Build Description

This build contains one or more skills that have been changed because of skill updates. This may cause an increase or decrease in the build's performance, so check the skill descriptions carefully. If this is your build, editing it will remove this message.

This build works best with more physical attackers on your team, to get the most use out of Barbs. It's very satisfying to see lots of 16s pop up over your target.

You don't really need both Faintheartedness and Shadow of Fear, but its nice to have both incase you don't hit all of your enemies with Shadow of Fear. Icy Veins could easily be replaced by Signet of Suffering in areas where there are fewer guys that take longer to kill, while IV is better suited to lots of weaker targets.

Use Well of Darkness wisely, since it has a 20s recharge. If necessary, flag your heroes to stand in the middle of it.
