Okay, this is a phenomenal thread and I need to ask something I haven't seen any mention of yet: Critical chance + Critical mass. Is that dead now?

I'm still fresh with inferno but I run a setup with 41% crit (3% from merc / 5% from e-armor) using a slow 2H weapon and simply spam disintegrate/arcane hydra + nova (deep freeze)/diamond skin/teleport (fracture). I have 20k dps exactly and with my crit bonus/ crit chance I am able to kill enemies extremely quickly while the critical mass seems to give me the few extra secs needed to get my cds back up for a 2nd freeze/fracture/skin.

I am well aware of the increased difficulty in a2/3/4 as well as the "uselessness" of Dskin so I wonder if critical hit % coupled with critical mass is something which goes extinct towards end of act1? If there are Any successful users post 1.02 of crit builds, pls mention what you did right! Thank you. :hail:

no prismatic not gonna work a3 a4, u still need force armor

im currently at 4k armor 600allres with forcearmor and 950 with prismatic, prismatic doenst work in a3 a4.

if ur going pve build, go low hp with high res something like

25khp 600res or 30khp and 400res

im going pvp stats so im atm at 46khp,700allres , 66k dps, 1800lifereg with a new weapon gonna break 80kpds without crit and crit dmg.


Well damn. I feel dumb dropping so much on all res vit int gear. What's the thought process on low HP though? The old benefit was absorbing more with diamond skin but if you're taking teleport instead, wouldn't you be just as well served with more HP? Also when you gonna post your wizard? I think a lot of us in this thread are waiting to see your gear

nice guid it works rly good...

but i have an question about the ias

u mean 2.0 attackspeed?

what that means?

because u said the wep ias isnt that important and cant be to low


Let's say you have a weapon with 1.4 Attack speed. To reach 2.0 attack speed, you need just over 40% more IAS. So if your rings are 15% each and your glove is 10%, you will do 2.0 attacks per second.

Pretty bored of the cookie cutter wiz build. Been fucking around with lightning hydra, living lightning and the lighting stun passive + other random abilities. Makes the game interesting

ya i dont really care about boss kills etc..need to keep changing things to keep the game interesting for myself. I had enough of the cookie cutter mindset playing arena in wow. i only care about changing stuff up to stay interested and making money (mainly off farming champ/elites). To each their own
