There is no better position though.... After you cast your 3-4 spells you might as well just run in a circle and do nothing. I guess you could keep casting acid cloud, but that won't last long, and you would at least need to change the rune.

Ya know, One of the best things I like about the D3 skill system is that it (at least seems) flexible enough that you could successfully use all kinds of crazy builds.
One first look I saw your soul siphon on mouse bind, which seemed really off. But it'd be an interesting challenge to make something like this work, And I (for one lol) kinda see where your coming from. Really focuses on staying mobile and making sure you keep the dots with max soul siphon up. I could see it working with the right gear and I think thats whats awesome. \
I don't see what findulidas meant with his comment about saying you have to stand still to do damage.. doesn't make much sense. You have ZERO cast times and abilities that focus on slowing the enemy and escaping while doing dmg at the same time. Personally I like it and hope it works for you. I'm also one of those people that sees not using pets as a challenge that i'm eager to take on.
I also don't get jaclaflash's assumption that pets are absolutely necessary for Inferno when the reality is.. NOBODY KNOWS! YAY and THATS exciting!! I'm pretty stoked to play around with different builds, and even try to make random builds (ie chat gem!) work!

I think thats kinda the way Id go with a Dot Build.. Firebomb mostly cause I think its awesome and hope the firepools stack
Thanks for the great comments, I share your same views on the game, haters gonna hate I guess.
They are great comments, because he agrees with you....
What? seriously?
For example,
Petless WD is a flavor build and is non-optimal, Why?
a ) Blizzard said so on numerous occasions
b ) common fucking sense... meat shield = good.

You have not pets and 0 single target dmg. How are you going to kill a boss with that?
Heck, how are you going to kill anything with that?
Well thanks for the amazing input I guess I'll just have to scrap the whole build!
There's plenty of damage. Open your eyes.
What? Where? What are you going to do, cast your 4 dots and just stand there?
Grasp of the dead
Locust swarm
Acid Raid
Wall of zombies
??
Gee, I hope these mobs die...
Well GOOD LUCK, especially against a boss that could easily take a few minutes to kill.
On the other hand you could easily cast those 4 spells in less than 3 seconds...which leaves you 5 seconds to cast what? You have no filler shots....
You have nothing to spam...NOTHING! You are going for some ridiculous flavor build, and that never works out well.
PS: Seinfeld is not the least bit funny....possibly the worst comedian ever.
Implying I'm just going to stand there is not the best way to address my build when I clearly stated it's for kitting. I have slows to support this and a quick movement speed buff. Locust swarm does 468%% weapon damage, which is also greatly increased by Soul Harvest. Acid Cloud has (as ive stated) not been rune finalized. But it's damage is respectable and is a great cast and forget ability perfectly suited for kitting.
You must learn that inferno mobs will not simply die like Hell mobs in D2, they will take time to die no matter what, this build is quite safe when played correctly [read: skilled players].
Also no need to insult Seinfeld, that's crossing the line.
You are already gimping yourself by using a petless build, and to throw a dot flavor build on top of that is insane.
You have no cheap mana spell.
You have no spell to spam in between dots,
You have no pets.
You have two slows, but they both have cooldowns.
You might be able to beat normal with this build...I wouldn't expect a whole heck of a lot more than that.
Casting dots and running away is a terrible strat in PvM. All those dots, GotD + Acid Cloud + Locust Swarm, even running their full course would only do about 1000% wpn dmg, and given that it takes over 8 seconds for them to run their course thats merely about 125% wpn dmg per second....

There are 3 unique class items in the game, and the best affix is apparently 150 mana.
Which means in the best case with gear, not skills, you would have 1190 mana.
There are also other mana stats as well though,
+mana regen: max = 14
+mana on hit: max =12
+mana on kill: max =36
