Berserk VS Woad Raider | Age of Empires 2

Ойындар

Let's compare the Elite versions of the Viking's unique unit the Berserk and the Woad Raider from the Celts. These two units are almost identical in stats, same cost, same base attack, and almost same hit points and melee armor. Their bonuses are different but both are consider suitable for raiding. Let's do a short review:
Viking unique infantry unit, the Berserk, that slowly heals itself. Strong vs. infantry and siege weapons. Weak vs. archers. Generate gold when destroying Villagers (5 gold), Trade Units (20 gold) and Monks (20 gold).
Celtic unique infantry unit, the Woad Raider. Fast-moving. Strong vs. infantry and siege weapons. Weak vs. archers and cavalry.
What are you thoughts on them?

    I like how in the side-by-side comparisons, they both scoot over to the other like they're dying to gossip about their work day 😂😂😂

    I would take the Berserker, cause I like self-healing in games. It's like having a monk with your army at all times.

    Really interesting that the berserk wins 1v1, but loses in 30v30. I'd guess that on 1v1 the regen is constantly working and the fight lasts long enough for the regen to give the berserk the edge. In the 30v30 fight, some berserks are being attacked by multiple woads so they're killed too quickly for the regen to be impactful, while other berserks aren't being attacked at all and stay at full health so their regen isn't doing anything. So the slight edge that the berserk had on 1v1 is lost and the woads take the victory.

    The woads are also faster which probably helps them to regroup quickly and use their remaining numbers advantage

    This is far from the most important factor, which is pathing. The speed of woad raiders helps them tremendously in getting ready to attack another unit after one has previously died. It greatly enhances their DPS, where berserks, even quite fast units overall, can struggle more in that department.

    Both are great raiding units……berserks can deal with cavalry but woad raiders can run from cavalry so both are really good infantry . Also celts castles can heal woad raiders and have good training time…..berserks regen is op in general

    I was trying to point out the difference of Berserk's bonus damage to cavalry against regular units. Sometimes units have hidden bonuses and a demonstration against regular units is helpful. Even the no results are still results, right?
