This is a very old build which I've been using since I started a 'melee wizard build' been using this right after they patched out the Force Armor 'god mode'. I wonder why this build just recently became popular, I resorted to this build since I cannot face melt things like what chang does but he did switch to this build about 2 weeks ago.
Just got this perfect amulet, im considering if selling it or not, can you guys tell me the price plz? im listeing for offers http://i.imgur.com/zQTG3.png?1
Low crit chance, no crit damage.. I dont see how its remotely perfect. Im sorry.
Manta of Conviction with Overawe + Blinding Flash w/ Faith in the light.. Make sure you also stack those two when Blinding Flash Cd is up, and refresh the mantra every other chance you get..
Looking at your vid you seem to kill stuff faster than me, I do have more crit chance, crit damage and a higher dps on the stat sheet although my dex is about 200+ lower, could that be the difference?
Im looking at replacing my armor but Im not sure if it worth it, what I have is
538 armor
66 Dex
200 Vit
3 slots
Someone is selling this armor for 15M
80Dex
125Vit
35Cold Resist
30All Resist
8% Life
3 Slots
Including 3pcs of +50Dex Emeralds
Worth the upgrade?
Well, the Gems are worth roughly 6-7m. I don't think I would pay 8m for the armor without gems... resists are rather low, dex also.
Just as a comparison, I payed 500k for the following chest armor:
109 dex
147 vit
40 lightning res
38 all res
3 sockets
Now, I roughly value the 8% Life as 80 vit, so stat wise the 15M chest is a bit higher, but then the resis are lower, and overall more dex is better in my opinion. Bottom line is that I wouldn't pay so much for this chest. If you really have resist problems then you should look for something that gives you 100+ resistance...
Your chest is a lucky purchase, you cant find a similar one at any given time for 500k, I've searching for hours / day at the AH for 2 week and I still havent found a bang for the buck chest. Usually for the cold resist these kind of low stats are already very expensive. I currently have like 750 resist and I would like to bump it up some more, also my helm has no resist.
I really hate the mechanics of Sweeping Winds that it depends on the current active weapon instead of just defaulting its damage with the main hand, I find this mechanic to random or broken.
the difference in damage depending on your offhand is solely the speed of your offhand. Faster offhand = more dmg. slower offhand = less dmg because SW scales off your total attack speed.
I did hours and hours of tests on my stream. If you are interested I can give you the video archive.
This movie is just the conclusion of the testing. I didnt do that in response to this thread, but i thought you might be interested in it.
Wait, I thought Sweeping Winds damage is based off the active hand and has nothing to do with attack speed, as per what I understood in the video.. I guess the video needs a transcript.
We all have our definition on what 'farming' is, some claim to easily farm at what ever DPS but personally I dont see that kind of DPS as 'farming' state, I would personally say that one would need 75k single buffed ( either GC or Force Weapon ) to have a 'farm' state in Act3.
