So, for this game I decided to use Malicious Blades, since I figured that I could get my master trait quickly. I didn't get any good uniques/exotics for this build this run, but everything went smoothly for the most part.

I went for a Conqueror this run because I already had to get an Explorer, so I made sure to gib all the corpses on each special level before I left. I'm starting to like Malicious Blades more and more, since it gives you a really good offense while at the same time giving you plenty of resistances. By the end I was doing 8d8+5d6+30, which was enough to one-shot or two-shot most enemies. I had an easy end-game since I found four invuln globes near each other before the Mortuary, and that lasted me until the Lava Pits.
