God-Tier Berserkers

here and today we've got a rating your doomsday video covering wolfrick The Wanderer with a Marauder Berserker Doom stack now these guys here have possibly some of the highest stats you'll ever see on any melee infantry unit in the game the degree to which this guy has boosted this unit is be basically Beyond ridiculous as far as I'm concerned it's essentially maxed out so if we have a look at it weapon strength 151 I don't even think aspiring Champions have that much weapon strength now most of it is base weapon damage but you've still got 46 armor-piercing damage in there 107 melee attack uh 59 speed now these are the three stats here that are actually being boosted over and over again due to Resource uh acquisition throughout the campaign so there are dies that you can obtain which will increase the speed of maraudi units and also Furs Furs will increase the melee attack and weapon strengths specifically for Marauder Berserkers so you can end up with murder Berserkers that are vastly stronger than Marauder Champions which are a tier above them anyway in this battle I think here we're going up against rikeland where they've got a bit more than two full Stacks there's some high tier units in here most of it is sort of mid-tier stuff I'm only going to use the marauder Berserkers here Order resolve on very high battle Difficulty says pirig Victory but we'll see how they actually perform manually also he's done all of the sea encounters to give them those temporary Buffs so he's got the extra physical resistance the uh curse of cannibalism the extra melee attacker melee defense also Marauder Berserkers have the berserk Stat or trait which means that the longer they're in combat they'll get more physical resistance and more melee attack so that's uh this one here berserk so if we have a look at it they currently have 55 physical resistance but with an additional up to 20 percent eventually now they will Rampage when that happens but that's that's fine they'd be up to 75 mL um physical resistance not quite as high as it was for the um Savage orc Biggins but the Savage or Biggins didn't have this much melee attack and weapon strength but in all honesty I think that that physical resistance on its own sort of Trumps those other stats but let's just see how these perform so I'm not going to attack them right away I just want to get into position this is definitely the kind of army that you want to spread out wide you want every single man to be in combat you don't want to have a Big Blob or a big back line of people just not standing around not fighting you want them all chopping down enemy units but yeah I really do appreciate it when people send in these maxed out Doom Stacks obviously most people are probably not going to do this in their campaign it's not really practical to do it and if you can get to the point where you you can build this you've probably already won the campaign but it really is as I've said before um sort of a vanity project there's nothing wrong with that once you've essentially won the campaign what you want to do with your campaign is entirely up to you and that's what makes or any particular Total War game have a really long shelf life if there's things to do after you know the campaign is won as opposed to just if you've won the campaign there's nothing else to do but obviously not everyone's going to do this and the game does not force you to do it and if you find it boring that's cool then you just don't have to do it the game does not force you to do this stuff all right just waiting for them to get organized I'm getting shot a little bit it's charging they really shouldn't have set up in the forest because that gives us an advantage over their missile units but I don't care so normally great swords should rip Marauder Berserkers to shreds because mortar Berserkers are and great swords are both anti-infantry but they've got uh quite a lot of armor but in this case here no great swords don't stand a chance get in there close up pull through allows you to uh get more of your guys in combat yep just pull through that's what you want to say okay car France coming in here let's see how he goes with this [Applause] our friends is a strong legendary Lord so I didn't expect him to one shot kill him [Music] [Applause] yes so already good kills on this guy here and he's fighting great swords with no other backup now obviously in a normal battle we're not doing a test you would use these guys here but when we're testing out these units obviously we're going to use a special uh restrictions right pull through there we're too blobbed up need them to kill quicker anybody standing around doing nothing is just a huge amount of weapon strength that's just going to waste [Music] [Applause] don't think we've got anyone standing around [Applause] Great Waters right just pull through a little bit there [Applause] these guys here are mostly dead yep so this guy's here for you in the great swords and they are fine they do have regen but [Music] still taking some damage yeah just a little bit of damage so we should be at mostly Seattle there we go 75 physical resistance there every now and again I expect one of them to go into uh berserk mode more Rampage Carl Franz yeah he's the one dishing out all the casualties here because he's got magical attacks bypassing all that physical resistance [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] don't Focus too much on Carl friends they're just not going to be great at dealing with them way more important to go after their missile units just pull through wherever needed okay they've got mortars and we are a little bit blobbed up here so that's not ideal let's pull two of our units out and try to get around them if possible [Applause] [Applause] for the third try to pin down the steam tanks let's get those guys around there good almost at their back line [Applause] if you ever look at the mortars they haven't done any damage I think they're just kidding have been keep hitting trees that's what the Masters mean it just sounds [Applause] nobody should be sitting around doing nothing this one here could be pulled out I suppose now he's too into the thing of any would take more damage getting out they would just staying there and I expect the ambulances to be any moment now so two full Stacks essentially killed in seven minutes although we do have a few unbreakable Unity we need to deal with yeah there's the Army losses [Applause] [Applause] this definitely puts the Rangers to shame although to be fair to the Rangers they're only tier one and these guys here they're tier two but I would say that the uh Savage orc Biggins required a hell of a lot less effort and were better there we go they actually killed Carl France quite easily and they could focus on him but as far as a melee infantry Doom stack for norska it doesn't really get much better than this this is way stronger than a mortar Champion stack would be and you could argue you know but what about the armor physical resistance kind of Trumps armor a lot of the time unless you're going up against lots of magical attacks and damage output is pretty damn this one he got killed 450. I think that's one of the ones that really got into the backline killing all the archers I'm going to take a handful of casualties now I also suspect that you can actually make this army A Little Bit Stronger If instead of using wolf Rick The Wanderer you use um Bubble spur smoke spupit which is the reward for completing the nogal line dedicating to Noble or the crow I cannot remember exactly but I'm fairly sure he provides an additional 15 physical resistance to the entire Army I can't remember exactly whereas if I remember correctly with wolf Rick he doesn't actually boost any units anymore he used to boost no he does Boost some units actually um let me just have a quick look I just can't quite remember oh my God he's yeah he's gonna go the entire mouth so if we ever look at his unique line up here this is the stuff that he boosts specific units so Spearman Marauder hunters and javelins Marauder Horsemen not really something I think worth building a doom stack around enemy leadership minus five reduced upkeep cost minus 15 all right so all wolfrex seems to be doing is just making the Army a bit cheaper yeah I think he used to boost Marauders in Warhammer too but I just can't remember so this Army is absolutely dirt cheap but I think he's only got yeah he's only got a couple of armies there but that is ridiculously cheap for what these guys here can dish out in value in terms of do you need to have wolf Rick The Wanderer for this no because he's he's not the one providing all of the Buffs What's Happening Here is you've got extra five percent speed for each one of these um dies which he said that there are 12 die buildings throughout the map and then he said that furs here yeah this one's more important melee attack plus two and weapon strength plus five percent is that there are 13 fur buildings throughout the map right and look at this he didn't actually finish any of the dedications into the hounds gaze which gives um weapon strengths plus 10 what else is he possibly missing none of the stuff is going to make the male infantry any stronger except for um well there's reduced upkeep costs 10 percent except for this guy here bubbles Merc spew pit getting him he is definitely the best legendary Lord for norsko he's amazing so I've checked out all four of these now and he is by far the best all right cool so rating this obviously most people are not going to get these guys stand up to this absurd degree well you don't have to conquer the entire map in order to get all 13 uh fur buildings because they're in specific locations and there are some areas that are quite third devoid you know even if you got three or four fur buildings you'd start to really see a significant boost in these guys strengths because they're good units just on their own because they're nice and quick they're cheap easy to replace and they dish out loads of damage which is really important with Melanie patreon a lot of Melanie actually don't do that so even if you've only got just a little bit of a boost you can get a lot of value out of these guys so I'd say that in terms of cost Effectiveness this is a very cost effective doomstack for norsko you don't have to play as the world walkers for that but if we have a look here you do have reduced upkeep cost former order units so it is slightly better if you are playing as as um and Oscar but they don't have any financial troubles anymore so that's not really an issue uh in terms of ease of use it's pretty easy to use them just spread them out and charge just watch out for Mass amounts of missile units and magical attacks and then you should be fine anything in melee they'll rip from the shreds in terms of strength obviously the more of those buildings you get the stronger this is going to be when you don't have any of those resources these guys here they'll they'll they'll go up against things that are of equal value and do a decent job but you're not going to walk out of every fight with basically no damage it's only once you start getting all of the start to get some of the Buffs that you can get and there's loads through Technologies and by obtaining um like certain capitals so that you can get the technology from that uh only once you've done all of that where you really start to see these guys here get super strong that's kind of what happens with norska now they snowball significantly by the end game where it was the opposite case in Warhammer 2 even though they still had those Buffs because of the supply lines they actually got it got harder and harder as the campaign progressed because you couldn't occupy every settlement but in warmer three North scooter is stupidly strong you know I really appreciate this guy putting in this maximum amount of effort to get this done um Marana berserk is a stupidly strong but I'd say that the Savage orc Biggins are still stronger than them and in a straight-up fight they would win anyway that's the end of this one here guys let me know in the comments below what you think of this doomstack whether it exceeded or didn't meet your expectations let me know appreciate you guys don't forget to subscribe and we'll see you next time later guys
