My WD is currently running Pierce the Veil, Sycophants, Midnight Feast, and Fierce Loyalty. It's working out pretty well.
Finally managed to roll a socket on my Mad Monarch's Scepter. If minion kills could count towards the proc it would be perfect. Even without the proc it's a slight up from my previous leg, without the annoying 20% chance to fear dudes.

firebats was annoying because melee range + knockbacks meant you had to respend mana
yeah but I don't really like most of witch doctor spenders and firebats gave me the best combination of damage and utility for the thing I actually wanted to do (make more little fetish monsters)
I'm probably just going to stick with rain of toads/vampire bats unless one of the other spenders is better for minion making

my idea was to just use a really expensive spender + ptv to dump all your mana, then rain of toads won't feel like a waste
I use Acid Cloud + Lob Blob Bomb as my right-click skill. Probably not as good at making fetishes by by god I love just vomiting poison all over everything.

but if I wanted to use ptv then I'd have to decrease my dog count and I just can't do that
I ran a quick rift yesterday for fun and the new stuff all works really well, maybe I'll have to switch it up when I go higher than t1 but so far t2+ hasn't been worth my time

rain of toads + wave of mutilation is the highest damage/proc coefficient for shitting out fetishes

but then no frozen piranhas, and I'm dumb so I don't really like using using cooldown spells that are one shot or short duration
speaking frozen piranhas is chill just way better than slow effects? Like frozen piranhas seems infinitely more useful for slowing and controlling a crowd than grasp of the dead

It's a lot better than grasp of the dead. It also slows attack speed, and isn't affected by torment monster resistances to slow. Get some frostburns and you'll like it even more.

Oh, neat to know why it was feeling so much more effective for CC and the damage bonus (while small) is fun cause it supports my pets a little
I might have some crappy frostburns in the stash still, maybe I'll play with those until kadala coughs up some taskers

Has to be the new frostbourns, should give a 35% chance or so for a full freeze when using frozen piranhas
They keep trying to nerf my wiz biz, but it's like going from being in first by 1000 points to in first by 600 points. Still so much freeze. Can't stop that Ice King build.
Barb was really lucky with drops. Got one of the set great one handers with a socket and a fulminator with a socket. Also got a shard of hate, but no socket there. Also a bunch of two handers, but going dual wielding has definitely been better for me.

dog buff spirit walk super buff
I guess I'll try it out
edit oh wait fierce loyalty gives an extra dog I am back in

and yeah fetishes are way better, just not as good with firebats as much of the time which is too bad I guess

Or should I not even bother anymore from the sound of it
Spirit Barrage - Well of Souls

Fetish Sycophants

Use with Grin Reaper for additional hilarity.
this is a pretty fun build
just hit 70 so im hunting for them jerams/taskers etc
then on gloves for a tasker
(Leoric's mace came from a free T4 cache)
All I need now is a Ring of Royal Grandeur or an Eyes of the Earth and I'll be a hopping natural disaster.
It is basically a fire damage soj for every class you have, after reforge
Or a near perfect str soj for any element you want for barb or crusader
I guess I'll get the socket for....LoH?
also you don't really have to run through if you don't want to, people just shout out when they find a mob and you join
Tomorrow I play D3.
try fire foth with darklight
its pretty good
I tried it with full Akkhan, Maximus, Cindercoat, Reapers, Ess, and it couldn't keep up with laser shotgun.
That said the damage in an AOE clusterfuck like fields of misery with Firestarter up 100% of the time is quite hilarious
also laser shotgun is op so...
who knows why they reverted the nerf
