I can see how a Cain build with ridiculous spell damage and insanely high level Snake Stance could kill Sam. Would be very difficult/expensive to optimise though!
Hit 150 on this build. Here is a snapshot of my final level 150 setup if anyone was interested in running this build.

Wondering what type of damage thresholds you’ve found with this build to break into Lab 6+ or even for farming Scos. I imagine this build would be able to speed through these areas until higher labs (8+). Currently playing scorpion blade Sin so have some of the gear to transfer over to my barb eventually but feel like the damage scaling would be different between Ww and scorpion blade.
Yeh, this build will speed through lower labs and Scos to some extent. However, the big trees and druids take quite a while, even with really high damage.
I would recommend running 2xBlacktongueorBlacktongue

You'll need 145 pierce and around 500k+ max damage on the in-game tooltip for the content you mentioned.
Higher labs and fast Scos clear you'll need around 750k+ max tooltip damage.
You can get well over 1mil tooltip damage if you use 4% poison spell damage runes or jewels, instead of focusing on life/AR jewels and you haveLorekeeperin you're inventory for Fire Dance. Also make sure you're runningLorekeeper

Massive damage certainly looks cool, but with 150%+ pierce, 70k+ AR, 27k+ life and 750k+ damage this build can do pretty much all content.
Thanks for the reply! Based on the dmg threshold of 500-750k, there seems to be a difference in terms of how dmg is dealt between Psn WW and Scorpion. Thanks again!
