Oh no doubt. I'm not discouraging people from playing the Berserker in any way shape or form. That's why I wrote this guide!
I was just saying that if someone decides to swap to zerker during wave 7 in a long/Hard server because they see a good zerker with his chainsaw decapitating fleshpounds and it leads to a team wipe, it's not a good thing.
LOL. My point exactly. I mean, I take it as a compliment if I get a Dopplezerker, but Hard mode isn't exactly the best place for a Level 0 or Level 1 (Level 2 if they're LUCKY!) to learn the ropes of a class they have almost no experience in!
The only ones worse are the BLATANTLY farmed Level 5 Zerkers that don't know how to get past the 1st wave on hard, despite spawning with the Chainsaw. Hey, at least they give a free Chainsaw when they die, though!
I'd say this guide is more or less complete now. It does take a lot of practice. If any newbie zerkers are reading this: For your own good, I suggest practicing extensively in Normal before you make the jump to hard, both to level your perk and to get a feel for the enemies. I'd say once you play on Normal long enough to hit Level 3, you're okay to try hard, but don't be discouraged when you die (And you WILL. A lot!)
