Malacath Band of Brutality?

Anyone running a build with Malacath Band of Brutality?

Looking for ideas on build.
PvE (PUG dungeons) and PvP (Imperial City).

What class and sets do you use?
I was thinking: DK-WW- Unleash Terror + Pilar of Nirn + Band of Brutality + 1pc of a monster helm
Weapons: 2hand/bow
Thoughts?

    I made a rookie mistake and farmed/got it but it invalidated my crit surge which as a magsorc is crucial so it was useless to me :(

    New experiment:

    DK - WW - 5pc Pilar of Nirn + 4pc Loekesz + 2pc Slimecraw + 1pc Malacath Band of Brutality

    Weapons: 2hand Maul and Bow
    Mundus Stone: The Lord (+ health)
    No food/no drink
    Human form

    simple trial dummy "The Precursor" looks like a robot
    no buffs and no debuffs
    one light attack then watched the proc ticks

    CP points: 14% mighty, Master Arms 22.08%, Thaumaturge 22.08%
    This CP allocation returned the highest damage after several tests
    initial tick 7705 + five more ticks of 7705 (basically six ticks of 7705)

    Some CP configurations had the initial tick higher or lower than the follow on ticks.
    I tried The Lady mundus (+3797 penetration) but it did not raise my proc damage ticks, so I swapped to The Lord (+health)
    my body armor was not all divines
    the maul was "powered" trait
    bow was "decisive" trait


    For those of us who have not mastered the whole weaving/cancelling thing... proc sets are very helpful and fun.
    Love to hear more ideas of maximizing DK proc damage builds

    I hear you.

    As a Nightblade, I have very high crit chance giving +50% damage very often. Malacath would negate that, so, no thanks.

    :D

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.
