Attributes: 15 Death Magic, 10 Soul Reaping, 10 Beast Mastery (maybe).

Skills: Tainted Flesh {E}, Death Nova, Putrid Flesh, Animate Bone Minions, Toxicity, Resurrection Signet. Haven't quite pinned down those last two skills. Edge of Extinction? A well? Putrid Explosion? I don't know. You tell me. Tainted Flesh might not be necessary in some places, maybe exchange it for Jagged Bones?

Not great, and I have no idea where you'd use this, but at least blowing minions up is fun. Spreads 10 health degeneration (4 from disease, 4 from poison, 2 from Toxicity) pretty well and the explosive damage from Death Nova is there. Assuming the degeneration sticks for the whole fifteen seconds (it won't), each minion will deal 400 damage before armor between the conditions and explosion. Sort of. The first one will, the rest do their 100 points of Nova and reapply conditions.

A target next/last minion hotkey would be nice.

Wai, wai?? Why don't you just only use Death Nova along with Tainted.. or ditch Tainted and take Jagged Bones? That's really the best elite for minion bombers, but disease never stacks with itself, and it's not that great of a condition to begin with. If you're going to put the points in BM for Toxicity, at least take something else fun, like Predatory Season. Not everyone will like it, but it sure is fun. =D

If you're not going to be fighting enemies that will spread disease to your own group you can drop Tainted.

Tainted Flesh is there to protect the party in case the winds start blowing the wrong way, which is especially likely in parts of Elona.
