Doom- Inflicts impending doom upon the target, causing dealing [ 175% 104.41% of Spell Power ] Shadow damage immediately and [ 104.41% of Spell Power ] Shadow damage to enemies within 10 yards after 20 sec. Damage is reduced beyond 8 targets. Consuming a Demonic Core reduces the duration of Doom by 3 sec damage generates 1 Soul Shard.

So, this is literally the tier set we have now but since we get less Demonic Core procs we'll still be waiting about 14 seconds for this to go off.
