I noticed it seems that this server runs a bit past 1.62, so my question is.. Is a Berserker even worth playing? Is the full blown left axe nerf in effect on this server? I LOVED my zerk back in the day until the fateful day when zerks got bent over and ... yea we all know what happened then after we heard the zipping noise... I'm hoping beyond hope that Zerks are worth while on Uthgard, so would anyone be able to enlighten me as to how useful Zerks are, and if they can still do any semblance of decent damage like they used to?

I would LOVE to be able to play a Zerk here on uthgard, but I don't want to be setting myself up for major dissapointment if they're as bad off as they were post-1.62. I'm worried because without ToA which helped balance out the LA nerf, I felt completely worthless on my Zerk after 1.62.

I've been using the search feature to see if this has already been answered, so I do apologize if I've missed where this might have already been answered. Thanks for your time!!

Sure, they are the main melee damage dealer on midgard, better than savages (because bersis halve blockrate and savages dont).
Roll a Troll Bersi with at least +10 str and have fun.

Awesome! Thanks for the fast reply. I was considering doing a dwarf zerk though, as to be a little shorter in stature so I'm not a beacon of "KILL ME FIRST" in rvr... Thoughts?

Take a Troll.
Advice from a dwarf bersi ^^

Go Troll. The difference in Strength is huge and you won't be first target unless you overextend or something anyway.

Thanks everyone for the advice... female troll as small as I could make her has been made haha... At least there's no lost strength going that route..
