What skills are you running?

high mp levels are reserved for the well geared, any1 calling this unfair is a big baby

I was trying out different primaries living artillery does way too little damage for me in cases like goblins
Been using slow time archon for a3 teleport for a1 and 2
Storm armor is meh now cause its damage around and not per times you're hit. With Ls it would actually diminish some damage

Mp10 is manageable if I put time into it which I think is not worth
5-7 is the most efficient

Trying to work my way to getting 500 Dex for 20% dodge and more armor while keeping the same amount of int and res

So far I tried different variations of melee wizzard and all of them suck. I want to address optimists in this thread who suggest that we should "adapt". So how is getting to 2,2+ aps, 20+apoc, 45+crit and high res and armor and the same time is "adapting"? It's fucking not. If you got 300-400 millions laying around, than ofc, because decent chantodo's wands are so hyped that only mega rich players can afford them, getting attack speed on jewelry is affordable (althought with int/cc and some resists is still expensive), but lacunis with crit or witching hour with res is like 100 mill a piece (same goes to tal armor with all res), so how the fuck do I adapt if I have 40 millions?

I tried mp4 with mistral breeze - big packs of white mobs still die fast, but a pack of reflect moloks in fields of slaughter demolished me, I just couldn't lock any of them and their damage is pretty insane as it is, even with my 19% block and 20% dodge and fucking huge shield I am still getting destroyed.

The only good thing about this patch is spectral blades healing blades, works very good, I got 60k dps and I heal for 600-1200 per hit. Wizzards with 100k dps and high aps gonna love this.

Gonna try to experiment with shock pulse, let's see what happens.

I dont want to do High mp, but 5 would be nice when youre used to Easy A3 farming. And this is def a Class Problem since other classes with Similar A3 Speed CAN do mp5. So it all comes down to The overnerf without any useful buffs

my shitty wizard is facerolling mp6 but I have a q:

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Neutral-2364/hero/1798486

worth getting ar on rings or keep stacking more loh in those slots? ty guys

its a gear issue not nerf issue, mp 4 is already more than 104 difficulty anyway so be glad you can farm that far with cheap gear. so stfu and dish out a credit card, or else dont QQ and blame it on the nerf.




a player who doesnt qq and knows what he is doing

Lmk though, cause those stupid fire constructs in a2, when spawning with stacked desecrator, are raping me
any ideas guys?

+ thanks for compliment

also, iso an all resist Tal Rasha plate if you guys find one!

50+ ar at least

loh, 800-1000 loh from just ring slots is fucking insane

lets say you get 100 more fire res, it will do nothing. Nothing. its heavy tick based dmg, get tele / reposition, never stand in them if you can.

Ok, guys, after some experimenting I found out that Shock Pulse - Lighting affinity does wonders. Somehow battle.net doesn't want to show my profile, no idea why. (http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Mad1Lee-2243/hero/195500)

So I constantly spam 5 buttons: lmb - lighting affinity, rmb - frost nova (had to switch to cold snap), 1- diamond skin (first rune ofc), 2 - explosive blast (switched to chain reaction - more effective unless you got godly aps and cc to spam short fuse), 3 - wicked wind. I switched from storm armor - shocking aspect to prismatic armor, because at mp4 mobs hit super hard, so unless you got godly resists (like ~1k all without prismatic) I suggest leaving shocking armor for some better times.

I've got 1.91 aps, just 15 apoc, no LoH. LoH would be pretty useful I guess, but so far I am doing without it. Key to this build is to spam shock pulse as soon as you see your ap going down, it got amazing proc coeff. (.67) and it restores 3 ap per enemy hit (and it does damage and it's free). It helps to spawn more wicked winds, so as soon as you got 4+ wicked winds rolling you can lock any pack. Been testing for 30 minutes - act 3 mp4, yet to face fast molten occultists.

If anyone tries it, I would appreciate feedback. So far it works.
