Brawler Vs. Beserker (PVE) question

My question is on who has more of the following and how they compare:

1. Survivability/self-sustain - Self heals and solo. I know with potions things are easier but that's not the only thing that helps.
2. DPS
3. Tanking - AOE and holding agro as well as taking hits.

I know the Beserker is very slow paced but hits like a truck. I also see they seem to be very gear depending. I have both classes at 50 and both can be Apex classes which I am looking forward to.

    Nobody tanks with zerkers.

    If you want tank go with brawler, it also has self heal for like 40% hp but it causes you to lose half of your rage and you need to keep it going to tank properly. For solo brawlers are prolly best and easiest to play, but theres nothing to solo now.

    Zerks are top dps so if you want that make one, brawlers can do very respectable dmg tho but tank warriors can do even more and provide attack speed buff for pt while at same being one of top dps if they want to. So if you want everything go with warrior.

    Are you comparing these classes because it's your goal to zerk tank, or do you mean zerk as a dps class?

    In any case, zerk really doesn't feel slow paced anymore, not with cyclone resets and lethal strike resets and unleash being a thing. Like Yordan said, it's top dps right now. Do yourself a favor and don't tank with it; almost everything good that zerk has going for it gets eliminated the moment you switch to tank-stance. No more lethal strike. No more cyclone, so no more cyclone resets either. Gives almost no party buffs unless you count the debuff, can't enrage, and its personal dps as a tank is minimal. It holds aggro well, but so does every other tank class in the game. It needs work.

    Brawler is probably the second worst tank in the game right now with zerktank being a distant last place. Both lancer and warrior do respectable dps in a skilled player's hands while providing amazing party buffs. Brawler does great dps and pretty much nothing else. That's not to say it's a bad tank, but it doesn't bring as much party support to the table as the others, and its dps isn't as big a deal as it used to be now that the other tanks can dps as well.

    If you're wondering what to do, I'd suggest playing zerk as a dps, or making either a lancer or a warrior to tank with instead.
