Unless that band numbered in the 100s, I would wonder why he used Berserk on them. Humakti do not normally go berserk except as a Final Run tactic, when desperately outnumbered. It is supposed to be used with as much forethought as Sever Spirit (RQ)/Kill With A Glance. Here, he seems to use it because it is so much fun.

I sounds like he is about ready to discover that he is no longer a Humakti, and has become Uraini, instead. Have some Uroxi start checking him out. When the player loses the character to an *ambush* of berserks, that will teach him about the dangers of excessive use.
