You will get most death breaths per hour, if you run this build on somewhere between T6 and T8, with best in slot gear, I'd recommend to go max T8 or T9. At least if you want most death breaths per hour as possible. If you run this in a 4-man group you get DB even faster. Cause group will help to deal dmg.
