Build Guide

Hey guys! I wanna present the build I´m using for GR+50 in a standard team (2DPS+Sader+WD).

The main base of the build is DMO + Triumvirate to spam Arcane Orb (AO) for about 3-4 billion dmg every cast. WIth Power Hungry and Reaper´s Wraps and all the RCR this gear provides, you will be able to spam a lot AO, thanks to the Healing Orbs your ZDPS´s provide.

For weapons, I have a legacy GoO with 68% + Arcane Dmg. I was using an ancient Sunkeeper but I tested once GoO and couldn´t go back. The attack speed difference between both weapons (1.2 vs 1.4) and the extra CDR for Slow Time really makes more confortable using GoO.

In the amulet slot you can equip anything you want, probably an immunity one is an excellent choice. Even a HF if you are lucky enough.

Stack as much +Arcane Orb damage% in your gear (Helm, feet and off hand) and Arcane Damage% (bracer/amulet/weapon) as you can since you will have ZDPS supporting you.

It is not hard to maintain the buffs (Trium and F+R) for max dmg output. However, using Obliteration as the rune for AO makes a bit complicated at first, becase you gotta learn to position yourself so the Orb hits directly the target. This rune has a small AoE (8 yards barely) but when you have a WD/Sader in your team, you won´t have any problems clearing mobs. Be careful when there are elevations in the terrain! It´s easy for the orb to hit undesired things.

Here´s a link for the profile of my wiz using this build: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Caleb-1982/hero/20291781

I´ll respond any doubts or commentaries! Add me too if you wanna see the build in-game!
