Vulpine Mask has forced Slash procs on every combo anyway, so base weapon damage type is a non-issue. Could be Impact for all I care.

High base status means that Weeping Wounds + Drifting Contact build is viable, so might as well mod if for toxin or viral for endurance survival runs - you'll be causing elemental procs on top of Slash with almost every hit.

Problem is, with such a poor crit chance it's going to be significantly inferior to Destreza in terms of raw DPS - you won't be seeing crit (much less red crit) slash procs anytime soon, even with Blood Rush, so you're basically trading crit slash procs (damage) of Destreza for  more (and varied) status procs. Going viral *may* compensate for loss of crit, but this remains to be seen.

Oh, and (unless page stance page is wrong) stance polarity that does not match Vulpine Mask means you'll need another Forma, which is also a downside.
