Are there any builds, write ups on this? I was in the WD forum and saw zDPS and they were talking about no INT, using STR/DEX and there was little reasoning why?
The reason for str/dex, as explained in the thread, is that 500 armor are better than 50 allres because you end up at the 10:1 ratio anyways (you get plenty of allres from paragon, int on Kukri/Tiklandian, diamonds, and allres rolls on items).
zero Because technically, zDPS WD/monk deal almost no DPS. Of course it's not exactly zero, but it's close to zero percent of overall DPS when you have a DH with over a billion eDPS in your back.
Something new to add: I think "BoA" is a term that'll become quite popular in the next few weeks, thanks to the Marquise gems ;-)
Done!
Oh, and off-topic, great all-in-one wizard guide you've got going. I really think it deserves its own thread just because you're the only wizard response in this "Helpful Hints of Sanctuary" competition (every other class have had three or more so far).
Thanks for the update!
And great to see that you like my guide, though I was surprised that there was no other submission. Gonna try to do the necessary updates as 1.07 hits (or earlier) and ask overneathe to move it to its own thread - haven't looked too much into 1.07 myself, yet.
What the... either I'm blind and owe you an apology, or you just trolled me successfully ;-)
Anyways, while you're at it, could you sticky this thread please, too: http://www.diablofans.com/topic/79800-guide-comprehensive-cmww-guide/ - we're referring to that about 5 times a day in the wizard forum. It seems like no mod is reading the wizard forum. Once you handled my request (deny or accept) you may delete this obviously offtopic blurb here, I'm just hijacking the thread ;-)
Holy crap. Does that mean that Blizzard... even... reads this forum? Anyways, gratz Jaetch/Cantor.
Btw, I think almost everyone mistakes username/rank when they come here for the first time. The username should be on top of the avatar, the rank below.
And... seriously, what more does it take to get this thread stickied? Front page of New York Times? Breaking news on CNN?
Bump, because I was looking for this and couldn't find it... is it possible to sticky this? Or if not: Jaetch, can you put something like [Guide], abbreviation(s), acronym(s) in keywords/title? I only found it using Google search... :-)

TL;DR is missing ;-)
