So how much worse is it for bossing than TR?

Also why would you go for Swift Killer instead of Escape Artist.
CA doens't really scale with AS/Frenzies and the added survavibility might be useful (+ ensures that Ghost dance is truely up and running)

I've been playing around with this build for a while now. I started off with Farrul's fur but have since moved on. I really like using Swift Killer in combination with Disciple of the Unyielding/Slaughter gained from my Thread of Hope. I'm pretty much always at max Frenzy, Power, and Endurance charges.

Frenzy charges each give 13% damage increase, endurance gives 8% per charge, and power charges give 5% increased damage each. Overall I'm getting well over 100% increased damage during mapping. It's pretty huge, and its less about the Attack Speed/Crit chance that the charges give, and more about the increased damage from passives/ascendancy points.

Basically, with Swift Killer you're trading out some survivability (which is definitely valuable) for a massive damage boost (I gain 600k Caustic Arrow dps). Ultimately I think it comes down to personal preference/content you like to run. That's my take on it.
