No real changes. Just another viable pet build has been added if you get Dagger of Darts (new legendary ceremonial knife). Pets do die quickly in upper tier greater rifts (30+), so I found that I prefer the darts build to keep my pets away from the action, and combined with the new legendary gem that gives more damage to primary skills with a bonus of healing for 2% HP on hit makes it that much better.
Hi Everyone - Streaming Live tonight. Happy to answer questions from anyone about the witch doctor! I've played PTR extensively doing Seasons and reaching GR37 without bugs! Hop on over and say "Hi!"
Not completely scientific (need about 1000 tests), but rough conclusion is that there isn't much of a different against Ghom (an elite). Damage ticks seem to be roughly the same, but the affix on The Furnace seem to make up for any apparent paper DPS/elite damage losses.
Torment 6 results:
Furnace ~ 40s Kill
SK + UK ~ 55s kill
The downside? Toughness. Without the UK it's much more difficult to survive. If anyone else has tested this, leave some comments below!
I think Area Damage to Increase Attack Speed.

I wondered which might be better, so I ran some tests. You can watch them here:
