So I whipped together a rather simple build, since I haven't seen anyone go about this the Occultist way. I'm looking for some feedback - mainly from people who have tried the skills already or just everyone that enjoys being a bit of a PoB warrior.

The main idea is to have good AoE with Reap by stacking up some power charges and focusing on on-hit damage, rather than the DoT. Exsanguinate is used with Unleash to hit 3 DoT stacks with each cast and/or cover more targets with the linked (Hextouch) curses - Vulnerability and Assassin's Mark.

Casting both of these using Life allows us to reserve all of our Mana with Vitality, Pride, Flesh & Stone and Precision. The curses, besides providing the obvious benefits are also effectively a clear-speed boost due to Profane Bloom explosions.

​

Here's a really simple PoB - any ideas for improvement (without absurd gear requirements) are very welcome!
