Equipment

 * Standard axes
 * armor appropriate for atts and skills (e.g., radiant insignia for shock)
 * Death pact set if applicable

Usage

 * Frenzy when you can, in order to do more pressure.
 * Use Rush to cancel Frenzy in order to catch fleeing targets or avoid taking unnecessary damage
 * Bull's Strike to stop targets from fleeing.
 * Interrupt key skills with Disrupting Chop.
 * Unload adrenaline as often as possible on unprotted targets.

Variants
For the optional slot, or in place of another skill:
 * Shock allows an unconditional kd.
 * Rip enchantment can remove attunements and prots.
 * An energy based run boost, such as Dash or Sprint may be taken.
 * A ranged interrupt, such as Power Spike or Disrupting Dagger.
 * Agonizing Chop can be used as a conditional interrupt with a damage boost.
 * Death Pact Signet instead of resurrection signet, if in need of a hard res.
 * Healing Signet, speccing into tactics, for a stronger skirmish character.
 * Take Axe Rake for an effective snare to follow up Dismember, as well as to cover Deep Wound if it is not removed immediately.
 * A Conjure.
