Excuse me if this sounds ignorant. I'm hoping someone can enlighten me as to the benefit of a berserker rifle? It has ok damage, and no AP. I understand that it is heat damage, and it's nice to have a different damage type. But is there any use for this rifle other than to use against those few mobs that have high energy/stun resist, and no heat resist? I must be missing something.....Can you light someone on fire with it? 
This is not a flame....it is an honest question to find out why this rifle is good. (other than the cool looks)

it's not very good at all and people only buy it because it's rare and makes a nice house decoration

i find the beserker incredibly good.
low ham costs, (30 for mine)
very good close range mods, the ideal range is 25
and good damage, mine is 500 max
key thing is the crazy low mind costs, GREAT for unbuffed pvp. sure this has no effect on insanely overpowered humans with 1100 focus... but its good for non humans

yeah, when you're defending and don't have a doctor to rebuff. even then the berserker is worthless because everyone is still running around in their 70%+ heat resist composite

Nice deco, nice sound, and cool for showoff.
damage is abit lower than a dxr6b unsliced, can go over 400 max damage sliced without any enhancement.
those with spider fangs would go over of course.
range mod is cool as well (ideal @25m)
I had a speed slice on my first one, I'll get the second tomorrow.
nice gun for leveling, but way too expensive (got 2 components for 1.650M both, got the schem for 200k)
