A few adjustments are possible, especially to trade some DPS for some toughness.

I personally farm T10 easily with this build and get tons of death breath.

The only drawback is that you are weak and slow if you loose all your furious charges. Pay attention to that. Appart from that, it's the fastest build I've tried (not the fastest build that exist, the fasted I tried).

I don't farm gold in T10 because you get much more gold in GR that I find insignificant the amount of gold you can get here. Plus, with furious charge, you move too fast to retrieve gold, even with avarice band. You will then be much slower if you have to go back to pick up gold.

Probably cooldown reduction first, for furious charge. I'm not playing this in season that i've already maxed out every slot in parangon.

Build Guide

I'm playing this in Non Season, in solo, without any survivability problems.

Charge to each elite or pylon, use boulder to reduce the cooldown of wrath of the berserker, keep full fury when leaving a pack to be able to spam sprint to reach the next one in case the map is empty (to keep some charge to attack the pack when you reach it)
