Jade Harvester Witch Doctor is an exciting build to play. One that requires you to constantly move and causes a satisfying explosion of damage! When making this build really prioritize cooldown on your gear. You want to be soul harvesting as much as possible and able to move as much as possible. Jade's is also an area damage build, so try to get as much as possible. You are very squishy so dance around the outside of packs grouping with Piranhas. Make sure all enemies are affected by locust and haunt. Then use spirit walk to charge in and cast soul harvest then dash back out and reset. Affixes can be tough with this build. Arcane and Jug are very tough. You can maneuver around the rest. Remember haunt does some serious damage in this build so if you cant get close just keep haunting.

Enjoy.
