Initially going into inferno i had about 1.59? attack speed with 20% crit chance and I struggled with procs at times. I soon switched to a nice dagger with a 15% atk speed boost which put me over 2.00 atkspd, and the difference is pretty astounding. The elites I've faced seem to be pretty 'dealable' with, but I know I haven't had anything really bad yet. I've found that if you use the crit build with a lack of vit gear you really need to do some kiting for certain properties. It's pretty easy to train yourself to stutter step with living lightning and nova/shell when necessary. In case anyone's wondering, I haven't died too much and I'm still setting at about 9k life and 14k dps. I'm sure I will have plenty of trouble in the near future with the lack of vit but I'm still gearing okay ;_; I really wish I could work in teleport into the build somehow to better deal with vortex/waller/jailer, but the only thing I can replace right now is hydra, which would wreck my dps. On another note, how do people deal with fast/teleport with fire chain? I think it's probably like one of the worst combos around so far that I've faced. | ||

Does attackspeed benefit Venom Hydra? Is the hydra shooting faster then or something? My skills right now are Venom Hydra, Ray of Frost with reduced AP cost, Blizzard with reduced cost, Diamond Skin with Crystal Shell, Energy Armor with Force Armor, Teleport with Fracture. As of now, i dont think attackspeed would help me increase my DPS at all, since Ray of Frost is AP-neutral right now, with higher attackspeed it would just drain very fast, blizzard doesnt benefit from Attackspd as well. Act 2 Inf, but need to step my gear up to actually play there. | ||

You are still able to use FA with DS when over 20k hp, i did actually have some trouble with butcher but i still manage to kill him quite easily with this build. | ||

How the f*** do you kill belial using the crit build? I think you can't hit him using LL. ![]() | ||

I have been using something like this http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/wizard#RcSXjO!fUX!bcZaaY to farm stuff in act i inferno, you might want to take teleport with wormhole instead of the familiar if you don't feel confident without it. FA is mostly there to make the butcher easier by reducing those 20k hits to 8k, and avoid being oneshot by hardhitters when derping. I am at the moment progressing through act 2 at Belial, and expect to kill belial today once i start being less stupid and stop getting hit by stuff, best try so far was 30% until i got hit by some random fireball. On that notion, does someone know exactly how hard his shit in p2 hits? I am tempted to get a lot more vit just to be able to survive those hits with FA on to make him a joke, but i don't want to waste my time/money doing that when he hits so hard that it is impossible to achieve anyways. I know that at the moment, i am able to survive some hits, but die instantly to some of his hits, and the fireballs of course. Also, i have an other unrelated question regarding mf. I have heard various rumours that mf is shared between the group, and/or even shared between you and you follower, which would in my case mean that the follower effectively halves my mf. Is that true? I am a bit scared at the moment to google this kind of stuff with all the hacking rumours going on, but i know that i can trust tl. | ||

Alright, how do you have two defensive skills? Omg, I've just googled it... WTF Blizzard? I'm sure there was no more obvious way to lock skills but to put it in a bloody gameplay settings. Got to level 53 without knowing it.... | ||

![]() I am new to Diablo and I am playing a wizard. I was going on the FA build because that seemed cool. Now I m lvl 38 in nitemare. I would like to optimize my build in order to get fast lvl 60 and start inferno Any insight of build / gear ? Some other question : do you use your weapon or only the spells ? And last nnewbie question : is there a way to figure how much DPS you do with arcane orb for instance ? How are those damages calculated ? Based on intelligence ? On weapon ? Thanks a lot I know this is kinda newbie but any help would be much appreciated. | ||

Anyone have a rough idea how much damange/hp/resist I should have to get through act 1. Currently im at 25k hp with 14k damage (with a couple defensive skills). I did the whole Act I (up to Butcher boss) with a little over 6k HP 26k DPS after the FA nerf, with this build http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/wizard#YcXOSQ!XfU!aYaYZZ. I really like this build and used it throughout hell. There's 3 ways to get out of bad situations, diamond skin, teleport, and frost nova. Then you just kite with orb. Oh yeah and get +12% movement boots, the game is just not the same without them. It was only at Butcher that I got some vit gear lol. Haven't started Act II yet. | ||

I'm usually not that bad at kiting and evading attacks. But there are still a lot of instances where you just can't avoid it and I wonder how you're supposed to be able to deal with that. As you mentioned Fast/Teleporter/Vortex can be quite hard to deal with. Also the first Aspect (+ Show Spoiler + the one from Leah Also thinking about pushing more armor, using the +40% resistance energy armor and using a shield instead of a 2h. | ||

I have 40k hp but I just get 2-3shot basically. Yeah i skipped all those leaper champs yesterday, they are really fast even without the fast attribute (if I'm thinking of the right mob). | ||
