I'm trying to come up with a character that is made up of hundreds of thousands of insects driven by a human intelligence. So any ability should be like insects protruding from the body to attack enemies. I don't know what abilities would give that illusion. I figure maybe infernal with a little bit of beastial for some bleeds. I don't know if there are other abilities from other sets that look like insects attacking.
This is what I came up with...

Let me know what you all think and if there are any abilities from other sets that might give the visuals of insects coming from the body and attacking. Thanks in advance.
Comments
Although it is thematic, Locust Swarm won't be that great here, since it's single-target only, and paralyzes can break early to inc dmg. If you want to make Locust Swarm more useful (since it's really good for the theme), then maybe go w/ a Sentinel Mastery setup for it (since you can also use Venom Breath's stun adv here). It would also prob be easier to just use FotT as the toggle/form w/ DE. Here's an example edit of it:

The open power slot can be used for w/e ya want.
Venom Breath is the main AoE attack, while DE is the main single-target attack. In either case, you can use the Wisp to debuff. Locust Swarm can also be thrown in on single-target fights to proc Sentinel Mastery and Wither, while Venom Breath's stun adv can also do that for AoE. Gears mostly for Con, w/ some Dex and End/Rec (and some cost discount on gear).
