Option 5: Nothing, Berserk status and Salty Rage are fine

This is more to nerf Salty Rage than anything else. Just choose what you want to happen to Berserk. You can choose more than 1 option. I think all these are possible.
EDIT: Don't be a retard and vote options 3 and 4 at the same time, or something similar.
How about initial: Berserk instead of permanent?
Berserk has no CT, so it lasts forever.
I asked FFM if Berserk could reference wall's ct, since its a status that is never used for obvious reasons but he said he wasn't sure how to do that.
i agree with zodiac on initial berserk. that would help manage the berserk units a little bit better considering you would want them to be useful later
I like the idea that they lose all evasion the most, because it makes sense. A Berserk warrior has no regard for his own safety, he only wants to kill.
Losing all evasion seems like the simplest and fairest way to deal with Berserk if it's actually a problem.
Initial: Berserk is going to solve anything, especially since I don't think the AI will ever cure the target of Berserk since it's a neutral status like Innocent or Faith rather than a positive one like Haste or a negative one like Slow or Stop. At the very least, I can't ever remember the AI removing it.
I like the idea of losing all Evasion, and having haste being put on it too... Maybe max the brave level and half the accuracy since when you think about it... The character should be making all or nothing hits. Last time I checked Bravery makes you hit harder as well (correct me if I'm wrong) So think of The Bravery + 1/2 Accuracy as a counter Balance?

We can flag it (if it isn't already) to not stack with death, so once they die and come back they're no longer berserk instead of perma berserk. Either way, voting for evasion loss and if they doesn't work we can probably do some status flag tricksies to prevent berserk and haste or some other combination, or have it cancel when the target is somehow debuffed in another fashion or something.
