Did you use pierce the veil?
There are some tricks you can do to get better score though.
It is better to blow up dogs before even touching boss, so you dont start timer untiil you're fully buffed. And then cast voodoo, remove bow from merc, so first damage tick will be with cob already.
Also if you don't get 5 stacks of GF after 2 sacrifices, restart, cause it is already ruined :d
From what i heard, channeled skills share "snapshot" mechanics, so if you start channeling with 5 stacks of gruesome feast, you gonna keep that bonus, infinitely, untill you stop channeling (even if buff icon expires).


Yea this is what i heard to and suprisingly hasn't been nerf'd like the monk technique was.


However yea i did noticed it would be best off to just duel sac dogs, which i started doing but didn't get any lucky runs so gave up early (been up for over 24 hour now =.=)


I wish i could borrow your skorn to try that out , but you are eu XD

I actually didn't use pierce for this specific setup, which i could with a skorn possibly though.

To use ptrv even with skorn, you need serious bat reduction gear. Now when ppl went full retard with prices.. meh.

Also snapshot isn't really that good in case of this skill. For bosses yeah. But think about it, if you farm elites. You attack elitepack with cob, charge it up, globes pop up, and then you need to stop cob to actually activate gruesome feast bonus.. and if you stop, you lose that 100% damage bonus that is included in cob, if you channel it for 5s. So that kind of sucks. In normal farmingl, you cant just grab 5 globes at the beginning of encounter, they spawn later while you deal damage to elites.

Yea i was also contemplating this.


It is just becoming annoying with the initial cost, but it does have its fun and use.

I will try to beat the time tmr i suppose, but still iso a 1450+ skorn to test with :S

anyone want to give me advice on what to upgrade?
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Koston-1229/hero/32235569

I'm thinking ammy at this point... some quick updates: I'm loving the WD far more than the Wiz and Monk I've played. I pretty much ungeared them to gear up this guy and I'm having fun. I can farm mp5 very smoothly. Maybe one day I can go up to mp10 but I'm not too worried about that right now. I have 70.2k life which I feel may be excessive for mp5, but will be useful later, and I'm doing 101k dps... I want my dps to be increased. I'm thinking I should get a Zunis helm with CC instead of the mana regen, would that be good? And should I switch to a thing of the deep rather than my current? And 1 more question - should I aim for a rare weapon?

tthe ammy/bracers are subs , best thing to do is to craft both of those , you can add 10+ k dps from each craft,you also can take out the vita jool from snake and add a intel one , since you sorted out your ehp/will add dps /res
Now lookin for a a off hand can be hard,if you doent know what to look for things i look for in a TOTD,

220+ ave dng
200+ intel
some vita
8.5 cc
10+ mana regen< bear reduce if you can find, now with the added mana regen that the frog gives , you can now dump the mana regen on the helm , and go for cc on the zuni helm


wep i would use, would be a a middle of the road APS wep , the axe and in serching on the AH i would start the serch like this, with black dmg/min-max dmg[ I use a heavy base dps spear/slower biger crits-but hard to adjust to if using a fast base wep , that is why i sugg a axe ,not to slow not to fast

ave dmg 825+
intel
50+ cd
2.60+ ll < the higher the better since its you only form of ll
soc

if you still need help lmk , maybe some one else and things to add, to your build
