Sword of Jihad can be very useful if you can nerf the berserkitis. Clarity is the best means of doing so, either through the amulet or through being an Ashenzari worshiper. Given all the other useful intrinsics it provides, this weapon may even be worth using for a character who has to nerf the berserkitis via an amulet of clarity: just switch to conservation or resist mutation as needed, and keep a backup weapon just in case.
