Set items are pretty much set in stone. You can have one item of your choosing belonging to the Wastes set. I use the pants but you can use whatever is best. Strongarm helps with damage but you can switch to Reaper's Wraps for fury upkeep. Best amulet will of course be the Hellfire, with Brawler for damage or Nerves for survivability. Any good immunity amulet will do great too. I'm mostly dying to mass arcane sentries and fire chains and less to frozen or lightning. On Season, you can switch out Pain Enhancer for Bane of the Stricken, allowing you to kill the RG faster. Put rubies in chest and pants, switch to diamonds if you're dying too easy or just want to be safe.

Pretty straightforward, CDR first for WotB and Furious Charge, attack speed last. Movement speed until max, then everything in mainstat. Again, if you're lacking survivability put some points in vit, but rather get good vit on items.

Build Guide

Merciless Assault for fury upkeep, knockback and F+R damageboost. Keep up Ancients and WotB at all times. Whirlwind through packs to keep up health and fury. Always Rend twice for Lamentation bonus. 125% damage from F+R, plus 250% damage from IK set, plus the double damage from Lamentation allows you to have very high damage ticks on Rend. Ancients - Together as One plus Unity bonus ramps up your survivability.
