Have you tried out Graps of the dead with the extra slow instead of reduced cooldown? I find that more effective.

This is me at the moment with a shit weapon. Will hit 55-60K with a upgrade.

How fun is the witch doctor? Currently I only have a monk and its difficult for me to get past a2 inferno (not too rich)


I have a level 54 WD just havnt geared him/played him much at all yet. Is he worth gearing up? I heard hes not that fun to play because its mostly just CC and running around in all acts.

Love the WD class. Have several friends who ditched the class but I'm sticking with it.

what do you like most about it?

Active Skills:

Darts (Splinter)
Zombie Charger (Zombie Bears)
Spirit walk (Jaunt)
BBV Rain Dance
Fetish army Legion of daggers
Soul harvest Siphon

Passiveskills:
Spirit Vessel
Pierce the Veil
Vision Quest

1577 Int
663 Vit

24k Health
39k Damage
89% mf

600k gold.

Having a lot of trouble moving forward from this point. I don't have the gold or gear to farm Siegebreaker, but everything else has been nerfed to hell and I don't know what would be the most efficient way to go about getting some gear/gold. More mf? Specific farming route?

This is my current build.

Sometimes changing the gargantuan to big stinker but nevertheless, sometimes goes down pretty fast, sometimes distracts pretty well.
Also been thinking of switching spirit walk to jaunt, healing yourney doesnt give that much back.
Mass confusion works great but pretty long cd, without hysteria it seems bit bad.

Anyway, this has worked pretty well for me so far, just got into inferno act 1.
20k dps
2.3k armor
264-340 res
AS 2.49
19k life

Anything I can change in my skill build to improve my play? can't really afford any gear for a while. Most troubling ones are mortars and fast ones. I got plenty of escapes but they still seem to overwhelming. Specially fast, mortar illusionists ect.

I am live, inferno a4 wd well geared balanced
might farm a little or progress act4 achievements.


will show my builds/passives and items (templar too)

a decent strategy thats done well for me so far is,
spirit walk up to a mob,
soul harvest,
grasp,
fetish army,
spam zombie bears for 2 seconds and run,
if ur quick enough u can get in and out b4 they have the chance to touch you, and doing this puts 4 spells on cd so vision quest becomes a great passive skill, which alows you to spam zombie bears and recover mana extreamly fast.
go in spam and run. when ur grasp-spirit walk-soul harvest is back up go in again.

in inferno?
it's been weird but they've been hitting and killing me during my spirit walk...
