Can some1 answer me, wut is means "black weapon"?

It's a weapon with no elemental damage added.

oh, I got it http://www.diablofan...de/#blackweapon

Yeah... I thought about adding a link to every mentioning of "black weapon", and maybe even to every abbreviation that I use (and there are a lot, due to space being limited)... but... I tried that for a couple of sections and it just makes everything unreadable. And in the end you found it. But for the next revamp I might think about improving readability a bit more.

Thanks, this guide is pretty helpful. I just geared my new 60 wizard with gear that I could afford with the little gold I had.

Thanks, I'm glad it helped!

Yeah... basically as a rule of thumb it's LoH for CMWW and LS for Archon. Looking at your wiz, and considering you play self-found... do you have some IAS rings, amulet, gloves lying around somewhere? You really need higher APS to get the most out of CMWW. I just glanced at your gear, don't have much time right now.

How much: It depends how much EHP and APS you have. If you have high attack speed then WW procs more often, and if you have more EHP you don't lose that much life - which is why less LoH is needed. The bare minimum I think is 300-400, though most people don't go below 600-800 and given your low APS that might be a good goal to aim for, too.

For APS... the easiest way is definitely a Chantodo's with high (up to 1.79) APS. The next best spots are just gloves and jewelry, which is why I asked for if you have some of them. On the other slots it's limited to "certain drops":

• Andariel's or Mempo for helmet (not a good option for you because your Storm Crow is definitely better b/c of LoH and APoC)
• Lacuni's (not a good option because you lose too much EHP)
• Inna's (not a good option because you lose too much EHP)
• Chantodo's offhand (well... rare.)

What you could do is to grab some items (temporary) from your other characters:

• Ring and amulet from your DH
• Ring from your monk
• Witching Hour from your WD
• Possibly even gloves from your monk

Just to try it out... that would raise your APS significantly (and all these items have allres, too, which is nice; the DH's amulet even has LoH).

Try to hit one of the breakpoints. If you can get to 2.51, that would be awesome, and should be enough for most farming efforts, at that point you can start caring about other stats a bit more. (2.73 is the other interesting break point but I think a bit too high self-found, requires lots of compromise).
