My build http://us.battle.net...aQOm!aXc!bYYZcc

I think my build is better...

I think it doesn't. Too much AP generated and not enough AP spent. Unspent AP is wasted killing power.

Thanks for the input Perma, I was hoping Astral Presence would compensate for the AP side of things from Meteor, and the fact that Comet lasts for awhile meaning I won't need to spam it, maybe Meteor Shower would be smarter as it lasts longer once again.
Come to think of it, merely using AO 3 times taxed my AP pool, so maybe something more along the lines of, taking Cold Blooded and using Ray of Frost with 0 AP use for single target, and changing the rune on Meteor to Star Pact, or possibly considering Energy twister

First Ray of Frost tooltip is bugged, you should read "12AP" and not "0AP". But, this is pure theory though, I guess it's possible to make a signature-less build viable (but not optimal).

Base AP regen is 14AP/s, so if you spam RoF on downtimes your effective AP regen is 2AP/s. Then you took Astral Presence (+2AP/s). Add Storm Armor (Power of the Storm) and you are at 7AP/s effective regen. I guess, if Magic Weapon's effects proc on any spell and not only on melee hits, you could get the Conduit rune for extra AP.

If I should ever consider Energy Twister I guess I'll stick with the Wicked Wind rune (that synergize well with Temporal Flux). Energy Twister's path is too unpredictable so unless you cast it at melee range some of the twisters may never hit anything

I see that you take the super-tanky Energy Armor, do you plan on playing mostly at close/mid range ? If not, you could get rid of your armor spell or take Storm Armor (Power of the Storm) for decreased AP cost.

I think you should get rid of either Magic Weapon or Familiar they deserve the same purpose and I think you lose more having both damage bonuses than having another damage spell.



Here are some ideas :

- Star Pact Meteor + Conflagration can replace Magic Weapon or Familiar, freeing one active skill slot
- if you plan on meleing, Spectral Blades (Healing Blades) + Blur can improve your survivability and gives you a good signature spell to work on
- if you plan on staying at range, forget Energy Armor (Prismatic Armor). You can take Energy Tap rune or Storm Armor or no Armor at all. Diamond Skin (Prism) is also a good skill for ranged Wizard as you can use it both defensively and offensively, depending the difficulty of the pack you engage.

I've always hard time to find solo builds using Meteor fitting my playstyle, so forgive me if I don't suggest any.
