As a Witch Doctor that was struggling in Act III Nightmare, this build has been a tremendous help. I had read enough on the forums that I thought Vision Quest was the way to go. But running around with all of my abilities on cooldown so I could spam Acid Cloud meant that I was gimped whenever I bumped into a champion pack. I was giving no thought to Soul Harvest and Spirit Walk, and I'd discounted Rain of Toads as a weaker version of Acid Cloud with a smaller area of effect. But what Toads lacks in up-front damage it more than makes up, with a relentless proc and superior mana effectiveness.
One of my favorite things about this build is how the runes can be tailored to suit your equipment. If you have tons of life regen, then your runes can push toward damage or mana regen. The same goes if you have a lot of mana regeneration equipment.
I've been swapping between 1-handers and 2-handers, but I'm noticing that ceremonial knives at level 50 are starting to include bonuses to specific witch doctor abilities, such as Plague of Toads. Very handy!
