Hello Again!
I wanted to share the level 70 starter build I have been using on my Season 4 wizard. I have not seen many starter builds on here and i figured well why not. I know we all care the most about high end greater rifts but I also like to be useful in the new level 70 games and not simply be a leech. The goal here is for me to share with anyone else out there who wants to either run solo fresh at 70 or have a decent build to run in a group with.
Gear:
Nothing Special
If you have some decent legendarys from leveling feel free to keep them otherwise make all the lvl 70 armor you can at the blacksmith.
Play Style:
Cast Black hole to group mobs
Channel arcane torrent
rinse and repeat
Use teleport to get around faster or to get out of trouble
don't waste time on single mobs, group a pack and then move on when 1-2 are left

i think this is a nice idea. i would love to see one of these for each class. it can help tremendously in the early season, and even when gearing a new character. +1
Decent looking set up you have there. I did a similar build when i just hit 70 but I used Blizzard with the 100% freeze rune instead of Arcane Torrent. Worked well for me. Good luck with your character during the season.
Nice build, though I would swap out Astral Presence for Glass Cannon and also swap Magic Weapon - Force Weapon for Magic Weapon - Conduit.
You are a bit more squishy like that (though being pretty tough through both Blur and Dominance), but you'll do more damage. If you happen to run out of arcane power to fast, you could also swap out Storm Armor - Shocking Aspect for Storm Armor - Power of the Storm.
I was looking for something different that will be effective until I gather gear sets, and this works great. Thanks!
