Do I need to CURSE the baracoon as well as CORPSE SKIN or can I JUST Corpse Skin it and be fine? Also would another spell be better to use (something not fire related) to dish out more damage? I was considering taking off spellweaving since I have earthquake anyway and going with a template like this:
120 magery
120 eval
120 spirit speak
120 discord
120 music
120 necro (so I can wither 100% of time no fizzle mainly... Especially on lvl 3 spawn, pre cast invis, run in.. Invis... let everything target bakes... Wither away and kill rat mages in 2 withers).
now I thought i'd use a dark wolf, get out my two bonded bakes and have them tank the baracoon while I discorded the coon and used my bard mastery DoT (Damage over Time) spell "Despair" and "Tribulation" to hit him I was wondering if it'd be nice since you can choose what type of damage it does (energy, fire, cold, ect). I know despair and tribulation slowly drains your mana as well while it's up but I figured since I would be in wraith form I could just leach the mana right back or does anyone know if those spells leach mana back as they periodically damage the baracoon? Now for working the spawn I figured I would just earthquake mainly to kill stuff... If I get in sticky situation (All guard me) and let the bakes do their thing. When baracoon is up have the bake kitsunes TANK the baracoon while he is discod. If the discord damage over time spells work as intended in wraith form where they should return mana to you then I could essentially sit there and spam greater heal to keep the bakes alive without having to switch to offense and spam fireballs to get some more mana to heal pets (make sense?). Does anyone know if this template would be viable or has anyone tried this?
