Tips and tactics

Torment is Shadow-based, so Curse of the Elements will help your Voidwalker land Torment more often. It can be resisted, and does not guarantee that your Voidwalker will get aggro in a snap.

When set on auto-cast, the game's AI merely uses this on the Voidwalker's current target whenever possible. The Voidwalker can cast Torment fairly consistently during combat, but prolonged periods of grinding will begin to eat into the Voidwalker's meager mana reserves. The Demonology talent Mana Feed will help mitigating it.
