Calls in a subjugated Dreadlord that rains meteor fire and can be detonated for a Felspike nova.
Mechanics:
- •Fel Touched stacks blow up every four seconds, rewarding sustained cleave
- •Touch of Malice guarantees Twisted Crusade crits and spreads Fel Touched faster
- •I Am My Scars reflects enemy hits for Chaos damage, ideal for tanks and soloing
- •Felspike replaces Twisted Crusade after cast, letting you sacrifice the Dreadlord for massive AoE
