OK I see. Just from the way things were stated I got the impression that this was somehow development that would become official content. I am sure the stuff is very good, but it is still home brew - unofficial, and not useful to me. Gotta say CharOp has sure changed since I was last playing. So the thread title had me thinking this was going to be discourse on the berserker, but it is actually about not-berserker, to use a sort of logical statement in an awkward manner. So when I thought I'd check it out to get ideas on playing a berserker, you can understand why I found discussion about a home-brew shield dancer not particularly useful, and the reasons not tp play a berserker counter-productive.
The stuff about manually adding to the builder also threw me for a loop. Anyway I both suck at XML and am not interested in skirting legalities so I'll leave that well alone.
Caio.

You're correct, this thread has very little to deal with CharOp and if it weren't one of the regulars starting it, we probably would have filled the first 10 posts with "You're posting this in the wrong forum, get out"

Also, Aranador, if you got to see a detailed reason "why not to play the berserker" then this thread really worked for you. Because past heroic you really should never play one for the reasons stated. Yes its odd to use a homebrew class to help fix some of the problems with a "real" class, but by the same token if someone made an assassin homebrew it wouldn't be out of line to start something says "Ok CharOp, you all hate assassins, so what did they do wrong?".
That being said, hopefully I can get back to working on this after I finish reading my book and preparing for games tonight, tomorrow and Saturday.

Oh no, you can still play a Berserker just fine. You simply shouldn't be under any illusion whatsoever that they're a defender rather than being a Barbarian who gets slightly different features to replace Feral Might.
