Dundunugu's and area damage?

I’m guessing it benefits greatly from area damage? - could probably swap 7% ias for 20% area damage if I am already at 1.8 attacks per second?

Run the build a little light, run it a little faster?

Area damage doesn’t effect Mundunugu

How can that be? The whole build is based off area damage and exploding objects?

You may refer to the build guide: https://maxroll.gg/guides/mundunugu-spirit-barrage-witch-doctor-guide
There are three sentences in the guide:

It focuses around releasing big Area of Effect (AoE) bursts with a specific setup and timing, and can therefore deal devastating damage.

The build itself does not benefit from Area Damage as most others (as The Barber explosion has a proc-coefficient of 0), however it nominally replicates Area Damage with its AoE-explosion in the end.

Area Damage is entirely useless in this build (and actively avoided in groups including in Paragon Points).

Area damage is not useful
Focus on IAS and CDR instead
