That's is true that +Str increases your armor. But, wizard have a skill called Energy Armor which increase your Armor by 65% and I still find it useless because I still need Diamond skin to survive.

Just IMO, wizard don't really benefits from the extra armor. It's better for you to go for Shield with a decent 'damage block'. I have over 1500 armor with Energy Armor but I still die easily without Diamond skin.

Well this is for Solo mode btw (:

Item with Magic Find stats/Gold Find
Oh yes I do that too early in the game (: Well you're right. With a tanker, those extra armor are benefitial. Less damage receive, more survival survivability since you don't need the extra health, its better to go for armor.

On a side note, Wave of force deals out a crazy amount of damage. Especially chances on getting critical magic hit. Anyone notice?

Damn. I'm only at level 11

Guys, what are your thoughts on this:

I'm currently using Original Wirt's Leg. Despite it's low damage, I find the 10% MF to be VERY attractive.

However, I deal damage like a school girl who just had a break up and has no access to sugary stuff.

Think I should just stick to my leg, or should I screw the 10% MF in favour of better damage?

I'm inclined for the former, but everytime I wanna switch, I find a blue item.

Noted! Thanks guys

So I guess I'll revert to my better spec'd items.

How bout int vs vit. Coz 5 int gives you damage boost less than 1%, while 5 vit gives you 50 life.

Thoughts?

Its not abt stand there and use normal atk, its abt ur spell dmg. juz try it out, atk spd ring giv u more dmg.

hey guys, sometimes my archon last longer than a minute , how does it happen?

It makes no sense that att speed increase dmg, unless is in a ideal situation  where mob stand there let u free hit or other character that can continue spam skill which we call DPS. Instead of looking at the info display by the game, i think the best way is to see the dmg done on mob itself. I dont think attack speed can do higher damage on mob in single hit compare to int.

attack speed wont really be useful in hell... at least i havent found a build that needs attack speed. we'll need raw damage since we wont have time to stand and pew pew

so our dps would be higher according to our weapon's dps or our overall intel? i thought if we have higher intel, thus we'll have higher dps?

whaooooooooooo so nice!!!

mine only 331.6 dps, and i am using it at level56 at hell act2!!

they r talking bout weapon dps, not their overall dmg.. lol
2k~2.3k, u can't even  hope to survive hell

shojikun, what level are you? I might have some weapon to spare.

Guys what is your total damage in inferno? I find it hard still to kill those monkeys with 15.4k damage.

I can't find any good source so still stick with 2 handed. In away its better since my AP consume is not so hardcore.

What is the best rune for disintegrate? Currently level 40 in nightmare mode.

Level 60 28k hp, 23k dps, 6000 armor, resistants all 350+, regen 700 per sec, life steal 600 per hit.
Almost all minion in inferno act2 can kill me in 3-5 hit. 

Anybody want a free 980+ DPS 2 handed Staff ?  Perhaps new lv60 wizards ?
