Since WD is the only one now without a thread, I figured that there is no time like the present!! I haven't actually finished the game yet, but based on my game play so far (level 31) I am really enjoying the build I have at the moment. At the moment I am not having any troubles with most things except when I get lag or get caught off guard by baneling mobs or a mini boss right after a cut scene that I am not expecting. Boss fights seem really easy - the gargantuan tanks and the haunt dots while you spam away with the poison darts. If the boss drops any thing on the floor you need to avoid and you have painted yourself into a corner you can just use spirit walk and escape to a safer zone.
Left Mouse: Poison Dart with Splinters (I spam this a lot and I love the speed of splinters. I have tried the mana version but it is just too slow for me). Really nice 1 target damage that is very fast.
Right Mouse: Acid Cloud with Acid rain (I use this spell tons, and usually in conjunction with grasp of the dead. The increased radius is great, but when I get high enough I will definately try out the other runes. I like that you can spam it over and over and you can select where you want the aoe to land - usually over the mobs I trapped)
1: Grasp of the Dead (I love this. You see a wave coming at you and plonk this in between you and the mobs. With this and the gargantuan, the mobs are mostly grouped up so that you can spam you aoe and throw a few dots their way if needed). I have the increased damage rune on it atm, but will experiment more when I get higher and have access to more options.
2: Gargantuan (This dude is so good. He hardly ever dies and tanks the bosses and mobs very very well. I can heal him with the rune that goes on haunt, which is really great). And if for some odd reason he actually does die, you can cast him against instantly. I have the restless giant rune on him atm, but I am not high enough to have tried the others.
3: Spirit Walk (I like this spell, but tbh I hardly ever use it because I am usually not worried about dying. I have used it though, so it does come in handy. I am thinking that when I am higher and can use it for healing or mana regen or something, I might keep it as a utility spell that can become an emergency spell if needed)
4: Haunt (this spell is brilliant. I love having a dot so that if I need to move around it just keeping ticking. Also it is pretty much key for life regain for me and the gargantuan because of the consuming spirit rune).
If anyone else wants to share their builds, esp if you are at higher levels, that would be awesome. Also, I have played solo 99% of the time, so this build is def good for this kind of play first time through. I hope it stays good later on in the game. I have not gone to the AH for gear (but I did purchase a few decent gems for the slots some of my drops had), so I am only using drops which seem decent but I am sure I could do a lot better when I start feeling under powered (I assume this will happen after I get into NM).
