Build Guide

This build is made specifically for farming Torments with as little effort as possible. As a bonus, you also get to watch things blow up all over the screen. You want cooldown reduction every where you can get it. After that, focus on survivability and Corpse Lance damage.

The build focuses on killing everything on the screen with the free Corpse Lances that fire when you consume a corpse (from the Pestilence set bonus). These Corpse Lances will be empowered from several sources (e.g. Corpsewhisper Pauldrons) but mostly from the poison buff of Nayr's Black Death (bonus damage per poison skill used). Use Land of the Dead when you see an elite pack (poison skill #1), immediately followed up by a Bone Spear (poison skill #2), and then spam Devour which will automatically fire your free Corpse Lance (poison skill #3). Be sure to cover all enemies with Decrepify, as well. When Land of the Dead is on cooldown, cover all enemies with Decrepify to get the CDR from its Borrowed Time rune, and shoot enemies with your Bone Spear for the CDR from Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac. Land of the Dead should be available every 20 seconds max.
