The Berserker (バーサーカー, Baasaakaa) class is a class of strong axe-wielders who can cross seas. Usually they are the promoted form of pirates. In Mystery of the Emblem, they are an enemy-only class that uses swords; only one berserker is seen in the whole game. In Thracia 776 they are still enemy-only, although they do use axes. From The Binding Blade, they became playable as upgraded pirates and have remained so for future games. In Path of Radiance, they are the promoted form of bandits.

Berserkers are strong units with high attack and speed. However, like other axe users, they sometimes have below-average skill and low resistance, like other physical units. Still, they have good defense and are generally very sturdy. In the GBA games, they have a critical bonus: 30% in The Binding Blade, 15% in Blazing Sword and The Sacred Stones.
