For Equipment, I use the Razorstone and a -5(20%) +30 shield. There's no particular place this build is effective, that I could tell, just that it's a generic/all-around kinda build.
The idea is to be able to build up an amount of conditions quickly on a target, this should apply Deep Wound, Cripple, then you're open to knockdown for interrupt, then apply poison and knockdown again, then re-supply your energy and health with ViM.
EDIT: Tried this out a little, made some modifications. This seems to work pretty decent as a solo build with Dash/Malice/Dolyak, but I think would have a much better effect in a team build with the Res Sig.
