This effect commands the target into an insane killing fury, causing them to attack all creatures in the vicinity—starting with the closest, whether friend or foe.

The affected target must use basic Weapon Skills if they have them available (including [[Shield]]s, [[Claw]]s, and constant abilities such as [[Weapon Proficiency]] and [[Backstab]]). The player of a Berserked character may make an OOG choice whether they want their character to utilize and expend per-day abilities and equipment such as spells, [[Resist]]s, [[Bane]]s, Alchemy [[globes]], etc. Please note that this is an OOG choice for the player based on how they wish to utilize their character’s abilities and equipment; the character has no IG options as to what they utilize. Characters are never forced to utilize Necromancy spells or items unless the player chooses to have them to do, with full understanding that this may impact their character IG.

A character must make a legitimate effort to attack the nearest target in some manner if they have any means to do so at their disposal (with the caveats above).

A person under the effects of a [[Berserk]] will not stop to give a [[Killing Blow]] or search a target, but will immediately turn to find something else to attack once their current target falls or is no longer the closest target.
