Ess of Johan as another way to CC enemies, also stacking them at one place will help you doing better damage with your piercing darts and also trigger BotT. Ice Climbers because you dont really need to move through your enemies, but its always better if you cannot be frozen or immobilized. Thing of the Deep because it boosts your damage by increasing range for grabbing health globes and reducing cooldowns with 2 of your passives. AS on rings over CHC because of IAS breakpoint. (if you run solo then one ring can take CHC because enchantress AS bonus give enough for IAS breakpoint).

Diamond (better) in help for CDR in place of missing perma army from Zuni (2).

As little help secondary stats to roll increased range for picking globes and reduced damage from ranged attacks.

Build Guide

Reworked Legacy of Nightmares set provides us best buff between all classes, as we have 23 pets that all got boosted by that set. Also this frees our skill slots from stuff that earlier was there just for purpose of triggering Zuni or Bastion set bonuses, it also provide us great DR in conjuction with Cuirass - which always ON, as we dont spend mana outside of Piranhas.

and just for lulz, dart dps from planner site:

Non-Carnevil DPS: 13,695,167,705 (3 non-shooting fetishes from army)
Total Shooting DPS: 144,934,434,571 (darts+darts dot+shooting fetishes)
sycophants passive dps: 75,323,422,376

numbers with 100% bonus on Nightmare set
