Now we should expect Skill Calculator contest in next few days since it got updated by blizz.
So it is expected from us to show you good builds so we can win over some beta keys. There we got a problem at least i do, for the past few hours i am on skill calculator and i cant seem to make 1 good build ether it is spell or rune stone that aint well explained or not rly sure of how would it work ingame or not enough info and for example idk all dmg goes from wpn % what is the hp of the mobs so we can know something as simple as how much wpn dmg we need to kill em (for example he got 1k hp and u got wep that does 100dps u need somethni that does 1000% of wpn dmg in combination to kill creep). So its god damn hard to make deacent build cos u have to guess on a lot places in making that build cos u cant test it or get any info on it.
Now idk if i am the only one with this issue but i dont seem to make any good build acept fun made ones that aint that effective to begin with like mele wizz or archon build.
I would like to hear other ppls toughts on this so i can find out maybe way to deal with this and thanks for reading all of this. Here is 1 build that i made that is deacent
my mele build: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/wizard#dhYXjO!fbg!YcYccc
from gear u should be focused the most on crit cos if u crit enough u will have your defense a lot and a lot more dmg then if u were going for raw dmg, u could switch evocation for blur but that gota be tested. Explosive blast i am not sure if it is good energy dump but it goes well with other skills here. Maybe change rune on Diamond skin to reflect dmg depending on what does more dmg explosion or reflect (again have to test run some numbers). Now there is a lot more variable change in this build but i dont wana bother you with all of my toughts on fun build
Dude(/dudette) it's not that deep. Everything is speculation at this point. What we're looking for is something that is well thought-out and that is backed by some explanation. Obviously we're not looking for super duper details, but as long as you put in a good effort and we see that you have a plausible build, you've got a shot!
As for your build: I don't understand why you have a melee Wiz with teleport. I mean, you don't need to be running away from enemies since you're melee. (unless you just get teleport by default).
well if u see rune that i got it does dmg as a mele u got big problem if u are slowed snared or anything else so that u can close your distance on ranged or if u dont have problem with it just to dmg it.
U charge mobs by (biger packs) diamond skin>>>teleport>>>explosive blast (u are safe from all dmg so u can free cast EB)>>>nova( diamond skin is gona run out so u are about to get raped)>>>spectral blade (now u have crit from nova diamond skin runs out and explodes u did dmg with teleport explosive blast is kiking in) then u do spectral again and then re aply explosive blast (at this point i expect em to be long dead) if not u should be having nova up soon to freeze mofos if u are in truble or if someone ran teleport is on cd
naa he said it they want some build that we tought of ...we spent some time on it that it got good explanation it is not maybe most viable but its playable and you are in contest. Thats at least what i got from the thing he said. Not sure if i got all right tho.
I'm not saying it has to be a great build - if we see a build that makes us go "Hey, that looks like a pretty cool build" or "Wow, I couldn't have come up with that" you might be on to something. I'm not at all saying it will guarantee you get a key. I'm saying be creative. The point of the contest is get the community involved.
Well we are trying me at least....spending a lot of time on damn calculator.
Now i wana know if we can post only 1 build or few ( i guess 1 cos there gona be shit loads of posts u cant chek all of em would take time) since idk what to post, one more thing do we need good build to enter draw contest or good build gets key or top XX best builds get key?
And do u think my fun build is well tought of something inovative ?
Well as u can see my english ait best but what i wana know is
1. if we can post 1 build or multiple?
2. good builds enter drawing part or good builds get keys?
3. what are your toughts on my bild?
Well this is probably the weakest build I've seen.
Still it looks like nearly everything has been nerfed for a wizard....
Wow probably the weakest... can u please tell me what u see wrong here idk where is it weak. Ok its mele wizz ofc it aint best build its something to have some fun but i think its viable not sure about inferno but damn sure u can play hell with it maybe few changes but thats on rune part since we are not sure how all the things would play, only skills i would change is maybe blizzard expect for explosive blast since idk how much dmg does it do is it any good.
I would love to see your builds for wizard since u got so much batter ones.
I'm not entirely sure why your passives are focusing on reducing cooldowns. If it's because of Diamond Skin, I don't think it's worth it (15 seconds is long regardless of a couple seconds). Explosive Blast only has a cooldown of 1 second so that can't be the reason.
well u got 4 cds spells 1 up all the time and 1 that got no cd and no ap usage u want to finsih those cds of teleport nova and diamond skin not that much explosive blast but fuck if it loweres cd for 1 sec and u use it again and blasts stack it would be DAMN AWSOME if not u need nova and Diamond skin as def abilities and teleport both def and off. As we did agree its no testing on it so we aint sure how would it play out but thats my toughts behinde it. But if u didnt have cds lowered but other passives after like 5-6 sec u would be in truble if u dont kill em cos no def shit and u are a wizard = u dead i hope
evocation on nova gives u nova cd of 10.1 u hit at least 30+ times u must get like 4-5 sec off cos of crit (main stat) that cd that make u use combo again

We'll have full details on the contest when we get closer to it.

Oh yeah, I guess it would make more sense to read the entire post.
Mmmm. That's some good foot.
I would love to see your builds for wizard since u got so much batter ones.
PS: if u are trolling GTFO
ok fair enough.
but u still didnt tell me how do you like my build i think its awsome tho i realy do
Also, I find that Magic Weapon has better synergy with Spectral Blade.
(notice the badass tooltips)
