Alrighty do you guys pref to use Offhands or just 2h weps.


If you are using Offhands what stat priorities are you using for Shield or Mojos


Always 1hand offhand until they make 2hands ridiculously better.

Base Damage > int

I don't get how people in higher end gear spam zombie bears. I have about 30k dps, with a good amount of IAS. I am out of mana (I have 888) within 3 seconds. Even with all the proper passives. I easily spammed them while leveling. Now that I have IAS, I can't even come close to sustaining them for even 10 seconds.

are using spiritual attunment + vision quest?

if so, and you're still having problems, then try to get some mana regen or +max mana items.

Is most everyone here still using the OP build?

Been playing around with a lot of different techniques, but I haven't been working on any more Inferno progression. Sitting at Act II right now. Haven't even attempted the first quest.


e: Just started Act II. I'm getting destroyed by the few little rock-dweller guys (the first monsters you encounter). Making me sad. :/
What I assume to be the easiest mobs in A2 are hitting me for ~37k. No fun.
ee: I have just over 37k health, for the record.

I use the OP build and I can take a hit from most mobs in act2 before Spirit Vessel kicks in... and I have 30k hp.
But my resists are 450-500 each could it be that? what are yours?
but by the way the rock-dweller guys hits alot harder then many other mobs in a2^^

hmm... 30kdps with a good dps or not doesn't matter for ur actual dmg per second. I got 1,9aps and 30k dps. Each bear hits harder then urs.
I havent really find that IAS is "the" key for this build. sure it's nice but if u have the damage u can pull him off.
+ias is calculated to ur damage already, so 3.00attacks per seconds and 30k dps means each attack has 10k damage simply (i guess you know but easy to get confused which stats are active and passive on ur stats)


Sure, I have mana problems once in a while. But it's manageable.
I have 888mana, spiritual attunement, spirit vessel and vision.
I use +mana in all runes (rain dance, soul harvest +39mana per, spirit walk +mana)


Next upgrade for me will be max mana and mana regen ger and ofcourse even higher dps, so that I can go for other passive then spiritual attunement. Like the Grave injustice, and vs boss' the 20%damage/30%mana cost one

I have my personal build that is WAY better than this one.
With this build ur lacking surviving abilities.

My advice is: forget about this bullshit build and try to make one yourself that will suit you.

Remember that you will need these spells:
Escape spell
Buff spell
Crowd control spell
Single target spell
Aoe spell
Dot spell

Okay as I stated in post ^three above, I want to try stack my mana and my mana reg so much that I can change out my spiritual attunement vs grave injustice (farming) and pierce the veil(boss')
I got this first, im so in love with it, but damn it cost alot on the AH^^




hass all the stats I was looking for; Mass mana, mana reg, critchance>5%

This build in thread covers all but 1, that's the DoT spell.

sure you can build ur WD differently, but I've yet to see anyone beat the zombie bears yet. But sure I am not close minded there might be! ;)
