I have had my wiz at 70 since the first day of the anniversary patch, so just a little over a week. In that time I have managed to create a build that does VERY well at higher torments, solo or in group play. I can solo T3 rifts in about 10 minutes and T4 in 15. T5/6 is manageable in a group.
I have been lucky with drops but with the buff it has not been hard. Just lots of RIF and Wiz shared loot runs. I am far from done(Need RoRG, frost gloves and another piece of Vyrs) but this build brings tons of CC and steady dmg to into a rift.
I should add that using Black Frost rune is amazing while soloing. Elites just melt when you kill a few whites near them. When playing in a group I would suggest the Snow blast rune for more sustained dmg or cold blooded if you have having issues with AP.
I got the TF last night and am testing it out to see if it out performs my serpent wand with the 2nd hydra.
I know this build is gear specific but it really wasn't that hard to put together. I got so tired of seeing all wiz's go fire/mirrorball or archon that I was determined to play differently.
Hope this helps for those of you that want to play something different.
I have only been working on it for a week so like I said in my post, I still need a few things.
This wasn't a "Look at how amazing my gear is" thread. It was just showing that with a few items there are more options in terms of build that are 100% viable besides just Autoattacking MM or WoW build.
