I guess this is what Beta testers do... So bored out of their minds that they devise absurder ways to defeat the first boss of the tutorial...
This is kinda what a lot of people did with diablo2 in general.
All my gaming group did was make obscure builds. We had a thorns-druid who managed to rack up enough thorns-damage to one hit most minions in hell difficulty just by standing there. We had an unarmed-barb who got his minimum damage so high he just ran around punching things to death.
My biggest claim was the shockwave druid who could put hell diablo in animation-stun lock as long as he had enough mana to spam shockwave endlessly.
Sadly its difficult to make fringe builds in the beta since we have so few affixes to work with and no skill runes :/

Right now electrocute is the most efficient and graphically satisfying. You can seriously just use that and melt everything in sight, plus the ragdoll takes over pretty often and sends glowing body parts arcing across the screen.
The swords are fun, but it's hard to tell if a melee-build would be viable without key support powers like slow time and teleport.
