My original answer was based on the Beserker only have base 969, which is low for inclusion in an Arena team. I was not disparaging the class per se, as it is definitely playable. There are better options, however, and since it has been brought up, let’s examine them (I will use numbers based on my 50/12 classes and ignore any critical additions, as these are gear dependent, not inherent to any class):
First, Beserker is not Bomb’s highest damaging class. This is Frost Savage. You are concluding Beserker’s damage based on full Rage, so I will assume Frost Savage’s attack against a frozen target.
Beserker base 1808 + 50% due to full Rage is 2712 damage
FS base 1915 x 150% attack on frozen is 2872

Next, are you really considering Beserker’s Frenzy as a viable AoE attack? The most it can do is a 5% knock on the banner, which for me is 25,339, equivalent of 1266 damage to all (granted this could be more if I equipped a non-Set banner, but would one really sacrifice these bonuses simply for higher Frenzy damage?). Really an insignificant damage at my level where the weakest Bird is ~3500 hp. This attack also is independent on Rage state and is not increased.

For direct comparison, Sea Dog does 2659 damage next to Beserker’s 2712, so almost identical. Yes, the damage goes down significantly when he is damaged, but so does Beserker’s after the first round (assuming Golden Chili and its use in the first round). There are direct ways to control and improve Sea Dog’s damage, whereas there are none for Beserker, except Rage increasing items, which, again, sacrifices the overall team effectiveness. You are also all ignoring the incredible advantage of Gang Up, as you are therefore getting, at the very least, an extra attack every two turns, and more than that if you play the class correctly and have some luck with the toss and Time Jump procs. This can be truly devastating.
