@Soranos : No i'm not thinking of doing a lot of critical damage nor I am thinking of going with full zerk line up. I'm thinking of how often I can use this dude for anything. His kit is fully self-sustaining in the sense you don't need to cover him for anything to get value out of him.

Let's use MHXA as example, MHXA IMO are the best or maybe 2nd best (with MHXX out) sure critical servant support in this game that capable of doing what zerker do best (E.g hit hard) while making the best use one of zerk biggest weakness a.k.a the star absorb. However MHXA suffer from one crippling weakness which is no survival kit other than self-heal, which means if you don't carry anyone who can protect your party MHXA is pretty much doomed.

XY on the other hand sacrifice the team support capability of MHXA (The atk up + absorb down) in order to avoid the same weakness of MHXA with his evasion, this makes him more self sustaining and you can use him in wider setup than MHXA while getting the same utility as MHXA. Even his 2nd buff is perfectly good since it's downright update of MHXA 2nd skill with more damage on buff.

And again said big utility of this type is to turn zerker low star absorb weakness to strength. while he's no KH he got decent star generated for his normal attack made him a perfect zerk to take as 3rd member of your party when you're not sure what else to take. This guy will kill anything for sure and while at it your main Hitter and probably support will benefit from any stars generated. If anything think of him as more like KH that hit hard equally to almost every enemy but squishier.

Also by the sithis if the stars ever align and you get even a single cards of him with decent Crit chance and you get a clean hit in it'll be super painful even more than Raiko and rivals that of Hijikata.. it's not what I would aim but it's a nice bonus. I still believe that main hitter zerker is too RNG dependent that it's unrelieable, however support Zerker as 3rd member filler is really good if you know what you're doing.
