A couple of sup runes of blood, vigor, etc. are/can be used to boost the effectivness...

Please tell me what you think so that i may tweak the build before submitting to the necro sub-forum.

should have posted it there anyway

but nvm...

i don't think you want demonic flesh in there, although i guess it can help...

AotL builds have these skills in common:
1. AotL (suprising, i know)
2. dark aura
3. dark pact
4. touch of agony
5. blood renewal
6. res sig

the rest are up to you...
what i like using is these:
7. barbed signet (extra damage and self heal, also helps with energy)
8. well of blood/consume corpse/death nova

but your build seems pretty solid.

with a monk to help heal, it can do good damage and has good survivability.

demonic flesh is in there because if you dont happen to have a sup vig rune, then you can keep it up as much as possible in order to have even more health than normal...

Ill try out those spells you suggested

The point is that the higher your health is, the more you will sacrifice (and thus, the more you'll have to heal to keep from dying). What you actually need is healing.

As previously mentioned, consume corpse is great for PvP since it gets you energy as well as health).
In PvE, you'll want well of blood because you'll be standing right over the corpse of the last monster you killed, while getting beaten on by its mates.

I agree. in PVE take well of blood. in PVP i'd go necro/monk so you could take contemplation of purity. it saves your ace. i'd take it for PVE too. CoP dropping aotl will take you back to full health or close.

i tried demonic flesh with my aura build and it just didn't bring enough for me. i'd even take barbed sig(as said before) or even vamp gaze before it. you have blood renewal and consume corpse, i dont think you need demonic flesh
