Plague of Toads

Plague of Toads is available at level 1.

Grasp of the Dead is available at level 2.
A powerful curse, this one deals damage as well as slowing enemies for a short duration.

Description: Hands reach out, slowing enemies by X% and dealing X-X damage per second for X seconds.

Horrify

Horrify is available at level 7.

Development

The Witch Doctor's skills and skill trees were first seen at BlizzCon 2008, with only a few skills enabled and many showing nothing more than vague descriptions in the skill tree. The listing was fleshed out at Blizzcon 2009, but most of his skills, especially the summoning ones, remained NYI. The current information was revealed at Blizzcon 2010, with the passive skills removed (see the Witch Doctor traits and a near-final skill listing.

A large number of the higher level WD spells have still never been shown publicly, in contrast to the skills of the Wizard and Barbarian, almost all of which have been shown off.
