I'm in the process of building a different take on an Invoker based build, specifically one that utilizes the Hack affix and Heavenly Strength to use two handed weapon, which can (in turn) make Falling Sword, Consecration, Phalanx (Bowman), and Bombardment usable. What I like about the the skills selection is that it allows me to stick with Crush for my primary skill, and everything sort of makes that work with all of the other stuff. [Edit: Consecration will be moving to the thorns run next play session, probably better than the current one]
I've put the build through it's paces, and I still like the Slash/Zeal interaction that I started with o so long ago, but many of the above skills have been replaced with Steed Charge/Endurance (had to keep up with mages and barbs that like to tele and leap, but still greatly prefer Falling Sword/), Iron Skin/Reflective Skin, and Akarat's Champion/Hasteful have replaced Falling Sword, Consecration, and Phalanx.
It's been working rather well, as Torment 4 solo is very doable, and a buddy and I are working our way through the torment levels, as we're at Torment 5 for the moment only because my buddy's a bit to squishy (silly barbs >.> ). While nothing to really write home about, I basically hit 70 while holding my own in Torment 4, then moved to Torment 5 shortly thereafter, so the build does work, even though it's not that optimized just yet.
I'm able to solo Torment IX, and as I just pulled Aquila Cuirass and cube'd it prior to logging last night, I'm expect that I should be able to take Torment X easily. I haven't put that much attention into Greater Rifts (as my focus has been on acquiring the Ring of Royal Grandeur), but I'm expecting to do well there based on what I have seen in the Torment bounties.
Any optimization tips, or other build suggestions, is greatly appreciated =)
