K to avoid being seen as being a noob, I'm gonna come up with the excuse that I'm at work and can't read your code in detail properly tongue.gif

But using your values to input formula:

=((((1233.5)*14.46)*1.495)*1.6)*(1+(0.05*0.5))

I get 43731.31004, which is pretty close to your DPS (just copy paste above into excel). Not sure where in your code went wrong though tongue.gif Since your terlebih, and the other values look right, am assuming it's due to the application of skill boosts? (since I can't see it from screenshot)

Geek much, LOL

1H is useless now because the attack per second modifier is nerfed, making off hand damage bonus less effective.. my 1H sword yesterday was 1057 dps now 900+ oni... tried to sell it yesterday but failed sad.gif

Re-geared my wiz for more def now

HP 30k
Armor 5k
All Resist 800

DPS
- 31k unbuffed
- 35k + Force Weapon
- 39k + FW + Sparkflint

act 1 & 2 is easy mode for me now but still can't make the transition to act III D:<

I think I will drop the all resist to 500 (so that it will be 1:10 ratio) and get more DPS but I just not sure where to start!
I'll post my gears later so you guys can halp me on which item to upgrade. icon_question.gif

oh my lol.. every wizard i encounter in act4, they're all with shields and with standard wicked wind + critical mass build.

if u have higher death rates, then you're not doing it right.
but i dont agree for wizards to go on this build permanently. why tank mode? wanna tank please roll a barb or a monk, you'll get 30% less dmg by default. why throw a passive for blur and mess up a wizard's nature for dps.. O_o
it's nice to give it a try but when you're a wizard, you join a public game in act4, people expect you to dps and not tank.

i've joined a few games lately in act4, 2barbs, 2wizards. and i was the only one killing, it's pathetic i kept dying because all when elites hit on me, there's not way i can keep up my dmg to compensate 3 tanks. it's amazing the wizard can tank 2pack of elites in act4, but if i'm not there, 100% the boss will go on rage.
it took so long to kill izual than usual.

my honest opinion, to beat act4, you need 1 good tank and that's enough.

wiz + wiz = tank + dps << this combo is pretty good because this tank freezes the mob all the time, but most wizards cannot tank alone, there has to be a barb with war cry only for them to tank in nicely.

oh btw, maybe i have not met one yet.. wiz tank's dps is VERY PATHETIC. i'd prefer a monk/barb tho.
at least i get dodge buff or armor buff.

You know your stuff girl! rclxms.gif
I really don't understand why malee wizard build is so popular. I mean, its not like the gear is less expensive because u have to compete the prices with other malee classes too.. Wizard should have high DPS with adequate enough effective hp to take a few hits, not facetank them! icon_question.gif

@dino
Go create new barb or monk instead! tongue.gif
