I got a few question regarding Archon and low budget ...

1) viable on low budget? (I can easily get 30K DPS, but higher needs some serious sniping)

2) How important is attack speed? (the higher the better?)
I know crit+Crit dmg is very important ... on everyone.

and
3) Do "passieves" go over to Archon mode, like Energy armor, Magic Weapon, etc

30k isn't enough start sniping and saving

Crit chance > attack speed > crit damage

I don't know where you heard crit damage > attack speed

Armor and buffs do go over archon but you cannot refresh them in archon

not saying Crit dmg> attack speed, just saying their important for DPS on any char, but I didn't know the AS-Archon relation (since Incinerate is better with slow weapons iirc, and though Archon might be the same)

but thank you for the advice.

attack speed adds more to dps if you have a witching hour and sufficient crit damage from weapon and ammy and your arcane strike is amazing with knockback if you have attack speed

your skills you might wanna try this... your gonna be SPAMMING 4 skills with one (time warp) every 8 seconds.
twister : wicked wind
energy armor : either force armor or the all res one. personal pref based on ur stats.
frost nova : either cold snap for ubers or the one where u increase crit dmg when hitting 5 or more
slow time : time warp
explosive blast : chain reaction
and diamond skin : chrystal shell

passives :
cold blooded
blur
critical mass.

I havent played in about ~6 months.

Can anyone tell me a viable build for Wizards? I can scramble together around 30M, so money isnt a huge concern.

Will give FG tip if someone can tell me if critical mass wiz is still viable, or could link me a viable guide that works atm.

30m? Cm is viable but not for 30m not anymore at least

30 million is EASILY enough to build a nice Archon Wizard that can farm super fast.

I made mine for way less than 30 million and i'm farming MP3 ultra fast. Elite packs just melt in seconds.

can u link profile?
looking to make a wiz that can farm mp1-3 while im bored with barb
can any1 tell me what items to go for? googled couple of builds and none of them have what items to go for, just skill build
i have about 100m-300m to spend on a wiz, not looking to do ubers just something on the side to play while im bored with barb
i should go cc > as > cd?

can anyone tell me if echoing fury is viable to use on an archon wizard? example:
1200/3ls/socket/.25 +aps echoing fury (1.45 aps)
or
1200/3ls/socket/8atk spd wand (1.51 aps)

what i want to know is that if the attack speed per second helps the wizard (specifically archon wiz) more so than a wand that can hit a higher aps overall than an echoing fury?
The barb benefits from echoing fury because the +aps affects both his weapons therefore giving him a massive aps boost.
i know wizards do not use a secondary weapon but why does chantodo's will spawn with it?
