i want to build an ice wizard becouse of wizard is ranged hero so if he/she has enough place to hit , will kill everything..

here is the ice ice baby..
i reduce cost of ray of frost so i cant use much arcane power when i chilled or sth like that
another skill is wave of frost and i use %40 chance becouse its a huge chance ratio
and i use 2 aoe skill becouse of boss and mobs may summon creatures so i killed them easily
My safety skill is teleportation and i summon 2 decoys
And the last one is archon i increased all damages of it

My passives are black ice ofc , temporal flux and evocation

What if in a party?
Slow time , blizzard and meteor those are wizard usual aoe damage types , are we sacrifice them?
Or how we combine them?

I hope i never forgot Arcane wiz its an amazing skill btw , i think its a unique form of wizard , not a type..

4 wizard in a party , i dont know maybe good at pvm becouse of aoe damages btw not good at bosses or some high lvl monsters needs tank.

Why parties search for 2 wizard?one wizard isnt enough?becouse of why?ice and fire?

i search wizard about 4-5 days , i read many forums and i want to discuss whit you . However they changed many things and they will changed many of too but i want to discuss basic principles of wizard.

My first hypothesis ; i saw 3 types of wizards played or searched games.

1-fire 2-ice 3-lightning

At DiabloIII similiar thing happen , eventually we must chose one of them ,
On the other hand every type changes whit one skill and one rune.


As you know fire have more damage , ice ( frost ) have slow abilities , lightning have chain and stunning.

The real question is if we combine them , will it be successful or epic failure?

I try it at the other games , but i dont say i m the hot shot, maybe i'm weak or system gives you just one oppurtunity to become a master..

U may be a warrior but will you be a hero? ( whit your unique abilities )

any suggestions?

I think this should work, but no gameplay experience ;I

can you give me a tip why you choose magic missle , frost nova and energy armor?

i havent got any game experience as like you btw , i compare it in to my mind and i'd rather ray of light instead of frost nova and diamond skin for energy armor..
i dont ask you my choices are the best yours sux, i just want to know why..becouse all we got is discuss

about teleport - don't know, only for melee wizard or just like a self-survival skill using only

yeah i think the same , its just for survive or to cool down your skills ,otherwise lots of wizards get stucked

its awsome agressive build , if i start to play i use something like that whit little changes..
what do u think about teleport fracture , isnt that be useful 2 mirror images when u teleported , i hope to use it as an escape plan so i guess i need mirror images..
and how about archons arcane destruction gives %520 weapon damage , 15 yard , i think i got familiar sparkflint so some high damage will be more useful..

i m not sure what will happen after rune system closed

Of course its not the best option being very aggressive at inferno, i never meaned that.I think inferno is about as which skills we take as how we use them , blizzard always balanced their games for each races , and i hope there is always a way to survive at inferno ^^

If we dont balance our attack power and defense skills it causes many problem , if a wizard wants to be a "tank" it is just a day dream i meaned this in my first message.

i think archon , meteor and teleport skills are imba.

i prefer Ray of Frost Golden - Cold Blood becouse of Reduce casting cost to 0 Arcane Power per second..Thast is amazing skill whitout arcane power

İn my oppinion good attack is the best way of the defense , so many defensive skills just give you suffer if your race is wizard...You got aoe and pretty high dps options and you chose defensive skills , is that realisctic? : )
i dont think so ^^
