I founded a good Grand Vizier and now I'm testing a Firebird+Meteor build but I'm not sure if it's efficient or not. With familiar and magic weapon I have around 900k sheet dps and like 1.8kk fire dps considering meteor damage bonus.
Is there any better build could be made with my equip? I also have a magefist with 20% roll, firebird offhand, maximus, and devastator with same numbers.
Also, a little question: how does firebird 6pc proc work? Does it trigger when I deal more than 3000% weapon damage in 3 seconds or it works some other way?
not worth it. for meteor build, its better to use smoldering core + cindercoat, this is very usefull in both solo and grp play. because all the trash monsters do nothing, they try to catch meteors. so theres only the elites left. this is in my opinion the best build for a 4man party. while you perma CC all trash mobs, the other 3 guys can focus on the elites. its rly crazy
Ooooor you could just kill the small mobs by casting twice as many meteors with a grand vizier
Reducing the initial cost of star pact gives you an additional 400% weapon damage on each meteor cast. Sounds quite relevant to me. Isn't the idea of starpact to use arcane dynamo and an AP generating signature spell rather than spamming it every attack?

I believe Zero was saying Star Pact is NOT affected by -resource cost items; they ran tests or something on the official forums. If you see him, corner him and get the link ;-)
I dunno about the rest of you but I like Vizier for fire builds and they work quite well in T6. I use the no rune meteor with blizzard-apocalypse and BH-Blazar. BH pulls mobs so no need for smoldering core as log as you have decent CDR. Apo blankets everything an keeps the Firebird DoT ramping up. Slot in Arcanot and astral presence and your regen lets you spam meteor and blizzard all over the place. Combine that with Blur and Dominance and teleport-safe passage for a little tankyness to make up for immobility.
You can use the tal belt and ammy w/ RoRG for extra AP regen and slot Magefists for the extra DPS. Or you can go with Cindercoat and use Blackthornes belt /ammy for extra toughness and damage to elites. That's what I'm playing around with right now, what gear to slot for most efficiency.
I think it's tons of fun too. Calling down loads of giants rocks to crash into baddies. It's really satisfying, plus it ramps up the DoT wicked fast so you can run past.
