This build heavily relies on X-Slash as your damage dealing ability. Fighting trash spamming Flash and Grab works fine, but in cosmic terminals the typical attack rotations will be:

Flash and Grab once

Infernal Brimstone once

X-Slash until spirit is low/gone.

Repeat

I used this build for all 360 levels through red prestige. Melee damage works well, so Excalibur is a viable option when using any sword build. Gungnir is a better overall option for Nightcrawler, and I wanted Excalibur largely for the novelty of having Excalibur and Excalibur's Saber.

I skipped his hero specific unique chest and picked up a Symbiote Infestation for this build. So far the added durability and 5% damage increase has been very nice.

Madame Hydra medallion can be replaced by either Kingpin, or Blob. It is largely a preference based slot and I chose Hydra because my Cosmic Kingpin and Cosmic Blob medallions currently have bad rolls.

As for rings a well rolled cosmic ring could be good, but I am personally farming out another PvP Hogun ring. The potential for 500+ damage paired with ~1000 health is the best option.
