Full Build Details

With 68% bonus decay damage from gear, 30% from Possessed Boon, 15% from Gift of Blood, 10% from Spiritual Communion, 15% from Brains, 15% from corrupted, and 10% from resting in the Corruption Totemic Lodge, you're going to be totaling 163% bonus decay damage. Your blood turret will be dealing a massive 1183 damage over 30 seconds.

With 25% fire damage from gear, 30% from Warm Boon, 15% from Brains, and 30% bonus from Immolate, you're going to be totaling 100% bonus damage on your ring of fire (1200 over 25 seconds) or fireball, both of which also have a guaranteed burning effect.

The main weakness of the build will be Lightning damage, sitting at -65% assuming all buffs active and using an elemental resistance potion.

Take specialist skills Brains and Unsealed. Take 1 point in mana.

Curse Hex is a flex-slot but there aren't a ton of other good options to choose from.

Swap to the Jade-Lich Mask whenever you want full decay/poison immunity.

The 'Shelter' enchant on one piece of gear is important because it will give you full immunity to Immolate damage during your combo. The Sang Froid enchantment will not prevent this.
