'''Grasp of the Dead''' is a Secondary [[Witch Doctor skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|level]] 2. This skill is a curse; it inflicts victims with much slower foot speed and deals damage as well. It's highly , and is hugely useful to a low level Witch Doctor, while retaining good value throughout the game and even in the high level [[ArenaPvP]] PvP.

This [[skill]] is very powerful, but has even with a very fairly small radius . Its slowing effect makes sure that enemies remain in the area of effect. Possibly this for longer, and it can be increased cast below enemies who are engaged in combat with the Witch Doctor's pets or with a [[runestone]]. As it is, GotD requires precise aim and timing to hit a moving targetother players.
