Any one that can make a good case for either the bats or the bears? I'm looking for some hard hitting skill to anchor my progression to level 60 and inferno.
I haven't had too much experience with Bats, but I'm now in Inferno with a Splinters/Bears build. The raw power of Bears is amazing IF you can aim it right. If you just point wherever and spam it, the bears kind of move in all directions away from you and don't get much accomplished. If you aim it right, you can take down Champ/Rare packs in a few seconds. Like Bats, they can hit larger mobs multiple times.
Bears is really great when casting down hallways and staircases. It's also worthwhile to note that Bears start their journey from behind you and move forward, so another decent (yet risky, but incredibly fun) tactic is to jump into the middle of a pack with Spirit Walk and spam away.
