Maybe I understood this wrong, but I dont see how Carnevil will ever do more damage than mask of Jeram.
My understanding is that the fetishes either atack or shoot darts, but at roughly the same speed. The only difference is that with Jeram, they do 80-100% more damage with every single attack. Plus with Carnevil they all shoot at your target, which is often overkill as long as you fight white mobs.
So basically you give up 80-100% damage for a little nice animation? Please correct me I would love to use Carnevil for the fun of it, but I dont see how I can make the math work.
It's not the best gear obviously but my dagger is quite nice. Every shot from you and your fetishes deal around 7-10m dmg... You can get to around 150m average dps in a rift...
The gems i used are Gogok, BOP and enforcer. I think you can go for Toxin instead of BOP.
It's fun and it's a nice change of pace from Jade for me so i like it.
The other point I think worth mentioning is that fetishes shoot darts at *your* attack speed, not their own melee attack speed.
This means Carnevil does not rely on TnT as much as Jerram builds. You can still use TnT to increase the fetishes melee speed, but it's certainly not required. Cain's Gloves and Pants make a really good combo for Carnevil.
I think it's easier to gear Carnevil than Jerram builds.. Not to mention finding a good Jerram mask is harder then Carnevil, IMO.

Those Who Do Not Know True Pain Cannot Possibly Understand True Peace...
You say yourself it's a poor man alternative. So Jearam is better damage wise?
