Deadly Rebirth

This ceremonial dagger pushes Grasp of the Dead to another level: it directly boosts the skill's damage and on top of that grants it the effect of the Rain of Corpses rune. That lets you pair the slowing field on the ground with raining corpses without ever having to slot the rune yourself.

For the Witch Doctor this frees up a rune choice while still delivering the full effect, opening a real damage window. It shines in a setup that pins enemies in one spot, so the slow and the impact keep landing on the same targets. Practical tip: drop the field at chokepoints or into tightly packed mobs, so the ground damage and the falling corpses overlap on the same crowd.

Rain of Corpses Plus a Second Rune

Grasp of the Dead costs 150 Mana, has an 8-second cooldown, slows enemies by 60% and deals 760% weapon damage over 8 seconds. Rain of Corpses adds 420% weapon damage over 3 seconds to nearby enemies. For the freed rune slot, the options are clear:

  • Groping Eels raises the base damage to 1360% weapon damage.
  • Desperate Grasp halves the cooldown to 4 seconds and turns the damage into Poison - you cast the skill, and with it the corpse rain, twice as often.
  • Unbreakable Grasp removes the Mana cost and raises the slow to 80%.
  • Death Is Life has a 70% chance to summon a Zombie Dog when an enemy dies in the area.

The Fixed Stats

The knife carries only fixed affixes: +626–750 Intelligence, +(981–1,199)–(1,175–1,490) Arcane Damage and 45–60% increased Grasp of the Dead damage. When judging a copy, that last number matters most; a Primal Ancient reaches 60%. The power itself has no range.

The Restless Dead

The flavor text explains the power: the restless dead are drawn up from the earth by the presence of this blade.
