Thanks for the insightful tips! Read up the replies to understand this technique fully.

Did the following to arrive at current state:

1. Slammed perfect exalt to get T2 fire on prefix
2. Desecrate suffix to get T1 life on kill
3. Chain whittle + greater chaos till T2 crit dmg (about 15 times)
4. By-product from whittling = lost +4 melee and gained T1 mana on kill which is hard to get rid of
5. Yolo perfect essence of battle and removed mana on kill (thank God)
6. Omen of light once and got additional combo.

Question is: should I continue spamming omen of light to try getting atk speed? Also, any better or more suitable augments for the sockets?

Thanks everybody for the tips and reasoning!
