Berserk (Final Fantasy VI status)

Berserk is a status in Final Fantasy VI. A character affected with berserk will attack enemies uncontrollably with a physical damage bonus of +50% and have red skin on their battle sprite. Affected enemies will always use normal physical attacks. The affected character(s) can use Attack or any of the following commands if available: Attack, Mug, Jump, Rage, or Magitek. Attack appears twice; the first is always available, for instance where it allows the character(s) without the command to use it, and increases the odds for everyone else. Adding Berserk status to the Rage status does not seem to affect behavior as the character will continue to use whatever abilities the Rage makes available, but Berserk still provides the damage bonus. Adding Berserk status to the Dance status appears to have no effect at all. Any commands entered, but has yet to be executed before the status is inflicted will continue normally, with the damage bonus taking effect if applicable. Berserk is cured at the end of battle.
Umaro is in a constant uncontrollable pseudo-berserk state. Gau (and Gogo, due to his/her ability to use Rage), once having chosen a monster from the Rage list, become uncontrollable for the rest of the battle. Mog also falls into this state after successfully dancing. All these states are similar to the berserk ailment, and the berserk status can still be applied on top of these pseudo-berserk states.
If a character is inflicted with the berserk status while riding a magitek armor, they randomly attack with Fire Beam, Ice Beam, or Thunder Beam on a random enemy. This can be a problem if some of the enemies absorb elements.
