How come chances on getting critical hit = increase your base damage?


Added on May 23, 2012, 7:57 pmthis is shiat. why is Energy Armor + Force Armor being nerf????????

Yo,

Using 1 handed which gives about 630dps, and offhand source forgot some low number until 200 I think.

Finding it hard to balance, not enough slots for all the spells needed. Thanks to awesome nerfs >_>

What's your build currently?

Damage absorbed cannot exceed the maximum health implies that the 35% absorbed cannot exceed your maximum health.

Assuming you have 3.5k health and the monster hits you for 10k damage. 35% of that 10k is absorbed by exceeds your health, you thus die. Basically instead of being better the lower your HP is, Force Armor now relates directly to your maximum health.
Of course this doesn't matter. Act IV Inferno mobs hit for 170k damage wink.gif

just found a rare 2H sword that have 220dps and 13% attack speed. damn, my dps jumps from 2k+ to 4.7k now.. and this seems too much for act 3 nightmare. champion pack looks so easy haha lucky me!

for me, weapon and glove with int and +attack speed is the best.

other eq just try to get things with int and vit.

all slot put in topaz except slot for helm you put amethyst (because adding topaz to helm just increase magic finding while amethyst in helm slot increase HP)

slot for weapon put ruby (simply because to increase weapon damage. high weapon damage, your spells somehow hit harder)

How much DPS should I have at the end of act 2 and act 3 NM? Was doing OK till I start finding Kulle's stuff. All of a sudden it became a need to have a tanky player in the same party else I'd be spending loads on item repair.

before i found the sword i mention above, my dps is at 2k+, going into act 2 and 3 of nightmare. i only died when 3 champions pack came together at once. seems like impossible but this thing happen 2-3 times on me. so, this is the only time i died.

dps should not be the sole focus. that is why finding items with vit option in it is also crucial. as a wiz, you got several options. kill the enemy before they get near you (imba damage) or have balance on both damage and survivability and be able to take some beating. IMO, the latter seems more realistic and acvhievable.

Kite, kite and kite. I don't play a Wizard but the fundamentals don't change. All the monsters have telegraphed attacks so its easy to know what they'll do next. Lacuni stalkers will swing their hands back if they're about to lob a grenade or they'll arch back when they pounce.

Venom Hydra + Blizzard is the way to go as usual.

..or you can do this:

Ah okie, kite huh. Thing is, wiz don't deal enough burst dmg in D3, so kiting is real inefficient =(

Yeah trying to do something like that. You hardcore farmer kan bro, any chance you got a 1 handed wand/dagger around 800dps for cheap? biggrin.gif

Magic find is more important as you lvl up. Especially when you start hitting lvl 60
