i saw some streamers do it. use locust swarm with pestilence rune, use it on large packs of mobs. then run away to the next pack and locust swarm it as well. if needed, recast it on the first pack.
and so on.... until you have attracted a large enough amount of mobs. then, go to a wall and line-bear the 50-100+ monsters within seconds. firebats also works if there are no mobs among them that interrupt it.
the trick about locust swarm is that it spreads to all mobs if those are standing close enough to each other and there are no ranged mobs among them, which is the case for example in the weeping hollows or the fields.

Basically what locust swarm-pestilence does, is attract all the enemies that take damage.
Since it spreads from 1 target throughout a entire group, the change in monster density has only made it easier for it to spread.
So for instance in lets say weeping hallow or other similar open areas, it allows for big packs of mobs to attract to you, thus allowing you to hold fire bats down and not move to recast.
Thanks guys. Thats exactly I was looking for. Awesome. Im 1 bar away from 100 on my monk.
After that, its all my WD.

ill try locust swarm and report back tomorrow for more advice.
