The First Berserker Khazan Attributes and Weapon Scaling, Explained

Everything you need to know about the attributes in The First Berserker Khazan and how they affect weapon scaling as well as build-crafting.

The First Berserker Khazan features elements from both the traditional souls-like genre as well as the more action-oriented games like Nioh and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Much like in Nioh, The First Berserker features a robust build-crafting system with a dedicated weapon scaling that allows you to evolve your build as you level up your base attributes.

However, understanding the weapon scaling can be quite tricky, especially if you’re not familiar with games of similar ilk. Although The First Berserker features a limited number of weapon types, it features a rather complex build-crafting system, which takes into account both, the base attributes as well as the weapon skills.

Here’s everything you need to know about The First Berserker Khazan’s attributes and weapon scaling systems.

All Attributes in The First Berserker Khazan

The First Berserker Khazan features a straightforward leveling system, akin to most action RPGs out there. As you progress through the game, you acquire Lacrima, which is the equivalent of “Souls” in the game. Using the Lacrima, you can level up Khazan’s base attributes. The base attributes include Vitality, Endurance, Strength, Willpower, and Proficiency.

Out of the five attributes, Willpower and Proficiency are the ones that primarily dictate weapon damage. Strength also plays a big role in scaling weapon damage, in the case of Dual Wield and Greatsword. However, its primary use case is to limit the overall equipment weight or encumbrance.

Vigor and Endurance dictate the Elemental Resistances, total HP, and Stamina. Do note that every stat upgrade contributes to the Total Health and Attack Damage. However, based on the weapon you choose, the amount gained from leveling up said attributes can change.

For instance, if you’re using a Spear, your overall weapon damage will scale primarily with Proficiency, followed by Willpower. You can get additional base damage power from leveling up Strength, but the value received won’t be as substantial as leveling up Proficiency.

Here’s a list of all the base attributes in The First Berserker Khazan:

• Vitality: Total Health, Defense, and Resistance.
• Endurance: Total Health, Max Stamina, and Defense.
• Strength: Total Health and Weight.
• Willpower: Attack Damage and Defense.
• Proficiency: Attack Damage and Defense.

Weapon Scaling in The First Berserker Khazan

Spear

• Primary attribute: Proficiency
• Secondary attribute: Willpower

Dual Wield

• Primary attribute: Willpower
• Secondary attribute: Strength

Greatsword

Make sure that you keep the weapon scaling in mind while leveling up Khazan. Additionally, if you want to respec to switch to a different weapon, you can do so pretty early in the game. However, to respec your attributes, you will need to collect (or craft) the Primeval Regression Orb key item.
