Salve!
A new patch and a new chance for builds. Malkadarr’s Dreadblade got a really nice buff and forms the heartpiece of this build. This guy kills really fast - i had problems taking a screenshot of the char screen. Most of the time my target is dead before Beronath’s Fury was fully charged.
=[ CONCEPT ]===============
Default attack Beronath’s Fury -also buffed in 1.1.7.0- with 100% WPS and massive flat damage bonus via Soul Harvest/Lethal Assault. I pushed 450%-Weapon-Damage-Execution and Necrotic Edge to the sky (55% usage) and took 45% Reaping Strike/Whirling Death for adcth and aoe.
With all Procs/Passives/Actives

Farming Crucible is very comfortable with this build (3 Buffs / 1 Banner). I played shard 50 for the skill-point-quest with no problem so far.

SS/Fly on Rylok Wings in and activate Soul Harvest/Lethal Assault (keep it up preferably without spamming for more WPS). Change target’s as soon as you can see that frostburn kills them. Thouger enemies get Ring of Steel/Mark of Torment. Keep Pneumatic Burst up.
