you think berseker + nightblade will work?
I am currently running a Korba’s set Berserk+Nightblade, which has been fine so far for Ascendant difficulty (tried Calla and had no troubles, and Dread is quite easy), but testing the new Crucible I noticed I was severely lacking in defensive options (primarily stun and freeze resists) so I checked this build’s Devotion set-up.
Previously I also tried a Deathmarked version but I had very little gear to support it and Korba’s out-performed it. I will try the set-up in this post with some modifications for Berserker once I have enough rep for the Augments but it looks pretty good at first glance - although I see some potential issues regarding health. Luckily I have all the pieces - need to re-roll only two affixes (fingers crossed for good rolls). But actual testing might not happen for a while 
To the author of the post - many thanks; this was very helpful for even someone like me who’s not going for the exact same classes.

Health issue can be mitigated, to a certain degree, with ascended affixes.
As you might noticed, ascended affixes are not there in grimtools as I haven’t got the time and resources to make them meaningful, but lets theorycraft here a bit.
-
weapons should get +4% atk speed affix
-
I would pump execution to 50% and drop belgothian’s shears
-
Get as much health as I can
-
I would probably want that juicy armor boost as well.
1.3.0.4. + Hotfixes 
Yep, that nerf made me a bit sad too. I tried it in crucible 180-200 on my (still incomplete) Korba’s Cold Reaver for which I copied your devotion set-up and I could feel the difference, but I think it’s still solid.
