Tbh, you shouldnt overdose on Res since the higher your res is, the lower % of change/resistant it'll do for 1 point of res

nop!

since 99% tanks 100% more ass 98%
this 1% you talk about is also tanking more!
its would be logic that you need to double your resist to get that %

So it all seems to stack in favour of upgrading res rather than armor.

This depends entirely on how you, as an individual, play your class. Most elemental damage originates from ranged attacks that, with the assistance of a couple running speed improvement mods, you can easily dodge. You are a caster, and therefore shouldn't get hit--you are the one doing the hitting and the obliterating.

What you should really focus on is how well you tank physical damage and how well you can escape from uncomfortable situations--such as losing your right to movement and than having the champion teleport right on top of you only to crush your skull into nothingness. This is the defensive part of your build, of course. The important part comes next:

Make sure you hit hard. Make sure you can stand there, in the face of an elite mob, and simply melt them down--not literally, of course.

i dont feel like reading all the posts whats the best wizard build u guys came up with?

Suicide, then Tyrael.

Lol, hey, it works

Works better than this build, that's for sure.

Uh, I seem to be to dumb to find it - what other ways of enhancing your movement speed other than +x% on boots and Lacuni Prowlers are there?

Boots and pants is fine.
