Do you have any recommendations on what variations you would make to the Arcane Orb build for Hard Core players? Here is my current build on my Hardcore Wizardhttp://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Hotiedethknt-1846/hero/39351012.

Also, do you have any recommendations on what the better value for spending Paragon points for Core, Offensive, Defensive and Utility. For example do you know of any theory crafting on say the importance of Attack speed vs CC or CD?

**Edit** Well the Wizard died in a group of 4 Wizards doing Torement 1 in Act 3 thanks to a 45 second lag spike right when we engaged a elite with arcane. My friends were unable to save me when several arcane beams were tearing me apart. ***

He had his 21st birthday in the past few days so he has been offline. But he normally starts up between 8am and 9 am PST I believe or atleast that is when I have it seen it begin.

My advise would be to go a bit offensive with defensive passive and a build that will kill things quickly. I really like my current build and with my DPS and Life and Resistance I can easily kill MP1 ACT 1, and I have done MP3 act 1 easily also. With my current gear from d3up.com puts my dps at 82k and my EHP at 521K. I use Rend as my extra damage boost as I WW into a group of white creatures and let my tornados and WW finish off packs then sprint to the next group of creatures. On MP1 I do not need Wrath to kill elites but I like to have it available to me for the nasty packs of like waller, electricity, arcane, reflect, etc. I think the mistake I made with my prior Barbarians is not having the passive Nerves of Steel for the extra Armor and EHP.

Take a look at my build if you would like at http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Hotiedethknt-1846/hero/34519848 and my D3up.com profile is http://d3up.com/b/827982. My build is easily made into a 2 hand build with Skorn I just prefer the Duel wield for it fills smoother for me with the faster attack speed. I like my weapons of the Bul-Kathos since they are good on LoH and LS and are a lot cheaper then alot of the other weapons like Echo Fury.

I also use the Templar with the regen of fury ability also helps alot.

Hope you find the information helpful.

My Archon wizard dinged 60 last night and I am enjoying Archon but I am very squishy. What changes can I do in my build to give me more survivability. Also what recommendations do you have for me to change my gear around? I do have a Zuni Ring in stash but it is less sheat dps and life from the 2 rare rings I have. The Zuni ring has the following stats (9 max dmg, 95str, 84 dex, 88 int, 66 AR, 33 CD). I am also have a bid on a Zuni Boots or I was thinking of buying one if I do not win the current one i am bidding on.

I realize I have very little life and I am working on getting more purple gems and tomes to make better gems. My profile can be found at http://d3up.com/b/807630/hcguessidied. Currently I have a star emerald in the Echoing fury but I was going to change that out to a Star Ruby.

Any suggestions on gear and build would be greatly appreciated. I would prefer not to take gear from my WD that is my main cash cow for farming mp1 and 2. Her link is at http://d3up.com/b/775361

Oh currently have about 8 Million gold if I do not win the Zuni boots.
Thank you.

**Edit I won the Zuni boots and have them equiped.

thanks guys for the feedback I appreciate it for something for me to consider.

I have heard people grief people and try to kill others on HC in public games, is this true? I was curious with the new buff to Multi player games how safe are they for HC toons on MP1. My barb is now level 20 and has 5 piece IK set so I don't want to take a chance of being PK'd.

Thanks.
ps. Battletag is listed any gear advise would be greatly appreciated have about 3.5 mil to spend.

I was curious if anyone has found any good Witch Doctors builds for 1.0.8 for Hard Core? I currently doing MP0 act 1 and 3.

Thanks

thanks guys for the insights but do you actually have a build template or any of your profiles good to look at?

Thanks,

I was hoping some one may have a good support monk build when being carried in a mp10 ubers run. So I don't feel like a complete waist and not contributing to the run to make it faster. I am looking for one that has decent dps but more important survivability.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for the new build for the people not as geared. I have gotten some really good runs on mp10 now and also some God awful ones. I wish I found this many elites on my old mp0 runs of crater. It seems like on the runs that go really bad I get 3 elites right next to the big packs of scorpions. I am finding like 7 elite packs per fast run at times. But thanks for your help I appreciate it. I had 1 run that had 170 mil exp per hour... while my crappy run was like 18 mil LOL.

What all do I need to upgrade to get this build to work? I know my Resist all is really low but I only have a budget of 33 Mil gold atm.

I can sell off my Barbarian Gear since he is paragon 100 and don't play him any more that might get me 100 million more gear. With a paragon 100 I have never been lucky and got the massive gold or even RLAH item drop. Most money I have ever gotten for a sell of something I found was about 55 million gold after the 15% auction fee.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TianZi do you have an armory link and how good is your skorn in dps?

Is this a typo you buying Chantodo's Will 67m?

Thanks

A few days back on the front page of diablofans was a string to disable the rare salvage. Is that working now after the patch? If so how where do I put it so I may take away that annoying confirmation? The command shown I believe was: SalvageConfirmationToggle

My WD is level 53 right now, I have been leveling it with a friend. Once I hit 60 what would your recommendations be on what gear slots or legendary I should buy first. I have roughly 400k gold to work with on the HC side. I would be willing to trade SC gold for HC gold if anyone wants to.

I have a Manticore 1100 dps, 179 Int, IAS 10, CD 82, LS 2.4 which I had won a bid 20 minutes after my level 60 DH died on HC.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
