Description:
The key to this build, as the title suggests, is your elite skill Fevered Dreams. After using Apply Poison, you will find a target in the middle of a group of your enemies. Use the hex Fevered Dreams on this target - the more enemies they are near the better. Fevered Dreams will transfer all conditions applied to that target to all nearby targets. So this build is very condition heavy, because the idea is to use this target to spread conditions rapidly to the entire opposing force.
Start with Pin Down, which willl cause all of the enemies in this area to be Crippled. This prevents them from running away or un-bunching. This first hit will also cause the Poison effect from Apply Poison, so now your enemies are trapped and poisoned.
Follow this up with Screaming Shot to make the entire group Bleed as well. They will now have 2 long-lasting health degen skills, which will drain your enemies pretty quickly.
To shut down the enemy team, use Concussion Shot if your target is a spellcaster and use Throw Dirt on any target. This will Daze and Blind your entire enemy team, preventing them from doing hardly anything in retaliation.
This is a great build to use in a team setup. Get a Warrior or Paragon that can cause Deep Wound, which will drop the entire enemy team's health by 20%. Also, get an Elementalist or Paragon to repeatedly cause Burning on the target. Effective cooperation with this build can drop imposing enemy forces in the blink of an eye.
