I think it depends on playstyle/personal preference. I really like using Desert Wind for CC, especially the slide melee combo which holds the enemies in the air for some time. They can also be good for shoving enemies off interception points, over ledges, away from downed allies, etc...

If you want to go for high damage Desert Wind probably isn't worth it. I think they can reach orange crits but there are better melee weapons for straight up damage. Really I think Baruuk is best used as a CC frame with survivability options first, a Wukong style tank that never dies but never offers anything to your teamates second, and a damage frame with survivability options third. Again though, it all comes down to your prefered playstyle.
