[skill]Spiteful Spirit[/skill][skill]Arcane Echo[/skill][skill]Desecrate Enchantments[/skill] and then we have 5 skills to play with.
ofcourse you should take a [skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill].
Maybe spec something into blood and bring some support [skill]Blood Ritual[/skill].
[skill]Reckless Haste[/skill] might be good.
Well, there you already got 6, play around a bit with other skills to find something you like.

Spec soul reaping high enough for energy management, maybe take glyph of lesser energy, and for feast of corruption, take [skill]Suffering[/skill] for AoE hexage and [skill]Parasitic Bond[/skill] for a cheap spammable hex and it even heals for quite a bit. And I'm not really into FoC build, but take some cheap spammable hexes.

Energy tap is useless. For non-elite energy management (on a N/Me anyway) Power Drain is ftw.

FoC is an extremely weak skill. If you insist on using it, Arcane Echo is a must. Why even take FoC when you can have:
[skill]Discord[/skill]

Running only Curses and Soul Reap (with whatever's left over in Death for Soul Feast, if desired):

[skill]Suffering[/skill][skill]Faintheartedness[/skill][skill]Enfeeble[/skill][skill]Wither[/skill] or [skill]Reaper's Mark[/skill] or [skill]Icy Veins[/skill][skill]Signet of Lost Souls[/skill][skill]Soul Feast[/skill][skill]Resurrect[/skill] or related skill

[skill]Wail of Doom[/skill] is a bit of nasty fun.

Possible substitutions (non-Nightfall skills): [skill]Weaken Armor[/skill][skill]Malaise[/skill][skill]Reckless Haste[/skill]with[skill]Price of Failure[/skill][skill]Rigor Mortis[/skill](good for Factions, I find)[skill]Enfeebling Blood[/skill] instead of Enfeeble for more degen goodness

[skill]Well of Silence[/skill] works very well in Nightfall.

You can trade out Soul Feast for Antidote Signet (ranger secondary) if you're in an area with a lot of Blinding and Poisoning.

Energy is less of a problem with Signet of Lost Souls, but if you don't have NF, you really shouldn't have much trouble, especially if you're using a max offhand and a +5^50 egy weapon. Of course, a good team helps immensely .

Trust me, this is a very useful little set-up (although, of course, it probably can be improved upon).
