Some node explanations:
Child of Fury: Furious Appetite - Helps with rage generation combined with Manic Slaughter + Appetite for Bloodshed. Appetite for Bloodshed is a really REALLY important node for rage generation clearing trash mobs in expeditions.
Dire Juncture: One of the most underrated defensive nodes in the entire tree. You offset 60% of hit damage until 1 second later which can be heavily mitigated by lifesteal regen.
Which time cannot heal: You can apply stasis 100% EITHER by having aether damage or by using the stasis rune (Arresting Claw) on Tracker's Reach skill - which I do.
Backline Raider (attack speed node): Purely quality of life, helps me clear more quickly.
Disposable nodes:
Feast for the crows: If you get lifesteal on weapon this can go.
The Wild Card: 60% flat score isn't huge late game.
The heat of battle: If you get sufficient rage generation/preservation this can go.
Backline Raider: You don't need the attack speed it's just personal preference.
Suggested replacements:
Clandestine Execution: For 25% increase damage vs bosses.
Branded Burst: More damage reduction
Salvatory Anchor: More defensive options
Kingless Aegis: more +block% on 2h weapons if you don't have any weapon block already
Stats:
70% Wisdom
30% Ferocity
We mix our damage between a bit of on-hit attack damage and stacking ailments from bleeding edge.
Itemisation:
We get ALL of our toughness from our gear, mainly from Gloves, Spaulders, Chest, Legs, Helm so this is a priority stat!
Otherwise, we are looking for +% reduction willpower to rage and +% Material damage.
Anything like Ailment% and Critical strike damage/chance are nice bonuses.
Stuff like Attack speed score is quality of life for clear speed.
Toughness then Ferocity then Willpower on gear.
2H Weapon:
Primary: High Damage (preferably material so Phys/Toxic/Rend), + Offensive 1 Sockets, %lifesteal
Secondary: +ele of choice, %material ailment chance, critical related stats
Boots:
Personal Primary: Movespeed, Material Damage, Toughness/Health/Res

Secondary: Whatever is going, crit, ailments etc.
Belt/Amulet/Rings:
