I'm using it with Apply poison + Broad Head Arrow, very nice skill in missions like Vizunah Square, etc etc.

Epidemic is only good when enemies are gathered together.

I've thought about Fragility + Apply Poison/traps, but I haven't gotten around to chaning my R/Mo to R/Me.

I may use my Me/R to use Fevered Dreams + apply poison though.

Yes I do.

Fevered Dreams also works nice together with Apply + Buirning .... 10 degen acros the battlefield But, epidemic works fine, with a bit of practice you can pull them together and it doesn't trigger AoE.

I usually use Broad Arrow Head + Apply Poison and spam it across enemy casters.

Very useful skills for Hard Mode, I highly recommend Broad arrow + Apply Poison with Epidemic.

Epidemic is too short range generally for me to bother with, but I sometimes equip it on a E/Me hero for example; heroes seem to use it pretty well. Lately, especially in Hard Mode, I've been using the fevered archer setup - minimal (4) in Illusion, Fevered Dreams, Apply Poison, Pin Down, Throw Dirt, Screaming Shot, Concussion Shot. Spreads 7 pip degen, blind, cripple and daze, and seems to work well to take lots of pressure off. If it's melee mobs you start with cripple/blind to reduce stress, if it's mostly casters you can start by using the daze. Handy against fast casting bosses too, since you can instead hit a nearby caster with the daze, infecting the boss that way.
