[edit] Equipment

• Survivor with Vitaes.
• 20/20 Curses set.
• Sets of shields and a -5 energy Spear.

[edit] Usage

• Wail of Doom is very flexible:

• Use it as a sort of Diversion in most cases, but to reduce the spell's effectiveness instead of affecting the recharge.
• Use it on a Warrior during their adrenaline spike to drastically reduce their damage output – same goes for Assassins and Dervishes.
• Use it on a Monk during a spike to reduce their healing to nothing.

• Spam your melee hate on melee. Melee shouldn't be able to do anything. Just keep your hexes up, and if a melee character somehow gets through, use Wail of Doom during their spike to shut them down anyway.
• Use your utility skill as needed.

[edit] Counters

• Anti-Caster.
• Huge hex removal.
• Interrupts.
