Unlocking and Evolving Berserker in Anime Squadron
In Anime Squadron, the Berserker unit is a highly coveted Secret-rarity character inspired by the iconic hero Guts from the Berserk manga. Known for its dual role as a powerful damage dealer and a resilient tank, Berserker is a game-changer for players pushing through difficult content. Whether you are farming for high-tier gear or tackling raids, understanding how to obtain and awaken this unit is essential for optimizing your team composition.
To add Berserker to your roster, you must successfully complete Act 4 of the Eclipse (Before) Squadron stage. While the unit can drop on both Normal and Hard difficulties, the drop rates differ significantly. According to community experience, the Hard difficulty offers a more favorable 0.5% drop rate with a 200-run pity counter, compared to the 0.25% rate and 300-run pity on Normal. For the most efficient grind, players are encouraged to assemble a high-damage team—often utilizing units like Gogeta SSJ4 or Vegeta SSJ4—to clear the level as rapidly as possible.
Berserker Awakening Requirements
Once you have successfully summoned the Berserker unit, the next stage of progression is awakening it into Berserker (Enraged). This process requires a substantial collection of specific materials gathered from the Eclipse (Before) story and raid stages.
200x Behelit: Chapter 1 of Eclipse (Before) Squadron.
100x Apostle Iron: Chapters 1 and 2 of Eclipse (Before) Story.
75x Eclipse Stone: Chapters 3 and 4 of Eclipse (Before) Story.
50x White Behelit: All levels in the Eclipse (Before) Raid.
50x Brand Ash: Chapters 5 and 6 of Eclipse (Before) Story.
30x Moonlit Silver: Chapters 7 and 8 of Eclipse (Before) Story.
15x Black Sun Amber: Chapters 9 and 10 of Eclipse (Before) Story.
5000 Gold: Global reward from Story and Squadron levels.
Players should note that the Dragon Slayer (evo) item is a key component obtained from the same stage where you find the base unit. Because this is a high-cost evolution, it is advisable to prioritize farming the required items systematically while checking daily shop resets for any missing gear or crafting components.
Mastering Berserker (Enraged) Capabilities
After awakening, Berserker (Enraged) becomes a premier frontliner. Its unique passive abilities allow it to excel in challenging environments, such as raids and the Katakara Bridge Challenge.
Endless Slaughter
Every attack inflicts a 10% Bleed debuff over 3 seconds, effectively reducing enemy regeneration by 75%, making it excellent for high-HP bosses.
Supernatural Armor
This passive scales damage based on health lost (+0.5% damage per 1% HP lost) and grants a 20% cooldown reduction once the unit drops below 30% HP.
Delay the Inevitable
A survival mechanic that grants a 30% temporary HP boost upon near-defeat, with Refusal stacks delaying the final HP drain.
Community reports emphasize that Berserker (Enraged) is most effective when paired with high-quality gear. Players should aim to roll for the "Superior" trait to maximize overall stats and further reduce ability cooldowns. Utilizing Perfect Cubes and Reroll Cubes to achieve SSS-grade stats is the recommended end-game goal for this unit.
Strategic Tips for Raids and Gameplay
The ultimate ability of Berserker (Enraged), "Beast of Darkness," is unlocked once the unit reaches level 5. This skill transforms the unit into a tactical powerhouse by consuming Refusal stacks to provide scaling buffs depending on the situation.
Buff Prioritization: If your HP is below 30%, you gain a 5% damage boost per stack. Between 30% and 60% HP, you gain 3% defense per stack. Above 60% HP, you gain 3% cooldown reduction per stack.
Team Synergy: Because the unit is a Secret-rarity tank/DPS hybrid, it fits well into teams that already feature primary buffers or money-generation units like Speedwagon.
Avoiding Common Mistakes: Many players overlook the importance of the specific elemental matchups in the Eclipse stages. Always ensure your team composition is not being hampered by elemental debuffs, as this will significantly slow down your farming efficiency.
