Oh nice while I have you here!
My curiosity now mainly is with what other skill gem would have nice synergy on boss fights, aside from viper strike? Or is viper strike vastly superior over any other options for single targets giving the rest of our set up?

I don't really thing that it is superior, and honestly things like double strike or lacerate are just as viable. It boils down to personal preference.

In that case, if I were to switch skill for boss fight, I imagine I could technically switch weapon as well? What other swords would you recommend?

You shouldn't need to switch skills in a boss fight. I use Frenzy to smack the first mob with, hit blood rage, and never use left click again til I change areas.
Also, to whoever above, Lightning Coil isn't worth it, get a belly or kaom's.

Why dont People want to swap weapons? I think heavy strike for single target May really improve our experience in this build especially for heavy bosses

4L = CwDT - Blade Vortex - Inc. Crit Chance - Power Charge on Crit
I have been able to sustain frenzy AND power charges even on boss fights.
I also have a single frenzy gem just for the emergency quick frenzy charge if it doesn't work. I have had no need for gem swapping so far. In fact I have stopped using bloodrage due to the more than sufficient generation.
I like this idea and I'm curious what the rest of your gems look like. Would you mind opening your profile or pasting a PoB link? Thanks

No it's at level 2 so it does not interfere with the other CWDT for immortal call

It's not quite 'done' yet so I see little point in it. The other links I'm using are the CWDT(1) for immortal call set up, unlinked frenzy, warchief, ice golem.
The current project is Enlighten(4) - Arctic Armour - HoA - Hatred. However until that's fully done I had been using ice bite + HoI for a while (extra frenzy generation)
Oh I'm also using lightpoacher with Inc. Crit & Crit Multiplier, have not been stopped in the middle of a pack ever since.
