A Berserker Knight is a Space Pirate heavily mutated by Phazon. They have Phazite plating on their weak spot which was created due to such heavy mutation. Normally to destroy the plating, shooting the purple orbs it fires will damage it, then the plating will be destroyed and their weak spot will be open to attack. However with the use of the X-Ray Visor in combination with the Nova Beam, Samus can target its weak spot to instantly kill the creature.

Logbook entry

"A Berserker Knight's Phazite armor must be removed before unit can be damaged: only the Phazon-based projectile attacks the creature fires can destroy it. The Berserker Knight serves as a shocking example of the lengths the Space Pirates will go to in their quest for dominance. Heavily mutated by Phazon exposure, the unit is nearly mindless, driven by battle lust."

Trivia

Oddly, despite the Space Pirates in Metroid Prime being very hunched, the Elite Pirates stand tall and are not hunched. However, the Pirates in Corruption are less hunched (only the neck is bent), yet the Beserker Knights and Lords are very bent in structure.
