• Rune of Necromancer

• Relic of the Nightmare for less overall damage but a stronger combo in teamfights.

Usage

Elite specialization basics

• Death Shroud is replaced by the Sand Shade mechanic. Effects that trigger on entering, while in, or while leaving shroud can be used with the new Shroud 5 skill: Desert Shroud.

General

• Thanks to Terror, your Fear effects deal damage. Insidious Disruption inflicts Torment to any foes you disable.

• Abrasive Grit provides Might and cleanses a condition for any ally (yourself included) that you grant barrier to via any Scourge skills.

• Always open with Manifest Sand Shade, even if you need to place it before combat, to benefit from Sand Sage and Blood as Sand from the beginning of combat. Make sure there is always at least 1 shade active.

• Try to proc Relic of Akeem off cooldown. This should be relatively easy to do, as you have many ways to disable opponents and many sources of Torment.

• Use Garish Pillar carefully but as often as possible. As a source of Fear it will CC and deal damage.

• Use Locust Swarm to rotate between points.

• Use Wail of Doom or Reaper's Mark to interrupt enemies that are blocking.

• Trail of Anguish can be used to safestomp enemies (thanks to the Stability) if you know you won't need it for combat soon.
