cwdt + tempest shield?

would this work?
cast when damage taken + tempest shield + curse on hit + warlord mark
As long as the Warlord's Mark outlevels CwDT and Tempest Shield does not, it will work.
that was the plan.

cwdt lvl 1
tempest shield lvl 1
curse on hit max lvl
warlord's mark max lvl

Won't you curse MORE mobs by having a low level warlord mark (it's all 2% leech regardless of level), then depending on tempest shield to spread the curse? For 1, the normal block chance is 25% or so, then it only spreads to 2 mobs? Whereas a normal 'cast' of curse, hits any number of mobs that is near the one who triggers the cwdt.

e.g
cwdt lvl 1
increase duration max lvl
increase AOE max lvl
warlord's mark lvl 7

might be better?
The important part about using Curse on Hit is that you can get 10% curse penetration with 20q. Combine that with some curse passives in the tree (like Scrabbling Runes) and your curses can actually have a decent impact on boss fights.

This is my setup fwiw:


I take around 15-18% less damage from bosses. That's pretty big for a four-link investment + three passives.

yes or reckoning + curse on hit + curse but i'm trying to find room for tempest shield and also want it working on it's own.

i am playing a block build.

23% block from passives
30% from lioneye's shield
3% from tempest shield

= 56% total block

it would be foolish to not have tempest shield in a block build imo. gonna do a soultaker cyclone marauder or dominating blow marauder in warbands.
