The sacrifice spammer is good as support / uber kills.
For anything else, it's not even half as fast as Bears.

I've tried both with pretty gg gear.

Could be different if you can boost your dps by being extremely rich and reaching 0cd ZD without homunculus and use a fat mojo instead. because homunculus sux balls.

not realy!

take 2x random offhand+mainhand for example:
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/manajumas-carving-knife
lets say 1044weapon dps/ 1.4aps = 746weapon damage
take offhand:
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/zunimassas-string-of-skulls
130-484 maximum = +307added to weapon damage

take homunocles
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/homunculus
39-114 = 77avg

totals:
((746+307)/(746+77)-1)*100%= 28%more dps if perfere a perfect dps mojo over a homunculus
its not that big of a oncrean dps lost

even on a bear spammer, homunocules can privide infinite mana at any aps(pride sacrafice), and a 24/7 +50% health globe intelect bonus
you could spam 500+bears in town whitin 1min and never get ohm if need to!

It's true that this build is slower than zombie bears.

and because of homunculus + soj or skull graps u lose lot of dps.

but still its very fun build and the damage u do is insane even ur dps is low.

worth a try.

- Gears are very expensive (cool down reduce items)- Hard to kill ranged elite/monsters with high movement speed
- Really hard to pull up ur dps
- Low Dps Appearences compare to other builds
- Your fingers get tired easily

Yes it is expensive :(

ur attack speed affects how fast u sacrifice ur dogs

especially important if u wanna stay alive

on mp8-10 when ur in a crowd of enemies u need healing at least 4 times a second, so u have to kill all ur dogs in a second

the sacrifice ability kills ur dogs one at a time

some guy's experiment:
