Jump ship? never man..

I just want smth different once in a while.

So? what do i need? expensive or not play a cm wiz?
*
sell off dh items then u don have to worry bout costs brows.gif

kidding, every build for all chars is xpensive. playing a cm wiz ur dps will take a hit as there are alot of micro managing todo as below:

CC, IAS, AR, ARMOR. CHD is a bonus not a necessity to make the build work.

u can gain more chd for the xtra juice from TWH, trifect 1x amy + 2x ring, glove
socket chant wand or double speed chant wand is up to u.

single target locking is not as efficient anymore if u r running 1 APOC source

will need atleast 2 apoc source.

im still pissy that blizz made tal rasha helm a wizard helm doesnt come with apoc.
diminishing effect of energy armor and glass canon.

feels like a handicapped match

Stim la......my Tal Rasha helm damn solid liao.

If i want another AP source i have to sacrifice my chantodo orb, and get a chantodo orb with APOC. That said, i have to sacrifice 8% life. mafakaaaa. My EHP already macam taik liao.

Anyway, Followers skill cannot reset meh? cry.gif

Come to think of it, Scoundrel Histeria skill is quite good mayn.
*
i suggest u use a stormcrow 4.5cc, 6cc is overpriced

to makeup for ur hp loss, craft vit shoulders/bracers

then u can continue using ur non APOC chant source, chant apoc source is manyak skyhigh price

actually with your current aspd which is high incase you didnt notice, your CC is kinda suffice for perma frost build, why dont use storm armor (the last rune skills)?
*
haha i wish i could perma use shocking aspect also drool.gif
can die easily as current gear doesnt have enough armor + ar


i only use prismatic/pinpoint for high MP n uber, SA for low-mid mp

I believe its gonna be like:

Our ribena kena enemies but our allies killed them instead; we would still have increase in archon up time.

So our ribena just kena siram semua mob hahahahahaha. kill or not, we get to maintain our archon mode ^^.

Now to increase damage sad.gif miserable 260K DPS. Time to start crafting new glove, bracer and shoulder.

i'm having problems with affixes such as electrified, plague. any tips?

i realize blackthrone is much better than inna's. yes? no?
*
thats cos u r using time bubble

it slows all the electrified and lump them into 1 and u will get hit like a truck, (imagine u in da middle of 3-4 eletrified pack and u hit them many times with ET+EB = they release more electric bolts!

time bubble makes u take more dmg from electrified, mortar, and all those projectiles

dont use time bubble, especially in uber (SK+Maghda), substitute it with something else,

i personally use telepot cos i cant dps/contribute to the team wen im dead brows.gif


and secondary factor is how much AR u have now.

Hi Guys,

http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/SwSw-2890/hero/11450608

I got a few questions to ask.

1. How does Diamond Shard works? It says when it wears off it explodes right? so does that mean repeated casting it gives you the stackable damage?

2. I know Blizzard won't stack so meteor is a better build? I was trying blizzard build instead of DS and 510% over 6 seconds seems pretty crappy to me and if the duration is extended by my source, how does it work then?

3. Some elites can be perma freeze some can't. No idea why.
*
D Shard adds to ur Edps and doesnt show on Pdps eg Shocking aspect.
no it doesnt stack, u have to keep casting (DShard 1 cast = 1 hit, chain reaction stackable = 1 cast = 3 hit)

use Meteor instead of blizzard as it hits harder, but u cant spam much as it is costly unless u are hitting big mobs)

xtra fast Es can escape or use their skills as even a slight delay in freezing them is enough

telepothead Es oso can escape if there is a dlay in ur freezing

your ingame ping ms oso have effect on freezing efficiency (make sure its green bar not yellow/red)

Okay.

I got few more questions.

Diamond Shards
- the tool tips says when the skin wears off, shards explodes in all direction right?
- so my question is: On first cast, before it wears off, if I get to cast again, does the second cast make the first cast wears off thus dealing damage? As in does the second cast trigger the shards of the first cast to explode before the time is up or 10853 damage is being absorbed?

Chain Reaction
- tool tip says have a 1.5sec delay before it goes off.
- so my question is: If I first cast Chain Reaction and before 1.5s is up (before first initial explosion), I get to second cast Chain Reaction again. Does this mean that the first cast won't be overwrote by the second cast?
- Does it work like a queue where by each cast is being lined up in and the smaller the gap between the first and second cast, the better the damage you get. Is my understanding correct here?

Thanks fellow CM Wiz!!!
*
DShard will xplode even b4 the time is up if u recast, if u r hit by mobs after the 1st cast xplodes and before the 2nd cast then it will not absorb incoming dmg.

Chain reaction is highly stackable, the answer to ur Q is if u recast twice before the 1st xplodes it stacks like lining up in a queue. u can test this out by just using WW + EB only, without frost nova n DSkin to save up more AP to cast/test EB on white mobs especially big white mobs.

I do it too wen im lazy to freeze and thrash cant kill me so no DSkin either and repeated cast of EB makes it looks like a machine gun going off.

Trifecta!!!! But is hard to hunt a 8/9As one.

Yeah wanna replace amulet n gloves but both have tons of eHP with it. Was hoping the 3p Zuni bonus AR can remove AR on gloves or amulet.

How u guys cover EhP lost if wanna increase DPS?

Damn hard to gear the wiz. I want gloom with wiz.
*
haha i oso dont have trifec leg rings. true playing cm wiz is very hard to gear cos alot of micro managing
damn high speed + cc is mandatory.

well, myself is using poormans gear so i rely alot on LOH + try to anticipate what would happen eg frozen + vortex + plague Es (hence Telepot is essential, as we cant always rely on move speed to get out of trouble and to jump in to freeze b4 the E can use their skill)

I will always try to freeze Es as tighly packed & as fast as i can cos i dun want those Es to use their skills (especially: frozen), but plague/motlen/ arcane is ok cos LOH can fill my hp globe but i get disrupted wen there r someone in the party with knockback skill.


most cm wiz cant afford so just have to put up with watever gear they have + much lower ehp than u.
I ony have 600+ AR, im sure by know u have more AR than me.

Ur gear is already damn impressive as u have high hp + high dps + high armor even without energy armor) but ur amy should be the easiest to upgrade as it can give u additional CD (80% >) brows.gif (crafting 1 would be gud if u are not in a hurry brows.gif )

how much LOH is recommended? I have 700 but it feels slow or maybe i'm doing it wrongly.

I hate frozen too and my LOH don't seem to be able to sustain me standing in plague or desecrator.

I wanted to gear like moba initially where you ditch EHP and go 3.01 APS but then i didn't cuz learn inna pants looks ugly, better not cuz i'm basically standing in their face and zuni armor and boots on wiz looks so cool.

Yeah is a love hate rship with monks. Love them for their mantra hate them for FoT knocback.

Amulet? very hard la. take my time and thanks for your advice!
*
im using inna pants, yea damn ugly but i use vanish potion so i can see her smexy thighs. brows.gif

700LOH is adequate, any higher is a bonus. u can pop some ET on far away white mobs to gain additional LOH unless u r toking bout single target.
