I have a N/Me, so here are some things to look at:

Synergy... what complements and enhances something else.

Example:
Soul Barbs + Wastrel's Worry = good

Good choices to start are:

Illusion + Blood work very well.

Curses + Illusion or Curses + Blood or Blood + Death or Curses + Domination or even Blood + Domination.

Start off by using blood skills, as they are your main source of healing. Make sure you have points into Soul Reaping, that gives you energy that you need to cast spells.

Hope this helps you with a start.

Good luck, and have fun.

Thank you very much for the help. I think I will use blood/illu/sr for leveling and curses/illu/sr when I hit 20. I'm thinking of trying ss sometime as well.

Thank you again for the help

If going SS, see how you like a Curses, Domination, Soul Reaping build.

I use:
16 Curses (12+1+3), 10 Domination, 9 Soul Reaping (8+1); though I imagine 9 Domination, 10 (9+1) Soul Reaping would work well too.
[skill]Spinal Shivers[/skill][skill]Arcane Echo[/skill][skill]Spiteful Spirit[/skill][skill]Empathy[/skill][skill]Backfire[/skill][skill]Insidious Parasite[/skill][skill]Parasitic Bond[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill] or Sunspear Rebirth Signet
Spinal Shivers can be swapped for anything you want if interrupts are not needed (or if the party feels [skill]Blood Ritual[/skill] is really necessary). [skill]Reckless Haste[/skill] would be a nice skill to put there. [skill]power Return[/skill] is another decent choice for a PvE Interrupt.

Some weaknesses are lack of an instant self heal, and low energy until things start to die. Use Spiteful Spirit, Empathy, and Insidious Parasite on different targets as to spread the damage out among many enemies, most enemies should die while being affected by just one of these curses.
