You may want to try using OoV instead of OoP/Cultist's Fervor. Your build isn't really EN intensive (most skills have long cooldown also), your heroes would benefit from the life steal and it would free up a slot for another skill.

That's an idea! the only problem I have with OoV is that it only works on party members that don't have other necro enchantments, making it unusable with Dark Fury

@xmfd: I really like the build. I love these kinds of builds, and yours seems well constructed. I'm actually about to go check it out with my warrior. A couple quick questions: why Heal as One over Rampage as One? With Expertise, a zealous spear and adrenal skills, RaO shouldn't be too hard to maintain. Also, on the necro, are you microing Well of Ruin? Otherwise it doesn't seem as reliable as Weaken Armor.
About bringing Infuriating Heat somewhere - according to the unofficial wiki, IH is bugged and won't work in conjunction with Dark Fury. So it's either DF or IH, and DF is generally better. Of course if you wanted to use OoV then IH becomes plausible.

glad you like it

I thought about using RaO instead for a while too, I imagine the bar would be something like

Blazing spear
Wild throw
"GftE!"
Scavenger strike
(Brutal Strike or some other pet attack?)
RaO
"Fall Back!"
Comfort Animal

It would work fine, but the HaO build has the same 33% ias (only constant on the pet but whatever), has a damage boost for the pet, blocking and healing. The RaO just looks nicer though haha

I try to micro well of ruin after they put orders up and as soon as there's a fresh corpse, but honestly weaken armor would probably benefit more. As someone said earlier in this thread, all of the heros are hitting a single target, so I guess generally only 1 target is getting the cracked armor at a time. you make a good point lol

also I'm gunna play around with the IH + OoV idea, thanks for the Dark Fury heads up

AI only uses HaO as a pet heal.

Was OoP the same?

No. OotV had the 'no other Necro enchants' clause added to prevent it being used simultaneously with OoP. If I recall correctly, this was back in the IWAY days.

Ok, makes sense then. For some reason, I thought both were changed that way awhile back.
