season = vyr's
non season = tal'rasha's
that's how the leaderboards are in the PTR atm.

for high group grifts you won't see many wizards but maybe dual hydra f&r wiz with cubed furnace t&t and coe might have the dps for it.

Nice, thanks for info, could these number be wrong because of people testing the new legs/set changes?

let me know if you got the friend request the tag is n.m 6 1831. i dont share my battle tag on the dfans...

Yeah I didn't get any requests.

I've been following other forum posts, looks like it's up in the air whether TR or the new Vyrs is better?

Cool, look forward to running with you!

NA - diab802#1191, cool thanks man! You know a lot about Wizards?

Cool thanks guys! Any good videos explaining the tals build and rotation? I've google'd and watched some but wanted to see if anyone has any better videos. I've never really played Archon before.

I'm talking damage-wise, Palm always just CRUSHED everything. I always felt like I wasn't contributing even though I was equally geared? Just curious.

Appreciate the reply! are either of those builds good for team play? I run with some friends and I know it was hard to keep up with palm monk and DH in FBs.

Been away since S2. Any idea of what the go to build looks like for S4, will it still be Firebird's or do you think this new Archon leg will move it into the top spot for solo or team GRs? To me, I just like playing the best build/spec, I have no preference in playstyle or build.

Thanks!

If taking damage is your problem rather than dealing damage, and you're keeping up a high kill speed, try the dominance passive.

I read that in another recent post and am considering it.

well getting some armor on the shoulders wouldn't hurt, also if you have a string of ears (belt) you'll want to take that and just forget about the 500 vit bonus

and it looks like you messed that soj up a bit, unless it didn't roll fire dmg

I'd lose the bane of the powerful for the efficacious toxin tho

and if you have some better gloves,(without aps) get those and lose the tal's chest for a firebirds chest that has armor on it

in the end, killing stuff faster will make you less in need of survivability (not in the higher tiers but untill 35ish that'll work)

Offense is the best defense !

Yeah I'll roll out the %life on the shoulders for armor. I have not even seen that belt yet but I do have A LOT of HP that I can roll out of. Yeah that SOJ rolled like poop, I don't think it rolled fire so I just rolled it into a socket for the leg gem, unless I should roll it back into %Fire and drop the socket?

I'm working on rolling a cindercoat and offhand right now. I just never have any luck with blood shards.

Thanks for the input!

I play a lot with friends that run a Monk and DH. I feel like I can't keep up. They are not very far ahead of me in gear, it just feels like their crits and overall damage do SO much more.

That's because they do hit for alot more in the same level of gear.

Looks like you have the basics down, know to stack fire%, elite%, CC%, CD% ext...could always have better versions of the gear you already have.

If your goal is to match the clear speed in a group T6 on the level of a Monk or DH, it is simply not currently possible, and to get anywhere close you need end-game gear, and you'll never be able to match them in group greater rifts.

Wizards are currently banking on changes that will come in patch 2.2, at the end of season 2, that have as of yet not be detailed beyond that our sets are being changed.

I really appreciate the feedback, the details of the builds here have really helped me learn what I need, I was just looking for any little tweaks pull some higher numbers without giving up too much survivability.

That sucks to hear we can't keep up with them. I see them run off by themselves in our 4-man group and solo T6+ elites and such. I just can't keep up with that without taking too much damage.

Yeah, i'm considering rerolling a DH just to see how the play is, but we'll see. I really haven't put much time into any other class.

Thanks again!

Hey guys, I am new to the forums and still learning ALL the ropes of D3/Wizards. I would like to get your opinion on what I should change if anything at all. I struggled with a GR28 died about 5 times but was still able to complete it before the timer. I play a lot with friends that run a Monk and DH. I feel like I can't keep up. They are not very far ahead of me in gear, it just feels like their crits and overall damage do SO much more. Anyways, here's my PROFILE

Thanks for the help!
