The nado is mostly for the damage debuff which will still apply to elites and bosses. You need the debuff to amplify the dots. You could use wave of mutilation but nado works better because the pull gathers mobs and some elites into a ball which will make harvesting and dots spread a lot easier. With bosses it's going to be slow no matter what you replace nado with.

I've played both pets and jade, and i am still enjoying both builds. Coming from barb, WD has been a breath of fresh air for me. The diversity in play style is immense - pet doc plays like a summoner, where as jade plays like a nuker. And then you have the likes of carnevil, buff station, and controller builds.

I don't necessarily think one is better than the other. Both builds have its merits and weaknesses. I personally feel the contrasting nature of both builds is what makes the WD class rich in depth and fun. Why choose one over the other ? My barb would kill for such luxury. I switch builds depending on my mood and if and when the group requires me to change my build. Nothing worse than running with 2 pet docs resulting to a massive pet traffic and your big hot dog staying idle at your side.

Try wave of mutilation + pestilence for mass killing. For Gob, pop your wrathful retarded gary next to it. If you use pirandho, pop that ontop of your gary. But once u have nice gear, nothing stops the death train until you meet an arnach pack. I hate those things!

Can you link your profile ? WD is a strong class - they can do torment even with crappy gear, can ya craft any gear like aughilds or cains ? A combination of Aughild + Asherea/Cains + Blackthorn will easily put you in Torment 3. To be more efficient you need mask of jeram and theos.

If you can do torment 1, do it. It's worth it. You will get imperial gems, gold and experience which are all crucial at your paragon level.

If you want easy mode gearing up then do RIF. But that will take the joy out of 'earning' your loots.
