i just wonder how you guys get to 6K dps @ lvl 51.

I am at LVL 52 and my dps only at 3K with 6 square topaz.

Depending on your primary stat, an increment of 100 dps in a weapon will yield nearly double your damage.

For Inferno you should all be using the highest DAMAGE weapon you can find. Not DPS, DAMAGE.

90% of your time will be spent running away and kiting while using Hydra, so weapon speed is irrelevant to any build.

Obvious things to have: Intelligence, Life Regeneration, Movement Speed

The last one is quite underrated and is arguably the most valuable of all stats in the game for Inferno.

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

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?
Boss you playing wiz? Got tips ka, pretty stuck now. Was doing the nonsense 4.7khp build, so now I'm rendered useless lol. How you survive act2 and above, apa strategy/build? biggrin.gif

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.
