8K damage? What's your gear?

I prefer Glimmershreds. I'm at work right now, but I'll post more about this later. I double throw very fast (5 frames or so), have near max'd resists, can handle PIs quite easily and deal about 8k damage per axe. 240 axes per hand goes a long way. I use a might mercenary with reaper's toll for the decrepify.

I checked again today, it's actually 9k. Here's a screenshot:

(my max life is 1415 actually, battle command had just worn off)

Gear:
Taranth

120 Str (+20 Arreats)
150 Vit
+Dex

Might

4x Gimmershred

Arreats Face - ED
Highlords
60IAS Armor (30ResAll/60IAS Armor)
KB/IAS Gloves
Raven Frost
AR/Res/ML
Razortail (Thundergods)
Up'd Goreriders

6 10 max charms
6 resist all charms

Lvl 99
20 Mastery
20 Double Swing
20 Shout
20 BO
14 Double Throw
1 Natural Resist
1 Axe Mastery
1 Grim Ward
1 Leap Attack

Thats my build (goal). I've never really had a problem with having low life, but then again, I'm not PvP. My might merc uses an ethereal reapers toll w/shael, Gloom armor, and Vampire Gaze with an IAS jewel. I've also considered giving my merc delerium for more safety and give him an ethereal crescent moon for static field - I haven't really decided yet. I throw at 5 frames. Note that if you like Atmas, you can IAS the helm and ditch Highlords and still throw at the same speed. I built him like an Amazon, which is why I pumped dex and have low life. The knockback and grim ward keeps monsters in check when things get nasty.
