I'm going to try a "Fires of Heaven" build after work today, i didn't realize all 3 beams can hit 1 target.. usingFate of the Fell - Game Guide - Diablo III

Build:Crusader - Game Guide - Diablo III

Stacking %holy damage, % heaven's fury damage and crit/crit damage it should, if i'm directly infront of a mob hit with all 3 beams, do about 40-60m a pop since each beam should do 10-20m a piece depending on how much %holy damage and heaven's fury i can get...

Provoke is primarily used for wrath generation, the rune for law of valor is to allow the skill to be spammed more, and rally is obviously used to reduce the cooldown on provoke/law to be able to spam it even more.

I might drop an ability for hammers just for clearing trash, but i'm not sure which one i'd be willing to sacrifice yet :\

Unfortunately it's entirely based around having that weapon.. but at least i have it already lol.

Nope you'll feel that way forever. The wiz can outtank and outdamage a barb (and pretty much everyone) at max level as well.

Just because Wizards are obviously OP doesn't mean Barbs are a wet noodle or anything

Explain the tanking part.

Yeah I was about to say that

My wizard is a beast across the screen but explodes into little pieces when a elite as much as touches a strand of her hair

But that's the consequences of being a glass cannon

Im playing a tanky melee archon wizard atm. I can face plant myself against elites in up to torment 4 with little regard to their damage output, and my gear is far from perfect. 20m toughness, with most of it in resist all and armor gets really sick.

I thought he is playing Path of Exile now?

Nah he is back to Diablo 3 and he is solo farming Torment 4 rifts and making it look like Normal difficulty, and I have seen him solo T6 rifts, but it is not efficient yet. Probably the only Diablo stream I can stand watching because he doesn't fucking go on about donations and he isn't annoying.

Barbs have always been very gear dependent. Possibly the most gear dependent in the game. Even pre-2.0 you needed high end gear to make Sprint/WW work. It is just you could get this high end gear for dirt cheap thanks to the AH. I don't feel underpowered at all playing through on T2. I could probably do T3 but, honestly, I find just facerolling T1 to be the best.

He does use the 1 hour empower shrine to max effect keep in mind, but frankly so does everyone with those gloves. He gets 30 second Wrath of Bersekrer CD, its the build Kongor stole and tried to say he innovated. Anyways its an entertaining stream even if you are not a fan, learned a fair bit about efficiency watching him go.

I'm only 43 but if my Wiz has Frost Nova with Cold snap it's a 3 second freeze every 7.5 seconds, plus Ice Armor that freezes anything that hits me, I dont get hit much before it's deadified. Blur Passive for a straight 17% damage reduction, Galvanizing Ward for bubble, and stack heal on hit with AE damage. Oh and Archon for the bosses/elites.

I should also note that I only play my Barb with 2 other people so the stuff is generally harder. So that might be a lot of it too. We still tear it up it's just my Barb feels eh.

Changed up my WD build last night, and it's working out pretty well. Not sure how to link my profile, but I use Zombie Bears, and Spirit Barrage as my 2 left/right clicks. Piranhas with Tornado rune is amazing to clump mobs up for Zombie Bears to destroy them.

Edit: Also, last night was only my second night putting in a couple hours, and went from 66 to 70, and got some major upgrades. 118k paperdoll DPS to 350k. Toughness went up about 1.5 million as well. T1 elite packs, and rares are still difficult for me, as I learned trying to do some adventure mode solo.

While my new build I mentioned does a lot of damage, Zombie Bears just feels so clunky. It doesn't change direction very easily, and takes so long to start up going.

That's why I like Spirit Barrage, because of it's range, and just feels so much more agile.

Not sure what else would help. Maybe try out vampiric bats again since I've gotten some major upgrades.

I'm using vampire bats with firebats (which makes it nice), and dogs and Garg help round up mobs for it's use.

I was at about 450k paper doll and 2.5m toughness (I think) before swapping some stuff and changing offhands (and moving fetish army to right click instead of zombie wall and keeping spirit walk on 1st hotbar slot) to drop to 400k paper doll and increase to almost 4m toughness. The drop in life regen sort of hurt (and I miss the 30yd pick up radius) but I do survive more with spirit walk.

I thought those gloves got changed to 10mins instead?
Click to expand...
They're bugged and some shrines still last 60mins. That and shard of hate are probably getting nerfed whenever they patch(shard of hate just getting like a 1-2secs cooldown or some shit). Even at 10mins the shrine gloves are pretty OP, mostly the ressource shrine is what breaks them, it gives massive cdr and ressource generation so you can make a lot of weird builds more viable than they would be without.

Mother of fuck that is some godly gear

Is there a reason he has sword and board passive that I'm missing?

Just a note on Alkaizer, he's currently using a very broken item, Shard of Hate. The proc description is wrong, it procs 100% of the time. That's every "tick" of WW, if you use the Wind Shear rune, spits out 3 250% charged bolts in the direction you're spinning. No ICD, possibly affected by +lightning%(unlike most other procs), and might even have a proc coefficient. Oh, and it will proc for either hand hits, even if you don't swing SoH(the description should imply that, but it's rare for a weapon to not be "Chance on Hit" instead of "on activation").

It's like Thunderfury on super steroids. It's OP as fuck and don't be surprised if it's fixed soon.

No idea why he's using Sword and Board.

Krassus can probably explain but I think he was using Teleport with Safe Passage to effectively tank ubers on T5 for us pre-expansion. This might not be viable anymore but might explain the tanking ability of a Wizard.
