This build focuses on blasting out tons of 
Blazing Screams and abusing the massive damage from the 
Berú of Horazon's Chains charm set. Blazing Scream does a great job for both single target and pack clear because they hunt down enemies and hit extremely hard. Against bosses these skulls will bounce off walls and come back and hit the boss again and are especially powerful in tight corridors.

Soul Shards
Normally you'd think that you would want to take the 
Vanguard Shard for a Hellfire skill but the 
Legion Shard offers a lot more for us.
1. Vanguard Shard does NOT buff Blazing Scream
2. Legion Shard gives us 25% Cast Speed and 20% CDR whenever we cast any of our 4 Greater Demon skills. Note that the cast speed is only for Lesser Demon skills BUT our Blazing Scream counts thanks to the Skull Splitter Blazing Scream upgrade.
3. We need to cast a Soulshard skill for our charm set Berú of Horazon's Chains and casting Summon Ae'grom is a lot less invasive than 
Summon Abodian which causes you to mount the summon.
4. 
Sacrificial Fragment allows us to easily have 100% uptime on Unstoppable because it works with Command Fallen.
Skull Splitter Blazing Scream is our Main Damage skill, its tags are Core, Demon, Hellfire, Greater Demon, and Lesser Demon. This will release skulls that fly around tracking enemies and releasing small skulls that expire quickly. These little skulls count as minion deaths for all sorts of things.
Demonic Smash Rampage is our Movement skill that does not need Dominance thanks to 
Anathema of the Primes turning it into a core skill that consumes Wrath instead. If you don't have this weapon yet that's fine it will just consume Dominance instead and be much less spammable. Thanks to Lesser Demon Wrath Rampage this skill will also cause Lesser Demon skills to gain +1 Wrath on hit, including our Blazing Scream
Demonic Glare Profane Sentinel helps us apply Vulnerable for 
Aspect of Peril thanks to the Vulnerable Profane Sentinel upgrade. This causes Lesser Demon skills to apply Vulnerable on hit which will stack up Peril extremely fast thanks to how quickly Blazing Scream hit.
Destruction Demon Metamorphosis is our ultimate and pressing this button allows us to easily sit in Demon mode while spamming our damage out.
!!IMPORTANT!!
When this skill is active each cast will increase your damage HOWEVER it will also cause you to burn for 8% of your maximum health over 3 seconds and increasing the burning damage by 5%. Eventually you will just start to die and will need to press this button a 2nd time.
Note that: 
Que helps mitigate this damage a lot.
Fallen Rush Command Fallen is our emergency Wrath generator, ideally will replace this in later versions, but for now these guys can provide some extra Wrath and a Lesser Demon Summon for Sacrificial Fragment to keep us Unstoppable.

This build works even without the aspects or uniques! Just use any damage boosting aspects til you get these ones. Anathema of the Primes is extremely strong and I recommend gambling for Two Handed swords until you get a White rarity one, then use the cube to turn it into a Unique and pray.
Que rune is pretty key to surviving Destruction Demon Metamorphosis.
Aspect of Scorching Heat turns our Fire Resist into damage (and may reduce the self damage we do) so it's good to socket for
Aggressive Aspect stacks up as we move but then hitting Close enemies refreshes it so you don't have to move much versus bosses
Aspect of Fiendish Oppression will SPAM STUNS on nearby enemies as you attack since Blazing Scream activates it.
AMULET
You can add a 2nd random legendary affix to an amulet using the cube and Kullean Tuning Prism not that this aspect is a random one your class can use. Make sure to finish crafting your amulet 100% before taking this step as currently using the Codex of Power to reimp
Talismans
Default
Mephisto X
Talisman Priority
+7
At first any charm will do. Once you start acquiring duplicates you can roll your worst ones with the cube. This will make a new ___ of Horazon's Chains charm of a random type with random stats, note that you CAN get GA's this way.
Getting a Seal with +1 Charm Slot opens up the ability to add a Unique charm.
Banished Lord's Talisman - easy uptime of 8 stacks of Overpower means 8 x 15% = x120% damage AND we also get another x96% on crits! Combined x331% when you get to crit cap later on.
Seed of Horazon - lots of damage while our Wrath is high, potentially opening a Wrath stacking option for the build late game.
Godslayer Crown - increases damage and vacuums enemies, decent option.
Mother's Embrace - does not boost damage but helps with keeping Wrath up.

How it Plays
Leap around with Demonic Smash Rampage to cover ground and turn into Demon Mode.
Spam your Soulshard skill off cooldown to keep Berú of Horazon's Chains 5 piece combo going.
Use Demonic Glare Profane Sentinel to apply Vulnerable with your Blazing Scream
Keep 1-3 Fallen Rush Command Fallen active for Unstoppable and extra Wrath.
Spam Blazing Scream for lots of damage.
Press Metamorphosis only when you really want to spam damage but be careful to drop form when you start taking too much damage.
How it Works
Note both Demonic Smash Rampage and Demonic Glare Profane Sentinel will also put you in Demon Mode temporarily. This is a good way to get all the damage buffs from the mode without fully committing to Destruction Demon Metamorphosis.
