In order for this build to work properly you need high +%Damage to Enemies suffering Loss of Control, +%Attack Speed, +%Damage to Elites from Reforge Attributes. Example of this is shown below. Please note that Legendaries there are not the same as proposed in the build. This is just to visualize needed stats.

Another important remark is that you want to have Primary Attacks reduce enemy Attack and Movement Speed just so every Frenzy hit causes enemies to Suffer Loss of Control.
