Last night the party were fighting a band of Trollkin and winning very easily. The player, a Humakti, rolled for berserk and failed the roll. So he then used a Hero Point to force a success and go Berserk.

With two levels of mastery he was routinely getting a critical against the Trollkin and gaining AP at a frightening rate. This seems to be the case, a successful berserker with mastery gains AP almost exponentially, like a sponge for the AP in the combat.

He's already killed the leader of the Hidden Gale during a Berserk frenzy and they were on the same side at the time.

I'm increasingly inclined to not allow the use of Hero Points for affinity/feat rolls just to stop this kind of thing. If your Gods not listening then shouting won't help.
