Voodoo Doll Skill Points?
 

I'm currnetly with 2 skill points in everything except for three in Attune Doll and 1 in Spirt Ward, and I wasn't sure where everyone else has found it useful to put your skill points, such as is it worth investing in Scorch? How many points do you invest in Attune Doll and Focus? Do you add more to Poke and Swarm?

thanks for everyone for their help!

How much do you use your doll? Do you heal mostly? Fight solo? Figth with a crew? This info will help me point you in the best direction.

Due to lack of friends, and that my guild has no one on a good portion of the day I mostly fight solo and I don't heal all too often but I'd like to be able to do it well when I need to. I do use my doll and staff quite often.

I would just suggest putting 5 in poke and swarm. 5 in life drain, and 5 in the skill that increases attuning.

For my doll, I have 3-5 for attuning, 5 in poke, 5 in swarm, 5 in both heals, 5 in life drain, and 1 in chains. I'm not entirely sure about the rest since I haven't checked in a while (or if this even adds up to the correct total), but the above is close to what I use. I don't ever put points in the passives, heal, scorch, or curse. In my opinion those are a waste (except curse when trying to get 100+ on enemies close to your level - although high attack = faster kills, and possibly faster rep).

Id add the following to the above:
Two points in heal one in cure. Have a life doll of some kind to boost the healing when you need it, and a Bane doll to deal damage. Grave Shackles are nice when fighting multiple attackers so you can break contact.

Spirit mastery and Conservation skills on the staff should be maxed as well.

Good luck mate!
