Mmm, never liked the double Unity immortal follower "trick." Feels like a total cop-out in terms of proper gearing, but to each their own, I guess. Opens up some doors to more glass cannon gearing.
this build is not really glass cannon, most of my gear have high vit/high % life armor and res and nice dps/ele roll thats why i do good dmg and have good toughness at the same time
you can totally go super tanky with nice dmg so i don't think is a glass cannon build i only make it glass cannon for myself because i know my limit and how to toon my wiz to the point that i do so much dmg that it looks like glass cannon but yea like i say not really a glass cannon build is more like a tanky T6 build with the right elemental dmg and dps sheet ammount
if unity was a trick blizzard must have nerf it long ago, therefore i think is just for endgame solo and when tier rift is out you will need it for solo
also if u look at my profile details page on the unwavering stats you can see it balance out dmg/res/armor/elite bonus/life and so on
or here you can this my old spec when i did this build but like i say im tooning my wiz cuz i know how well it can handle to the point i can do dmg and rarely dies in T6 (glass cannon just for me for player that are doing this build u can do tanky or if u feel u need that glass cannon build u are welcome to change skill/passive around and test ur wiz till it makes u feel like its good)
p.s i tried everything from gear to passive i know my limits and play style that's why i choose these passive and runes for myself u don't have to do the same... i just feel conformable playing with this set up because trust me i know my own build and i got all the gear to test...anyways for u or whoever that try this build out , u can play and pick skills and passive that makes u feel comfortable tanky and fun for yourself and once u get to the point where u think u don't need this skill or that passive and so on you will understand your limits and will change your skill and passive around to gain more fun and that dps you wanted or that tankiness you needed.
i know these video have easy monster and doesn't prove how good this build is(boring for most people) but trust me i play with the most deadly monster in rifts and i can tell you this i have never died again (with prismatic armor and unwavering stance) since using this build, you can believe me or think im a noob liar but all i can say is try the build and find out for yourself if you really want to T6 without dying and have that DPS power that makes u feel powerful as a wizard
have you ever tried slow time - stretch time in replace of black hole?
yea i tried it not fan of slow time since my cdr is bad but however for you or any 1 doing this guide u can change ur passive and skill to the point where you feel comfortable/fit your playstyle
Try Double hydra build, you will love it. At least I did cos despite it is no writen Mamoth Hydra stack their river of flames and you will see like 50-60M per thick on bosses and also because it is burn effect it will keep conflaguration on MM fresh. it is also mitigate the problem with wallers cos Hydras don't care about them and are powerfull enough to kill elite on their own. At least this was my problem this MM-MB work perfect till wallers.
ty noted, many ppl told me to try 2 hydra they say is really good for my build too but sad thing is i don't have the weapon to try it but i will try that out for sure when i get my hands on it
google337, If youtry Serpent with 2xMamoth Hydras you will save 20-30secs.
Accourding to toughness it is useless in HC if you can kill fast enough. You can activly dodge most of the dmg which is enough in most cases. If you want to feel the aspect of death go for HC. I am there and the thing are little bit diffrent I have 10m thoughness but more than 2k AR and I play with defensive passives and the result is that my MM do 5m per elite,never play on T6(except some concentratedattemps)no matter that I have better gear:).
i love to try hc but im not good enough to play hc cuz i know i will end up dying so ill stick with sc for now and yea i think this build is best for softcore due to the item/gear choice u can die if u are not careful with this guide
forget the naysayers I found your set of items to be cool,
Gona try this but I will still use RORG to get stormgarde bracers.
Just to add that I think this build is mostly focused for solo,
yea strong arm and rorg works good on groups i made a reason why i use that last week but i remove it because alot of people think mm is not good for gorups so i just remove it and make this build entirely solo
with rorg and strong arm bracer is strong in groups ur on the right track ^^
but if u solo i highly recommend u use strong arm bracer chest and shoulder to get that elite bonus because soj and unity give u alot of elite bonus dmg is really better then strong arm in solo...i tested everything for this build whatever i said i the turth and just trying to be helpful but u can test it for ur self
is conflagration passive important for this build?
and why not take unwavering will over audacity? you don't want mobs to get close anyway so most of the time you're be out of the 15 yards limit.
i post a reply but i will post your answer i tested with us but i know how tanky and how fast or slow i die therefore i want that dmg to kill and to feel powerful i dont need us to survive..i want to get close and kill fast because i do so much dmg and my toughness is very good with out us
and now im using pinpoint barrier instead of prismatic armor because like i say i know i can handle T6 without having us and yea i got good hp and toughness and alot of dmg clear thigns up very fast like in those videos "pinpoint barrier build"
i tried everything u guys posted i know my limits and play style thats why i choose these passive and runes for myself u dont have to do the same... what you just say and wat every 1 posted make alot of sense and i did try strong arm i just feel conformable playing with this set up because trust me i know my own build and i got all the gear to test...anyways for u that try this build out , u can play and pick skills and passive that makes u feel comfortable and once u get to the point where u think u dont need this skill of that passive you will understand your limits and will change thing around such as either gain more dmg or gain more tanky to the point where your play-style really fits u
i just think the game is broken to the point where the only arcane power spenders we have are for buffing ourselves every 10 minutes
blackhole should cost triple, 60 ap
wormhole with a free cost of no ap boggles me
i'm looking forward to the next patch where blizzard does some serious class balancing
if you really want to be a badass then don't use mirrorball like the top wizards in the world...they all use firebird's eye
not trying to be a badass just showing how you can solo T6 with the right item and hp and toughness
why would i do like most of the #1 wiz on d3progress? those guys are just sacking dps item did you even see their profile wtf? 100k hp and 1mil toughness can you tell me what they doing besides farming low torment or just for show and be a dps epeen bragger? i can do the same but that's just retarded to do
and yea i can do like the top wiz and stack all dps but if you are smart enough to realize that they can't play T6 because they only have 100khp and 1mil toughness
there's a 9 page thread already listed in this very forum, open your eyes
im looking at the 9 pages mm/achon build...you mean that one correct?
well ill try to open my eyes bigger to see if there is any build similar to mine because clearly that build iscompletely different from this build and this build i stated you can play without a unity there is also a video that i play with no unity.. do you see me stacking CDR? do you see me use archon? guess not right? did you compare my detail stats page vs that build? this build focus on all dps and elite dmg/crit dmg/armor resistant not cdr and rorg vrys set
what does this build do for you?
This build is pure DPS Sheet+Fire Elemental Dmg build
Build Core : Super Tanky & great bonus damage for Vs Elite and very high elemental fire dmg overall.
Elemental Exposure Passive is a must for solo : how to get all 4 elemental exposure Equip your follower with azurewarth (cold) moonlight ward (arcane yes it does work on your follower) for lighting you can use a TF or use black hole super massive and of course mm is fire
Can i use cindercoat instead of aughild's chest armor? Yes you can if you think you don't need that extra 590+ armor then yes feel free to use cindercoat
p.s i have tested augh vs cindercoat it is very hard to compare so its your choice just use whatever you like i don't think there is a big different in killing white mobs or elite besides getting the 15% reduce bonus from elite if you use augh chest
Easily obtain crafted item : such as cain set and augh set and also no need for witching hour & RORG ring
no witching hour & no RORG ring? no problem u can easily craft one of this belt and get 15%mm i tested this belt vs my witching hour and i have to say the 15%mm bonus is really good and u can also craft one with 7ias!! http://i.imgur.com/nO350dU.jpg (fleeting strap belt with 15%mm)
Item Requirement
(can just copy my item in my profile for best end game gear for this build) Magefist
Andies
Cindercoat
Cain's Pants&boots
Any high DPS weapon (prefer Sankis or a 2.3kdps TF)
Fire Soj
Aughild : Chest,Bracer,Shoulders
Belt : Fleeting Strap or WH or Harrington
Offhand : Mirror ball with 10CC
Any high CC/CD ammy with IAS or Fire is ok
2 Unity 1 for your follower and 1 for you
why don't i use archon with this build?
i do have a full archon set that can goes in this build but the reason i don't use it because i would rather stack fire elemental get that maximum elemental dps..also archon require too much CDR on most of the item, so i rather lose those cdr and focus on ias and more dps also i can get res or armor (like my shoulders)
a good example is the andies (helm) that i got i do not need a socket one because first of all mm requires alot of ias to be good and 2nd andies is really hard to find a socket+fire+cc..so if i even go archon its impossible to find the right helm and i hate losing the ias or cc just to get a socket in if i do find the right helm..and u are force to get evocation on your passive
so yea i tested archon i just feel more powerful with this current set up atm..so no need for archon
T6 magic missle build : stack ias/ele fire/armor and all dps passive/skill
why do this build work with unity+soj better then RORG+soj?
1. unity give u 15% elite dmg just like the 3 set aughi
2. if u play solo unity+unity on follower is already amazingly tanky
3. im just sick of farming a trifecta rorog so yea this is the best ring combo for this build
any 1 doing this build that have soj and 2 unity u can test it for ur self u dont really need rorg for the setup.
What is the lost for not using rorg? the only lost for not using the rorg ring for this set up is just the 3rd bonus stat from cains set which is 50% mf and 50% experience..
Paragon Points core: 50/50 movement and all to int
offense : 50/50 ias 50/50cd 40/50cc
defense : 43/50 life 50/50 armor 50/50 res
utility : 50/50 area dmg 50/50 life on hit 39/50 gold find
p.s i tried everything from gear to passive i know my limits and play style that's why i choose these passive and runes for myself u don't have to do the same... i just feel conformable playing with this set up because trust me i know my own build and i got all the gear to test...anyways for u or whoever that try this build out , u can play and pick skills and passive that makes u feel comfortable tanky and fun for yourself and once u get to the point where u think u don't need this skill or that passive and so on you will understand your limits and will change your skill and passive around to gain more fun and that dps you wanted or that tankiness you needed.

So how does the build work without the Unity? How does it work in party play or is it solo only?
Group play is always going to be more efficient, so what role does this build play then?
title says this build is for solo, i know group is faster and more efficient but the reason i made this build because i enjoy playing solo and not with other people, so this build role is to let player that don't like to group can enjoy farming solo T6
So..Yes this build can play in groups too here is a video of group play http://www.twitch.tv/google337/c/4411001
(use a cindercoat and replace unity with a rorg & if you go back to solo just replace the rorg to a unity)
important look at picture below : if you choose to play without a unity then you can use a cindercoat and a rorg+soj works well with farming torment 6 solo/party but if you want to make sure you don't die for solo then yea go unity+soj
you can totally go super tanky with nice dmg so i don't think is a glass cannon build i only make it glass cannon for myself because i know my limit and how to toon my wiz to the point that i do so much dmg that it looks like glass cannon but yea like i say not really a glass cannon build is more like a tanky T6 build with the right elemental dmg and dps sheet ammount
if unity was a trick blizzard must have nerf it long ago, therefore i think is just for endgame solo and when tier rift is out you will need it for solo
also if u look at my profile details page on the unwavering stats you can see it balance out dmg/res/armor/elite bonus/life and so on
or here you can this my old spec when i did this build but like i say im tooning my wiz cuz i know how well it can handle to the point i can do dmg and rarely dies in T6 (glass cannon just for me for player that are doing this build u can do tanky or if u feel u need that glass cannon build u are welcome to change skill/passive around and test ur wiz till it makes u feel like its good)
