Life steal really does help, Zuni boots and chest  will be worth it just for the 130 int bonus. upgrading gems is a good idea, 1 becuase there value will stay relivant into the next patch and you can put them in your new upgrades you find in 1.05  .


Is the 1 hander + offhand set up superior to Skorn build?

I got my Skorn from my friend for free, that's the only reason I'm using it.

depends on your budget, and your play style. if your using gruesome feast style build, then its cheaper to get a ToTD with high dmg, then find 3 Good pieces of armor/gear with gold/globe pickup on it. your gloves are nice in that regards. I paid 20 mil even for a 350dmg ToTD with int and vita.
I think the skorn build is better if your trying to boost your damage up. But im a big fan of lifesteal, as with zombie bears, you still will get hit byt stuff. the lifesteal keeps you alive. and its cheaper to find a good 1 hand weapon with lifesteal, than it is to pick up an int skorn with it.

I'm not really worried about the pick up radius as I heard that health globe build doesn't really work in +mp7 games. That's why I don't really like TotD.

What do you think?

Don't waste your gold on a TotD or manajumas knife lol. Overpriced items and pick up radius on TotD won't be useful in higher MP, making other mojos a smarter option because they can be just as good but way cheaper.

Yeah, I wouldn't spend my gold on those for sure.

Do you recommend any Zuni set combo?

I'm probably going to pick up a crit/lifesteal/open socket 1hander with a nice rare mojo or those serpent mojo crap. Not sure.

Yea dont go with the set knife, huge waste in comparison to what you can get for cheap with same or better stats as a rare.

As for off hand, totd is a good choice if you run solo, but in high parties in mp5+ after 1.05 drops its looking like damage will be the key, unless your running solo and already have enough then stick with the pickup radius.

For zunni set combo, if you like to run fast with no mana problems, helm/chest/ring/boots, if you arnt worried about mana or already have a good amount i would say boots/chest minimum.

Thanks. I'm probably going to go for the 4 set pieces then. Feel like I'm gonna have to spam so many bears in the high mp games.

Should focus on upping my dmg as much as possible while stacking mana regen? I feel like survivability isn't much of an issue for WD.

Hey guys!  I've read through quite a few pages here and you guys have some good conversation going!

I currently have a Wiz and a DH and thought I'd NEVER play Witch Doctor (not really sure why, they just haven't sparked my interest up until now).

I've seen a few of the build-styles on here and on youtube and I think I like the FireBomb + Zombie Bear(or Gargantuan? Need advice) + Zombie Dogs etc... build.
I'm trying to fill in the "etc" part of the previously mentioned build.  Can some of you FireBomb WD's link me to your BNet profile so I can browse the skills/passives you've chosen?

Also, below is a link to my Wiz.  I would consider parting her out to help gear the WD.  What do you guys think of her gear? (will it suffice in Inferno?  Obviously I need a weapon/offhand and new helm)  What are your suggestions?

Thank you all so much in advance!


Looking for advice as per above quote!

Also if anyone has a nice WD for sale, I can spend 100mil or more on a nice setup.
