Added on May 24, 2012, 11:57 amand guys... additional question: the wep damange does affect our spell? so If increase my wep damage via Force Weapon means will help for my spell as well? (wow I love the electronic balls shooting)

I just did a quick search in AH with 50k you can get 865 DPS damage weapon - 2 handed.

You don't need to use 1 hand for Hell. I mean, not for now.

Thank you for the tips!

May I ask, is it yellow or blue items?

haha but i always prefer 1H + offhand source... but if can get 865 DPS 2hand I think I can survive a while....

Just a side question: item found in AH are scaled to your current level?

Yes. Item searched are scaled according to your level. But if you did indicate what level of item you're searching, it will find the indicate level weapon.

Level box put - 60 to 60

1st attribute box put - Reduce Level Requirement - put 3

Price Range - 50k

Search.
*
wow cool tip! but 1 question: level requirement put 3, will it get some very low dmg search result?

Also can I put the DMG criteria as 800, then see if any chance for get it cheap? (I once bought an legendary off hand, triumph something for only 1K golds....)

and forgot to mention, my current DPs is ... .. 8.2k with both magic wep and spark flint turn on... doh.gif

(hm... triumph... makes me recall a brand of -0-0- )

whoa thanks to you guys' suggestion. Yesterday i went AH, spent around 70k golds bought an yellow katana with 750 dmg. (and plus 200-450 arcane dmg). My output jump from 8.4k to 21k. Woo hoo now Hell Act 1 became piece of cake...
(except my hp still 5.6k, any elite/ champion touch me then gone case again sweat.gif)

That simply means it does the 'standard' Hydra's damage. I have to disagree about Lightning Hydra being better tho (as would the Wizard forums). Venom Hydra is simply out and out our best spell right now. Once the poison pools stack, hooo boy do the mobs die fast.

alright, set, let's venom hydra tonight mwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! rclxm9.gif

wow guys, just reached lvl 60 and never know the game give money and magic item buff after lvl 60 notworthy.gif (But still extremely hard to find legendary items...)

BTW i still in hell Act III, my damage from the spec is 33k but my health is only 13k, am I so typical glass canon? (I have use all lvl 60 items.. .most of them still lvl 57 items)

btw I notice blizzard + piercing orb is so good for solo and support, what my wizard does is:


Attached Image

whenever a pack of elite come, sure to send either my barbarain (if mp) or my templar (if sp) front, I release at least few hail storm on them to do the aoe and aot damage, then non stop shooting piercing orb which is kinda high damage + pierce through all enemies in one line. And of course, my venom hydra does lots of helps as well!

Being 32k output makes hell ACT III super easy... but sometime still got 1 hit killed by elite... or those self-explosion mob (fanatic something one) hm... wonder if I should change my build.

Any build where your concern is stacking damage, instead of defensive stats. You know, as powerful as a cannon, but as fragile as glass

Eh, it works as long as you're 60. If it's stopped working all of a sudden it may be a bug.

It was working for me last night up til 2am.

Hm... I played until 2:30 am yesterday. But previously in Hell difficulty all works fine. After switch to inferno act one then no more... hope when I log in back tmmr all are ok. (need to farm gold!)

u sure u killed elite? (blueish mobs)
unique mobs (yellowish ones) dont give valor

Yes.... the yellowish one.

haha good that I still keep my INT rings after I swap them with +atk speed. Later after the patch need to do comparison again.

Now i'm saving up all the golds for 1k + wep. But I might not need to do so since inferno Act I can get ilvl63 items, perhaps I just be rajin and keep on farming it.

my gear isn't that good now
38k dps (with magic weap / glass cannon)
20k hp, 400 res
20 arcane per crit  <-- i can spam arcane orb with tap the source if im aoeing large mobs
~30% crit chance + 8% arcane orb chance crit
~3k LoK <-- need to change this sweat.gif was busy abusing hydra pre 1.03 lol

need a new 1h weap...only 870 dmg atm...
*
I found that the best way to spam aoe spell is put blizzard as your right click with the rune 'snow bound' which reduce the arcane power required. longer duration for large area of effect, high dmg somemore. can easily kill whole bunch of normal mobs without your main spell. (somemore can slow them down!!!)

But ofcourse, if encounter those super fast moving champion then sorry...

hm... personally i feel magic missle although high damage but only single target. I use the piercing orb all the time (high dmg and go through all the mobs)

Your DPS is really too low for your build. Try aim for 40k DPS. I don't think you can solo him because you probably won't survive Phase 1 and 2. That DPS is okay for melee wizard since can stay there and take the damage.
*
are you guys using glass canon? I notice glass canon is really hard during solo in inferno. I pump my dps to 32k but still find it hard for act onwards. Guys I need some advise on balacing btwn dps and survivability... (and gold find tongue.gif ;p)

Is Belial (inferno) immune to our Venom hydra attack?
