Curse

I thought my idea for a FoC build was unique, but i found some builds around it, and i was discouraged, anyway, im gonna post my ideas of what my build is gonna be and i;d like some constructive criticism, i also believe this may be (other than my previous failed post) the only thread regarding a FoC build on this site, please enjoy:

N/Me

Curses: 12 +1 +3
Blood 10 +1
Soul reaping: Rest +1

Core skills:
Feast of Corruption {E}
Arcane Echo
Suffering or Shadow of Fear
Awaken the Blood
Optional
Optional
Optional
Optional

Optional Skills:
Sympathetic Visage - Possibly (IMO) the most under-rated skill in the game, if everyone is focusing on a tank cast this, and all enemies will hate you
Parasitic Bond - A spammable self heal, and it ensures at least 1 more person you can steal health from
Life Siphon - A al-around good hex for heal, and dmg
Blood Ritual - Party support, i don't need to explain this
Malaise - Spammable, energy-denail of sorts hex
Desecrate Enchantments - A lovely spike dmg dealer, when FoC just isn't doing enough

Variations:
I'd suggest since this build is energy-heavy, to lose the blood line, and invest those points instead to inspiration, and use Power Drain, and Drain Enchantment instead, so it'd look something like this:

Blood: 1
Curses: 12 +3 +1
Inspiration: 11
Soul Reap: 7

Feast of Corruption {E}
Arcane Echo
Suffering or Shadow of Fear or Enfeebling Blood
Awaken the Blood (optional with this build, but it adds nice dmg)
Power Drain
Drain Enchantment
Optional
Optional

And finally, another variation would be to go E/N or N/E and use the Elementalist Ice hexes to do major dmg, considering you'd have the spike from the cold hex, and the spike from FoC, your FoC will do much less dmg with a E/N but you'll have LOADS more energy to throw around, giving this build more of a spammable feel to it.

enfeebling blood doesnt hex it gives a condition. therefore it is not a option for SoF or Suffering.

Enfeeble isn't a hex, it cause weakness which is a condition.
