So this comment is actually ONLY A LITTLE BIT late but hey, who cares. Ive been playing the game again recently and have made one of my favourite scythe setups yet. Basically, i wanted a complete executioner class cause i like the animations that comes with killing them and some of the bonuses you can get for performing them. So i went in and farmed for some possessed scythes and secondary's until i got exactly what i needed. Here is what i eventually created:

Scythes:

Damage: 213 - 234

Lightning: 86

Execution Chance: 62%

Health on Execute: 375

Wrath on Execute: 216

Secondary (Armblades - cause they have a long range attack)

Damage: 247 - 321

Ice: 79

Critical Chance: 52%

Critical Damage: 56%

Strength: 49

Talisman

Execution Chance: 31%

Health on Execute: 542

Wrath on Execute: 273

Arcane: 43

Basically, with my 93% execution chance, i kill 9 out of every 10 enemies (statistically) and im given 972 health in return. Combine that with the armour i farmed to give me a little over 350 strength my attacks bring the monsters health down real fast. It amazes me quite often by how many circles (ps3 version) appear on my screen at once. I quite litteraly go in and do the Scythe, Scyther (pause) Scythe Scythe wide area attack and all the health of my foes just shrinks down to reveal the vulnerable executions beneath.

Ps: Who else agrees with me when i say that the Lich, Wraith and Tormentor executions are pretty fabulous? :D

I mean, lich you smash with their own urn in the back. Wraiths have a dramatic head removal and Tormentors get stabbed down the throat with their own hook. Its amazing to watch in the cinematic executions.

Anyway, Whilst there are many builds out there that are capable of downing monsters in 2-3 strikes with the damage you can deal, it is nice to mix it up and reap the rewards of slowing down your pace a bit.
