Crescent Moon has two main uses:

It is the best-in-slot weapon for mid-to-high budget lightning sorceresses. This is due to the mechanics behind monster immunities. When a monster is immune to lightning (>99% Lightning Resistance), sorceresses rely on Infinity to break that immunity. However, when breaking immunities, Conviction aura only functions at 20% effectiveness. This means that Infinity will only reduce the monster’s resistances by 17 instead of the usual 85.

A monster with 100% Lightning Resistance (almost all relevant immunes) will only take 17% regular damage. As a result, the PvM efficiency of a lightning sorceress is essentially bottlenecked by immune monsters. Once an immunity is broken however, -% Enemy Lightning Resistance from gear will apply with 100% effectiveness. Crescent Moon alone adds another 35% lightning damage taken which effectively triples your damage output (this is the same reason that Griffon’s Eye is best-in-slot).
Crescent Moon is also used as a budget option for melee characters:

Dual-wielding Barbarians can pair Crescent Moon with a high-damage weapon. The 7% Chance to Cast Static Field gives them some AOE potential. Unfortunately, weapon procs do not work with whirlwind.

Holy Shock Zeal Paladins can also take advantage of the -35% Enemy Lightning Resistance and Static Field on Crescent Moon.

LISENNYT NOPEUSNOPEUKSET

Zeal / Phase Blade
5/5/5/5/10 Frames = 13 IAS
5/5/5/5/9 Frames = 24 IAS
5/5/5/5/8 Frames = 54 IAS
4/4/4/4/8 Frames = 72 IAS

A low budget build can reach the final IAS breakpoint using a pair of 20 IAS gloves and Treachery.
