I've never found a way to stop this, but neither has it ever seemed a problem to me. Typically Ravage is the first thing you'd want to do upon stopping, and if there are no enemies near, then it doesn't matter anyway.

Hi ADEC !
Thank you for your answer.

I used to really running all the time with the Savage Rush, suddenly, as soon as I miss an object or a destructible and I get out of the "wolf" mode to enter in interaction with it (via the left click) : it does Ravage automatically.

In fact, to be frank, it cuts my rythm of play and it is sometimes risky to stay near a trapped chest :p (I play Hardcore).
Aside from putting the "Basic Attack" every time I enter Savage Rush on my Left Click, I didn't find anything else as well too :(

I am happy to see that I am not the only one to have encountered this problem !
I wish you will forgive my medium (low) level in English !
And I wish you to have fun.

#prayforafix ^^ (if it's a bug)

up : ='(
Well... Killed my zerk Hardcore cuz of this bug, x2 strange explodes on normal (LOL)... Stuck because of the attack. I dunno what mobs had eats, but I think the salt is hard in TL2 sometimes ! Damned... So unlucky about this little thing... No time to adapt with functions switching Basic Attack and Ravage.

Gonna try Outlander, this bug really make me mad sometimes, until the end.
GL HF dear Berserkers !

FYI, Shadow Burst can be used as a primary skill all the way to level 100, and I've never encountered any glitching with it.

I usually play Berserker when I feel like just punching a lot of stuff. I use Shadow Burst for my crowd control skill and, of course, to regain health. Sometimes it's my only active skill, and the rest are all passive.

I will wait to have more than 30% elem damage in less for replay zerk (because I had that and he dies, 77 in Normal diff' into the Sphinx Dungeon, the mecha' things (Hardcore NG+1) and something like... Near 1k armor (+ one active Ravage at his last moment, so 1300~).
So farming stuff yep. I agree if I plan to replay seriously Zerk in HC.

I was planning a lvl 100 like this :

http://tidbi.ru/eng/berserker.php?lvl=100&fm=33&skill=0000F0F10F0000A00F0F00010000FF&stat=apapafafaaaaaaaa

Lot of passive too, x2 Buffs, x1 Escape, x1 Active.

So if I understand well :
I should put Shadow Burst (for escape/running/CC (+ Reg in bonus)) more than the Savage Rush ? (Or just full Shadow Burst without Ravage and use it as an Active+Escape too ?).

Yeah why not if I get what you said well, (but Ravage is really stylish, like Savage Rush (his mobility is trully awesome and so fun to have in hands !)).

Gonna try this escape/active skill. But as always, in Hardcore mod.
It's maybe the best option, retry with some modif in the build.

Thank you for your advices :) Wish you to continue having fun with your spe (and hope it will help me ! Just need a little break in Zerk, getting mad in Stream isn't... Nice to reseen :D )

So you killed the mobs with Savage Rush and then got caught by the blast while Ravage was going off? Unfortunate.

Yeah, Shadow Burst is the escape skill of choice. It pushes you through mobs without getting hit, plus you can recover some health. Savage Rush is still great for long distance travel.

Well, yes, Shadow Burst is a good escape skill. It's also good for regaining health quickly. But, when I first started using it, I was also surprised to learn how good it is for crowd control. Just gather a bunch enemies and keep rushing back and forth through them. The crowd diminishes quickly enough.

For bosses, start punching and whenever they are about to hit hard, or you need some HP, do a Shadow Burst and go back to punching. I was happily amazed that this skill worked so well, since I was forced to play mostly one-handed back then. I usually play the Berserker with 2-handed claws or maces, but sometimes with axes. If I'm playing hardcore elite and not wanting to have to concentrate so much, I might use a shield for added defense.

I agree Shadow Burst is SUPER ! I didn't seen how cool it was ^_^
Thank you a lot about this tip dear TL2 commu' ! You have really help my hardcore character, I finally do a Zerk again and I feel better with this skill. Thx again and have fun !

The original developers, Runic Games, has not existed for some years now, and the game franchise has been sold and resold a number of times now.
