Last Updated on April 13, 2024 by Samuel Franklin

This Blood Berserker build guide will give you the recipe for success when using this explosive melee fighter and cooking expert to progress your Idleon account. As a specialist in the World 4 cooking skill the Blood Berserker spends time in the town kitchen to add hundreds of hours of cooking progress with the right talents while killing millions of monsters with their high damage potential.

In this guide I provide comprehensive information about all of the Blood Berserker talents with a damage and cooking talent preset priority list for players to follow which can be adjusted based on your own specific account progression or goals. This Blood Berserker guide should be read in conjunction with our Barbarian build guide and other Idleon builds page.

Idleon Blood Berserker Damage Build

While fighting won’t be the primary account contribution of the Blood Berserker they are a capable fighter for bosses and AFK with some powerful new attack talents. A combat build is also important for players as there is a cooking talent called Apocalypse Chow that builds on the Barbarian’s Apocalypse Zow to once again send players to cause devastation on all Idleon monsters with a million kills on each rewarding cooking skill efficiency.

This talent damage build below is focused on maximising your AFK gains to speed up your Apocalypse Chow completion with the following priority order:

Talent	Effect	Notes
Charred Skulls	+% Kill per kill per 1,000 STR	The main investment for the Blood Berserker fighting build as this adds extra kills to help you reach the million monster kills for Apocalypse Chow. If your Blood Berserker has less than 1,000 strength when advancing to this elite class you may want to skip this now as the gains will be minimal.
Fired Up	Inflame yourself boosting attack speed. Basic attacks refresh inflamed time	One of the Blood Berseker active talents that should be placed on your attack bar. At the elite class stage of Idleon progression attack talents have only a small impact on overall gains so I recommend only a single talent point here to unlock the use of this talent. and returning to this talent after you have maxed everything else listed below.
Combustion	If Inflamed releases you fire and deals damage to monsters near you	Same as above place one point here. This talent is useful for area of effect damage for active activities like bossing.
Serrated Swipe	Slash repeatedly if inflamed dealing damage to monsters	Same as above place one point here.
Symbols Of Beyond ~R	+ Level for all talents higher than level 1 (bonus increases every 20 levels)	Increasing all other talents (including Warrior and Barbarian) that you have at least one talent point in this provides an all around boost to your damage and AFK gains. For every 20 talent levels invested here the level of other talents will increase by 1 automatically.
Overblown Testosterone	+% STR and + max talent level for Fist of Rage	Providing a percentage STR gain and the potential to gain flat strength from your Warrior talent tab with spare talent points this is a notable damage and skill boost. It also feeds into Charred Skulls to help acquire large monster kill counts.
Tough Steaks	+ Weapon power for every 10 cooking levels	While weapon power is powerful early game by the time you unlock elite classes it has reduced effectiveness amongst all your other accumulated sources. Given this also scales with cooking levels which are difficult to acquire this is a low priority damage talent.
Ferocity Strike	+% chance for basic attacks to hit twice	Improving your chance to hit enemies twice this is the last useful attack talent as Ember Bear is a weak upgrade and not important to invest in.

Idleon Blood Berserker Cooking Build

The Blood Berserker is a cooking specialist and with optimising your talents can provide higher cooking ladles per day, extra progress for each ladle used and the ability to instantly finish recipes. To maximise your gains players will also need to invest in post office, cards, prayers and other sources of account skill efficiency.

For a cooking talent build players should add the following priority order talents to their Warrior mining talent preset:

Talent	Effect	Notes
Overflowing Ladle	Cooking ladles used by this character give +% extra AFK time	The strongest boost to your cooking output comes from boosting the time benefit that cooking ladles provide provided you use them on your Blood Berserker. The best source of cooking ladles initially is from the World 4 colosseum which can be boosted by this talent. Other sources include quests and the mushroom mini boss on the first World 4 map.
Waiting To Cool	+% Cooking AFK gains	Boosting your AFK cooking gains will have a notable boost to your overall ladle gain.
Apocalypse Chow	+% Cooking EXP and Efficiency for every monster you kill over 1 million times. Higher levels increase the number of monster types counted	As players build up their Chow stacks this will provide increasing benefits to experience and importantly efficiency for more ladles.
Symbols Of Beyond ~R	+ Level for all talents higher than level 1 (bonus increases every 20 levels)	Like with the Blood Berserker combat build this allows you to gain a few extra talent levels on all of your invested in skills to boost your gains.
Skill Strengthen	STR has a +% larger impact on Skill Efficiency. Also + STR	STR scales slowly with cooking efficiency that makes this a lower priority talent although it does also boost mining and fishing gains that make it worth inclusion in your skilling preset.
Overblown Testosterone	+% STR and + max talent level for Fist of Rage	Similar to above provides some extra STR for all of your skilling needs.
Taste Test	Finishes all recipes but keeps % of the recipe fire	When activated any new recipe attempts across your kitchens will be completed (only if they have enough fire level already) and if it fails you’ll retain a percentage of the fire they had built up. This is the lowest priority talent of all cooking talents as it has limited effective use cases. In theory this sounds good but in practice your limited talent points and the massive cooldown on this talent means it provides little progression benefit. Retaining a percentage of your fire progress (50% at level 100) is actually quite weak given that your recipe attempts are most efficient after only a small amount of time has passed. For example reaching a single recipe fire level can often only be a matter of minutes and might give you a 50% new recipe success chance while a second fire level may take hours and only boost your chance of success to 55%. As a result when attempting to unlock new recipes short attempts are more efficient and can be rapidly performed by saving up ladles to use in between attempts. If your Idleon cooking recipe attempts are more than a few hours to reach a single fire level or have a low chance of success it’s generally a good sign you should be investing in new recipe chance improvements instead before attempting new recipes rather than relying on this long cooldown talent.
