God my first game as Leoric was awful T_T I'm getting a little bit better trying to implement some of the things learned from this guide but still, I don't think I'm that good of a Leoric.

Despite WW I still find it hard to get out sometimes as it seems he dies so quickly.

Nevertheless Leoric is a really cool hero to play with

Take both "Hardened Bones" and "Lingering Apparition" as talents. The extra damage reduction from Hardened Bones with the increased WW duration from Lingering can make a huge difference when paired. Throw a Drain Hope out before you wraith walk and you'll get free heals as you tp away! Good luck, let me know how it goes.

I noticed that hitting the Drain Hope is key to survival as Leoric, if you miss you don't even have to engage. And that people are really dumb for staying in range. I also noticed that disposition and stun, while the skill searches for a target, blocks the effect. Still not sure but a Tychus Grenade made the Hand effect just vanish. Even though I was still in range of the Target and would have hit it regardless.
But yeah in game experience can never be 100% certain.

So I bully Leoric with Muradin and doesn't give him another target but me for drain hope and then just get out of range. And he is screwed for 10ish seconds. Just have to be careful since I expose my team doing that. But at my level Leorics actually still go in and just evaporate.

Drain Hope really creates an interesting dynamic though. Especially since it heals or Leorics max hp and not the targets.

I haven't changed the build yet but I started using the DH as you suggested, makes a huge difference (I hadn't read your post yet but someone I played told me that as well). I was mostly using DH as a last ditch "kill that dude with the only real range that I have". I was getting some kills that way, but my sustain was not brilliant and sometimes escaping was not fast enough. Now the DH allows me to do some damage and be alive while WW away. I'll try the changes in the build as well today, thanks

I've played him some more last night and it went much better.

Oh and I had the most satisfying march of the black king yesterday 4 kills with it. We had two tanks so I wasn't the first to engage (I was capping the shrine) and they went 5v4 (or so they thought)! I ran in from behind when they were backing up, double Q and they stopped and turned the other way, my team pressed on so they ran again in my direction but into my march and bam :D
