After some thought and some numbers research, I feel the following. Berserk as a stand alone status is pretty worthless in most cases, with the *only* benefit being healing since the bth loss isnt there. Berserk gives you a damage buff and a bth loss. With this specific guest....Turns out, this is technically a wash. The bth loss reduces your average DPT back down, largely nullifying the damage buff. But to gain benefit from berserk, this means you need to either A. The Player-> Use other stuff to negate the bth loss, such as auto-hit, or a bth enhance spell/items. Or B. Berserk on monsters->Blocking/blind builds can use it to push hit rates down with other blind/mrm stacks, making you even more difficult to hit. Pure builds only need about 86 total mrm buff/blind/berserk/dext loss(entangle) to become unhittable. I have done this using Rose in Full Bloom Pet, and hairmuffs. This specific guest, I see no reason to use it over other guests if you're a BM. It wont provide better blocking than bun barrets. If you want to heal, use healing guests. Nightbane is great for that. Where I may see this guest excel, actually, is as a booster pet for non BM's. It will give you berserk on your pure build, and likely fails the status inflict on the monster, which unless youre trying to dodge, may be ideal.
