Usage

This build is relatively simple to use as most of your damage comes from your Harbinger Shroud auto-attack.

Harbinger Shroud

With Signets of Suffering, the passive effect of Signet of Undeath continues to regenerate your lifeforce even while in shroud.
Your auto-attack Tainted Bolts also generates might as long as you are attacking so try to always be attacking if possible.
Dark Barrage - burst cleave damage.
Vital Draw generates life force when striking enemies. If possible try to strike as many foes as possible to maximise lifeforce gains.
The other Shroud skills should be saved mostly for mobility or to quickly finish off weakened foes.

Crowd Control

Vile Blast - AoE Stun
Wail of Doom - Fear with bonus defiance damage
Vital Draw - Long duration PBAoE Float
