Hey, guys... Heres a really crazy build for all you WDS bored of spamming Rain of Toads and Zombie Bears.
Now it doesn't kill fast as the current cookie cutter builds out there....But i can survive, control and slowly suck the life out of all monsters. Its flat out wicked chaos. Even in Act 4 pub games it quite a insane sight to see...
Probably the most fun i've ever had in D3 with a WD.
The whole build is based of the skill set and Legendarys i have on. If you're bored and enjoy WDS as much as me.. Check it out.
at first I didn't get it. Then I looked at your gear and realized you're this skeleton faced dude walking around summoning skeletons and skeleton hands and ghosts and you have a skeleton shield and a sickle.
This build looks freaking awesome and I'd love to see a vid of you rolling act 1.
Oh and you have a scary ghost and a skeleton bomb.

SKELET-!
Honestly...Theres no other words to describe this build but complete chaos. I can solo all acts and kill any boss with this build. Even made my 1st diablo inferno kill with it and can handle act 4 inferno pub games pretty well. I can tell you, glass cannon builds love me.
Last game i was just in some guy was saying.. "I don't know whats happening".. Its all non stop slowing with monsters getting horrified and getting yanked by the sickle into a swirl of souls. Its so much fun...lol
Thing is my gear isn't that good. So, im sure someone with better gear can make it work even better. Id also lke some feed back on how to make it even more deadly. Let me know.
I suppose "more deadly" will probably mean just damage, but I'll try to throw out a few flavor ideas as well. The thing is I'd like to try to maintain the flavor of what you have going on while making improvements.
First you could get a legendary for your follower that has a chance to summon something on attack.
Genzaniku is a level 12 legendary axe that can summon ghostly fallen champions. Could be pretty sweet (more ghosts), and followers don't do that much damage anyway.
Skycutter is cheap -there's one on the AH right now for ~100K, but it summons an angel, which is kind of the opposite of your sweet reaper / skeleton theme.
Maximus summons a demon, which fits your build better, but the cheapest maximus is about 4mil, which is kinda expensive for pure vanity.
The build doesn't seem to have a great way to dump mana and do a lot of damage. Spirit Barrage / Phantasm is your big spender, but that takes a while to get the full effect. I read that the skeletons also cast horrify (but with no effect), so maybe you are tied to having that on your bar, but with some shuffling you could use-
Manitou fist pumping and throwing out blue shit while you also throw out blue bombs might look kind of sweet and add to a chaotic feel. I didn't really like the idea of acid cloud coming down from above (even though the acid rain / lob blob runes are much stronger), so I went with corpse bomb as a dead body emerging from the ground and exploding seemed a little more in line with your "reaper". If you do use acid rain I think the "on hit" effects proc at a very high rate, which might mean more butcher hooks - not sure as I have no idea how that weapon functions. I noticed you have some life on hit too, so acid rain will do some work there.
As far as gear goes and getting more damage, in general it's just going to mean getting crit modifiers on pieces you don't already have. Namely bracers, amulet, belt (if the price on witching hour ever drops or you strike it rich on a drop). It looks like crit can roll on grin reaper and lidless wall too, it's just pretty rare. Scouring the AH and waiting for that to happen is an option. Maybe a socketed butcher's cleaver?-
Your boots' resistances are baller, so they might be hard to replace, but firewalkers would look pretty cool, as everywhere you walked would just light ablaze.
Your chestpiece is just so-so. I'd save for a good Tal Rashas as this is the only chest piece that I know of that rolls with a damage stat (attack speed) in addition to good int / 3 socket. The price on these will only continue to drop as almost every roll is decent, so if it's out of your range now it probably won't be in a month or two. I think this piece added about 10K damage when I bought mine (but I had quite a bit of crit at the time)
I'm gonna send you a friend request in game if that's cool - I'd like to do some runs and see this in action.
