I`m little bored of Malice necro. I want to start over with melee.

Which one is viable to do almost 100 % of endgame without farming top end gear ? I play SP. 2h or 1h ?
On ladder i see almost everyone play totem and i can`t really find some good build and check progress.
Thanks for answers :)

Is this guide still viable or is there a new one somewhere? :)

use 2h scythe guide instead. 2h is pretty much always better until you are lv 140+

1h is phys is unviable
2h phys is viable and cheap. you can do 2h dex (scythe) or 2h necro scythes (str)
2h phys (timefather) is good but somewhat expensive. can scale crazy high dps with umo projects.
1h taming sari rw is good but very expensive and very specific because you need to find items that scale physical damage + enemy fire pierce
