you do get life back and that's probably the best way of getting life back as a wiz with 200k dps. This is our biggest problem, can't get enough life sustainability. Forced to use 2handers to try and get more LL% is going to really limit wiz play and annoying as hell since it's slow and you'll drop a lot of CC.

Just tested PTR finally.

- Blood magic nerf to the buff hasn't been put in yet.
- Blood weapon fix for archon hasn't been put in yet either. I'm assuming the rest of the updated 1.0.5 changes aren't in either.
-triumvirate in new patch will give more dps

Killing white mobs to maintain archon isn't a problem if you have 200k+ dps, even in MP10 it's ok-ish and your archon down time isn't too much (in solo).

Killing elites in MP10 is madness, the hp is insane and they hit really hard in act 3. HP on it's own isn't a problem a 20-30mil hp elite can still be killed in under a minute, IF i don't die. Some mobs i can kite or dodge their attacks manually and it's alright. The fast ones that i can't dodge I'm dying a lot.

Saw 1 rare monster on 50mil hp on solo, crazy HP.

MP5-6 is quite manageable and I'm playing it similar to act 3 in the current patch. 7-10 gets tough. I've got 230k dps, 1k all res in archon mode (not using prismatic armor), 2.9% LL. Not able to maintain hp against some elites if I have to tank too many hits and can't manually kite. I guess with some 1.0.5 rings/amulets I might be ok, will try to stack ias/cc/res instead of trifecta.

/e biggest problem is a sustainable life source. Stacking Loh isn't really a good option since almost everything have low loh proc, stacking LL at high DPS is ok until you run into elites on high MP level and since we can't stack enough of it we've got a problem. It would be good if wiz source can also get 3% LL then i think all problems can be worked around.


red, gonna need a link to your profile again. i need to find me a LL weapon...and apparently more res

Looking for any tips / improvements for my setup. I'm not having any trouble atm, but there's always room for improvement with 1.05 coming!

230 k archon 2,9 ll on weapon

http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Cleaner-2415/hero/186742

mp 5 works well , 6 ók too but struggling , cant keep my archon up effectivly. Mistral or wicked works . I will test a cm built with living lighning tomorrow on mp lvl 10 , lets see if lifesteal is enough for it , pretty optimistic

skorn? u must be kidding right? Your attack speed just sucks then. Slow attack speed almost kills any built, even archon built in the resfresh cycle when u need to quickly cast spells to cooldown your archon as ffast as possbible , even more with all the proc nerfs. Skron for cm wizards is no option at all , because they rely on attack speed even more.

I've been busy with work last 3 weeks, really need to work on some upgrades. That weapon needs to be gone, need a 1.4APS weapon. Willing to give up int, as long as it's got base crit, socket, life steal and a bit more weapon phy dmg. Need to change half of my gear straight away if i want to survive higher MP

with trium this goes to 230k dps in PTR.

Paragon level will also make a big impact, if i can get another 30-40 levels it'll go along way.

Hi every1. I'm wondering what's wrong with my Wizard - I just can't farm/exp/progress in Act 3 Inferno.

Here are my items and skill setup: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Ripper-2385/hero/17910645

Any ideas what should I change? Skills or equipment? Currently I got ~3m gold to spend but I can't see any viable upgrade.

I'd love any suggestion because I find it completely pointless to farm act 1 or act 2 - I'd rather create a barbarian : s

Lifesteal finally gets wide approved as a must-have on wizards, nice :-).
I wanted to test ptr but it copied my hero without the latest buys (triumvirate and a new helm).... and I cant copy my acc again, some quite dumb shit :/

You need a new amulet, Id say drop crit chance and go with pure crit damage and int, should be cheap enough. Id also say you need to stack much more int... :)
