I've gone more of a tanking route with the melee build and focused mostly on fire dmg abilites just to get some variety from the cookie cutter builds popping up. With some better rolled legendaries and a few upgrades I think I could do t3-t4 solo without too much effort. Right now I'm simply too low dps to kill anything efficiently at that level.
The setup:
Spectral blade stacks 70+ easily on large aoe packs, with 4 stacks Flash of Insight drop Black Hole to get the per mob dmg bonus, get to 5 stacks then nuke away with Wave of Force. With my ias/loh my spectral blade is usually enough to keep me up through almost anything short of stuns/frozens and the synergy of a few talents leads to pretty large stacking +fire bonuses. The overall dmg output solo target isn't boner-inducing, but the toughness/healing are enough to stand on Gholm, take the clouds and the punches to the face, and never go below 90% health. Buffed up I sit just shy of 11mil toughness I believe and usually 23-24k healing.
I'm totally open for suggestions on how I can tweak this. I loathe the cookie cutter specs and glass cannon style characters who can't take a hit, let alone tank 30-40 mobs. Sorry I don't have any videos, but feel free to add me at Xumio#1576 if you want to chat or see it in action.
