's Headgear Helm	Helm 30-33 Defense 48 Durability 26 Str Required Clvl 3 Required +25% Fire Resistance +15 Defense	Good for the fire resistance, but again, only for a lower level character.
