My thinking when coming up with the build:
1) Minions don’t work. Keep them out of the build for the most part.
2) Lich is a good elite skill. Find traits that make it better (marks)
3) Be useful to a group while still being able to solo.

This build hits those three even though it does make use of the ‘freebie’ minions you get when killing stuff from the Reanimator trait. Instead of being useless, that little guy becomes a time bomb to a poison field who maybe takes a bite or two out of someone’s ankles. It’s a combo field spitting machine because in addition to your poison field, wells all count as combo fields for you and your group. Staff 1 is a decent enough combo finisher, and since Staff 4 is a blast finisher it can splatter groups of mobs.

The build has a ton of toughness and health. More than that, you end up with constant health coming back in. It’s not uncommon at all to finish a fight against multiple mobs fully healed. With Water sigil and your Well of Blood, you’re also helping heal your team. This build actually works better against groups of mobs because while the scaling of healing for siphon isn’t great, if you hit enough targets at once, and almost everything this build has is an AoE attack, you can turn lots of little heals into something noticeable.

i don’t get it…. you use power jewel and condition sigil, you use no minion and use a grandmaster minion trait….

poison field generatin is not big deal since :a) you always can generate a field with wells, b) you will only get lots of jagged horrors agains large amounts of mobs, and any build works on pve….

In my opinion : change those jewel to shamans to specialize in conition damge, about traits you can eithrer use something else on death magic (any thing but a minion trait) or put 20 points soul reaping and get extra duaration on DS and LF on marks, this way you will be pretty tanky (with shaman you’ll have more tough) and you’ll be able to use DS to wait for you rather long CDs.

Ps: i would change that elit as well…. and lich form marks are not affected by the trait you are using…
