Wpn choice: 2h staff (You are blowing your whole AP pool in 3 globals, so you want to hit HARD!)
There are 4 massive dmg modifiers with this build,
Black Ice(Passive) = +20% dmg
Glass Cannon(Passive) = +15%dmg
Familiar (Spark Flint) = +15% dmg
Magic Weapon (Force Weapon) = +20% dmg
Total:
1.15*1.2*1.15*1.2 = 1.9044
190% wpn dmg!!!
The premise of the build is quite simple, open with Blizzard (Start Winter) to slow all mobs within 22 yard radius and activates Black Ice(Passive), and you follow up with 2 Meteor (Comet). If anything somehow manages to survive this insane onslaught, simply mop up with Ray of Frost (Cold Blood).
Pros:
Massive upfront dmg! Comets hit for nearly 600% wpn dmg upfront and another 200% over 3 seconds.
Everything in a huge area should remain slowed.
Good Single target dmg: Ray of frost now pumps out 381% wpn dmg, and its FREE. (lolz signatures)
Cons:
Defense is kinda weak, reliant primarily on slow, but the Templar is there in case anything bad was to occur.

One is never hurt by being given additional choices, only by taking them away. A QUADRILLION MAGIC FIND is worthless if you can't kill shit!
1.9044 is only +90% increased weapon damage, the 1.0 is your original damage.
Plus it might stack additively instead of multiplicatively, which would result in +70% weapon damage.
With this build you will tear through normal, kill bosses in a couple hits, then get to nightmare, hey maybe you'll even clear Skeleton King and then BAM you're going to die a lot. Templar can't be 360 degrees around you and monsters will end up coming at you from all sides. Energy Armor is your only defense and it will maybe save you an extra couple hits.
Hey maybe I'm wrong and you'll get all the way to Act 4 Hell with this, try it out.

Its called a typo, and all my studies on beta showed that unlike sources were multiplicative.
You cant use any of these things in beta....And that comment is dumb....as if aoes dont work in diablo lol.
They almost always come in big clumps.
why do people make threads and then go on the defence when one little bit of criticism is thrown their way.. plus i wouldnt even say what nivius said was critism.. lighten up, you posted so now be prepared for what people think.. you are basically making yourself believe that it will work lmao so whats the point of posting this..

Because I know that 99.9% of people are dumb.

lol sure id love to watch it, thats besides the point cuz i couldnt care less if you're interested, if you're looking for that .1% .. i'd advise you to stfu and not post anything then, cry somewhere else that everyone here doesnt agree with your build, cuz i didnt get the memo, that when jaclashflash post something everyone needs to agree!.. woo yaa right on man your builds fuckin dope, nothing wrong with it at all, you'll faceroll through; normal,nightmare, hell and inferno with that build go back under your bridge you troll

You're right on this part. But!
So far the tooltips go, magicweapon buffs the weaponsdamage. Increasing the basedamage of what all your other modifiers are based on. Magic weapon is prolly one of the best damage modifiers in the game for wizards at the moment if that 20% rune actually works in the way the tooltip makes it seem to work.
The rest of the abilities however, do not stack like that. So you would look at;
weapondamage*1,2 *int% * sumability%
100% * 1,2 * 1,50 = 1.8 (leaving out int)
Why would you sum the other abilities? You cant test this on beta anymore, but glass cannon and magic weapoon were multiplicative at one time. As far as I am concerned, that is far more evidence thatn you have.
Besides, even if you wanted argue its 1.8 instead of 1.9, thats not a huge difference.
EDIT: Also there is a possibility that the 120% DoT on the group is not 120% wpn dmg over 3 seconds, but 120% wpn dmg per cast over cast 3 seconds. I have some doubts about this personally though, but some abilities just don't make sense unless you consider it operating like this. For example, acid rain or grasp of the dead.

i was actually thinking about going for the most + damage build last night, but it seems you lack a lot of utility and oh shit buttons. so not sure if worth it but trying out for fun should be ok.

True that does concern me, but I am pretty sure I can obliterate at least hell with this.

Cold blood reduces the cost of Rof to 12 AP not 0. So your build simply wont work, at least not without replacing RoF with a signature. Then you lose your ability to do single target though...
Teleport safe passage took a huge nerf.... I don't think its work using in PvE anymore.

My place really was here. I was too foolish and stubborn to notice. But, what I truly hoped for then was here. Why do I always realize it When I've already lost it.
Energy Armor + Tank with heals + Massive Slows + Massive Burst
What more do you want?
Edit: Here is an idea. Use Electrocute for trash, and when you need to fight a boss just switch that out for RoF cold blood or snow blast!

But one could get the rune to lower the cost of blizzard to 30.
Also, you should remember that there will be +AP and +AP on crit items in game. Quite a bit at high levels.

Where does it say Blizzard applies a slow to mobs?
Cold dmg always slowed in D2
