I'm sure this has been discussed at length but unfortunately I can't find any recent talk about particular elemental builds being better.
My question, is fire really the best element to be using because based on what I am seeing on these forums and other sites is most people talk about fire builds. Am I missing out by being arcane? Any advice?
Arcane > Fire with the exception of Wand of Who build. I think fire woh build is superior to arcane.
Vyrs/tals combo with arcane torrent right now is the most powerful t6 build. Find Odojas profile, look at his wiz. He has <7 minute t6 clears with Archon build using arcane. I have copied his build and atm have only been able to get down to 9 minutes. I have some items that need upgrades bad though.
That is the gist, It is fairly easy guidelines as most T4+ wiz have the gear, but high rolls are important. Either way this build is incredibly efficient. There is NOT a fire build that even compares except for MAYBE a really well geared Who Build, But even then Arcane still wins.

Current one seems to be the best combo all around.
Full Fire: 120% fire damage - MM based = meh..
WoW (check the other wiz on my acc) EB build = just as lame as Full MM based fire. Archon tested here too...meh results.
Current: best dps/survival out of all 3. There are really only a few situations where archon's AoE hits would be better, but MM at 2.10 APS is very, very hard to beat.
Quote fromGiterdun Thanks for posting. I've already switched to fire and even completed my gear around.
good choince. Advice though: throw away the Vyr's pieces as soon as you can craft Cain's , you can thank me after
