But everything becomes a serious thing when you count in Buriza. We all know the Buriza+DA synergy - it simply becomes one of the hardest-hitting abilities of the game (we're talking Earthquake-like damage counting all bonuses); many don't know that Buriza also works on Bolas, basically making it hit 3 targets and exploding three times - istantly when coupled with the quiver.
That's interesting, but I'm not sure that DA can home back to the target it has already hit. And Bolas definitely can't. So Buriza will really shine only if there is a (small) crowd of mobs around. Thankfully, the 2.1.2 will update mob density in rifts and unless the patch introducing this new set will revert that, it will be hard to find yourself without those extra mobs in normal rifts... now, many (bounty) bosses will be an entirely different story, as will be the Grift RGs...
As an alternative, maybe Nat's crossbow + Nat's ring to get extra discipline (over 30 if have decent roll on xbow) and thus extra damage. Depending on how (Depth Diggers + Simplicity) and set damage buffs stack, those extra 30+ discipline might actually be preferable.
I think that the sentry was originally picked as a means of crowd control (and to proc bane of trapped).
The companion - for 10 seconds damage burst (though as a hardcore player, I'd pick extra toughness from boar). And it can actually be discarded in favor of something else. Not sure what to stick in there, though... Some experimentations are needed, but the set isn't there for us to play with...
