I have worked out an aoe farming build which I currently use mainly in a2+a3 inferno which is centered around Acid Cloud and having a Gargantuan while boosting your damage to insane amounts with Grousome Feast and Soul Siphon.
The Zombie Dog skill is the one slot in dispute. I played with Horrify, Hex and Zombie Wall. I require input for an allround utility spell that fits in nicely with the rest of this build.
Suggestions of any kind are welcome. Which utility spells do you use in your everyday life when using aoe builds?
Best regards,

The current build looks something like this: http://eu.battle.net...UdYT!aYd!aZcZca (the Handler passive is only for the dogs, normally I'd use blood ritual).

I would just stick with the dogs (you are using 2 passives that benefit them after all), I find them useful for keeping things off you and they tend to stay alive forever now.
I never noticed much diffrence when the dogs have leech though, I prefer life link, final gift (better in groups and against reflect) or rabid with bad medicine.
Does the rabid bite stack on a single target from all 3(4) dogs? Or is burning better then even for single target?
Your damage is pretty high. If you haven't already tried out Spirit Barrage / Manitou I'd suggest giving it a whirl.
In a strange way the skill can act as a bodyguard because the duration is so long, you throw it up before a fight, and anything that makes it's way through all your AOE will be pretty low and just get smashed by Manitou.
It's also great if the elite is being tanked by your garg and you can stand semi-close, as he will just pump out constant damage in addition to your firebombs, clouds.
Bad medicine is kinda pointless in solo play with pets, as it applies before the damage cap. I say keep the Hounds, but swap to either Burning or Plague (plague will be better single-target, they deal literally twice as much damage as non-rune or Leeching).

that's what I'm using, blood ritual gives my pets 400+lps alone, which is way more sustain for your pets than zombie handler
If you are using it only to get the lps then you are essentially using two slots to get 400lps on your pets. Not very effective.
it also gives you lps and makes you spells cheaper. The build I use has no primary, so I save a ton of mana with blood ritual.
