Damage engine and purpose
Carnevil directs Fetishes at Dart targets and Dagger of Darts makes their shots pierce. LoD and Jeram replace a class set; Echoing Fury rewards sustained kills.
Item, skill and rune names use their English game spelling for unambiguous lookup. Explanations, rotation and limitations are fully translated.

Legendary and normal gems
Legendary gems: Enforcer / Legacy of Dreams / Simplicity's Strength.
Normally use an Emerald in weapon sockets; choose the helm socket for cooldown or Life needs. Match armour sockets to missing main stat or toughness. Seasonal Soul Shards replace helm or weapon gems only in the explicitly identified seasons.
Stats, cooldowns and optimisation
Intelligence, Poison, Poison Dart damage, critical stats and companion attack rate. Evaluate Spined Dart, Depth Diggers and Simplicity together.
Complete the required legendary powers, correct runes and full set bonuses first. Cooldown reduction combines multiplicatively; do not simply add percentage rolls. Weigh a boss gem against a farming gem according to actual boss-fight length.
Rotation: preparation, damage, refresh
Step 1
Generate Fetishes, summon dogs and build Soul Harvest for Lakumba.
Step 2
Group with Piranhado and aim Darts so Fetishes hit the entire pack.
Step 3
Use Spirit Walk to reposition; check Harvest stacks and pets after transitions.
Patch boundaries and verifiable context
The ring slot uses Unity rather than Stone of Jordan for solo protection. The Flavor of Time amulet power is legal in the jewellery Cube slot and is not additionally equipped.
Check before the next equipment change
Count set pieces before replacing a free armour slot. Equipping and cubing an identical legendary power does not double it. Solo Unity requires a follower wearing the other ring with immortality equipped.
This archive describes the period configuration. A current item database may show new numbers under the same name; those live tooltips do not prove historical multipliers. Old seasonal powers cannot be replayed on current non-seasonal characters.
