There are definitely points for further optimization, but I've been taking this into auric maelstrom pubs and having reasonable success - I find infested helps the shovel clear hordes better and maniac isn't necessary for maniac breakpoints with the shovel special active. I've also found take a swing as a good blessing in place of scrusher but i figured i'd give scrusher some more play and see how it performs now that I've finally been able to get it on the shovel. Gameplay loop is pretty variable - keep an eye on the big picture and whether you need to help on horde clear, or elite/specialist deletion. Make sure you're keeping VoC up - with the 6 sec CDR talent you're gonna have it back in no time. Competitive urge is definitely a free talent point - you could stick that point somewhere else but it's a pretty meaty bonus and I find it's proc'd very often on maelstroms.
