WORMWOOD (missing form builder) in cube for weapon power. casts locust swarm for us to keep Aquila's active. mask of jeram for 100% pet damage. RoE for 300% damage on mobs affected by both haunt and locust swarm. I like esoteric for more survival but enforcer is an alternative for more pet dps.

Equipping Quetz and cubing Mask is usually the best unless you have really well rolled Mask.

Any ancient shoulders will do, as long as the have gargs and AD.

Hellfire 5th passive I currently have is sycophants since I don't have an ancient Transcendance belt. can be anything you like.

Aquila for damage reduction.

Lakumba's for damage reduction.

Tasker for pet damage boost.

ears belt for melee reduction, trans for more sycophants, witching for max dps.

waders for sacrifice and cold boost.

illusory boots are nice since this build doesn't have spirit walk.

LoN rings of course.

harvester is nice for more damage reduction and damage output. flexible though, whatever you have ancient with high dps will do fine.

homunculus summons zombie dogs and increases sacrifice damage. you can reroll another stat to boost sacrifice damage further.

Build Guide

I'm really having fun with this build at the moment. Feels good at T12 but massive ranged damage and explosions are a problem. Running Templar for heals. stand in his oculus ring buffs.

basically run into packs and spam haunt and sacrifice. sacrifice provoke the pack stacks 5 times for 100% increased damage (tooltip is misleading). horrify and soul harvest on cooldown for damage reduction.

I do not have an ancient sacred harvester yet (high dps genzaniku instead) but I'm sure harvester will do much better.

enjoy! feel free to roast me in the comments if you want
