Berserker Darts only affect monsters. I usually just sell items that have a percent chance to be successful. For a ranged attack, darts are too weak. Throwing axes are a better alternative or arrows/bolts for the appropriate long range weapon.
I think Darts are good for single-class Mages that have few options on Missile Weapons. But I agree, I'm not much of a fan of percentage effects either .
Darts are awesome weapons against spellcasters. Since you throw three in a round, there's a pretty good chance you'll disrupt their spells. The chance at sending the spellcaster into a rage (and forcing them to enter melee combat) is a huge bonus on top of it all.
I'll be saving these darts for some mage fights, thanks!
