This is actually one of the best skills the WD had in Beta. In a group of 4 at Leoric, I was easily taking half his health by myself! Run into his skeletons, use Soul harvest for a HUGE damage boost, then just stand right next to him, spam Dire Bats till your out of mana, then spam PoT till all your mana's back, rinse repeat. Even by myself, I could kill Leoric in one round after he summoned his first group of skellies, prolly less than 45 seconds total battle. PoT is a melee range skill, and combine it with Soul Harvest, you can take out groups of champions in a few seconds.

the mana cost + the randomness of the toads makes me feel corpse spiders (with the leaping rune) are better

i know at least 30% of the time i cast it, it didnt hit a single thing(which is mainly positioning)

corpse spiders ur mana regen is higher then the cost and there is more certainty with them

Mana cost for a primary spell seems too high. I will not use it.

After playing the open beta this weekend I had my heart set on the Demon Hunter, but after today's Witch Doctor spotlight and preview of Toad of Hugeness, I can't see myself playing anyone else.

@Plaguerage: I'm pretty sure they reduced the mana cost to 18 in patch 15, with a very reasonable 20 mana regen you can spam it all day erry day already lol

I'm hoping we get a different high end rune, either for more damage, more toads, or at least make them guided instead of random...

@Dusternis: Actually the more i think about it a small aoe slow(3yrds long duration, or 6 short maybe?), even with reduced damage, would be a amazing last rune to unlock. Useful in pve but the randomness would keep them from being too op in pvp.
