Trust me Inferno is not what you dreamed it would be, and neither is endgame Diablo 3. Everything is broken beyond belief. Broken skills, broken classes, broken loot dropping mechanics. This game is a mess. For instance. I have stacked all the spirit gain I can and use the healing mantra HP shield. I can spam it like once every 2 seconds and thats 15 percent of the entire groups HP as a shield every time while also doing a lot of healing. | ||

Do the 3 magic missiles each proc prodigy where electrocute jumping still only procs once? I like keeping my distance. I use magic missile mostly for long-range enemies and bosses... and I can stuterstep micro with that haha  Also Electrocute is bugged with Prodigy. If it weren't, yeah, you probably would want that to have more AP. | ||

It definitely does more dps to groups as well. Might even do more dps to single target just because of how many times it can hit. | ||

Wait wait wait, please explain this in detail. I don't get it exactly/cant find the post, I really want to know can you explain the exakt setup it sounds extremely interesting! | ||

If it weren't, yeah, you probably would want that to have more AP. It does feel buggy with prodigy. I run electrocute with surge or w/e it is, so I *should* be getting, (assuming I hit 3 targets), 7 AP regen per shot. However, the difference in how fast I regen AP when hitting 1 mob and hitting 3 suggests that the base 4 on prodigy isn't actually ever proccing, and I'm just getting 3 per shot from electrocute's rune. I might drop prodigy as a passive until this is fixed. The insane difference in how quickly I regen AP tells me that it can't be simply 5: 7 , it's got to be 1:3. Something has to be bugged. When I hit 3 targets with electrocute my AP refills ridiculously fast. Haha that low HP tanking build sounds so borked/cheesy. I love it. I've also come to the conclusion that star-pact is simply the best meteor rune hands down. Why bother with a paltry 30% damage increase, or a slow effect, or a shotgun meteor, when you can simply drop 5-6 meteors instead? Does anyone know if it still deals fire damage? It looks like it would deal arcane, (being purple and all), but I think it still deals fire because nowhere does it say anything about arcane damage. | ||

But that other low hp build, I really wanna try it sounds so much fun on inferno can't try finding it myself as server still is down. =/ Edit: Servers up, now I see... interesting for sure! 2 more levels and I'll be using that constantly, probably good with the illusionist passive as well? | ||

Lifesteal/regen/your way to be tanky 1.5% enchanted weapon from magic weapon spell 2.5% dmg dealt returned as life or something similar possibly familar?? removes one hit every 6th second regen from galvanizing ward Items regen from other items, should have a focus on intelligence/damage/regen/each hit gives life, rest is a bonus primary archon teleport, don't know if any of them works or not, if so last one should be best mirror, don't know if any of them works or not, if so mocking device should be best some close fast dmg primary which is constantly cast and does enough damage with not too much mana spend magic weapon - blood magic one of these or possible a another damage dealer with nuke familar - ancient guardian??? frost nova-cold snap/diamond skin/alternatives??? passive illusionist galvanizing ward glass cannon or astral presence/as or if you need "mana" regen | ||

Video might still be processing so higher resolutions will come later. This is our 7k HP wizard tanking inferno for us. I think best group comp might be quad wizard. | ||

Regenerate 600 HP per second monk standing around you, be invincible to attacks like that. He has 7k life, but if he had 1,000 life, his survivability would actually increase. | ||

It is pretty gimmicky, yeah. Oh well | ||

From what I can see you've got: Familiar - Ancient Guardian Energy Armor - Force Armor Archon Ray of Frost Magic Weapon - Electric Magic Missle No idea on the passives. well, Galvanizing ward is likely the main one. The other two probably dont matter. Glass cannon for more damage output, and I guess go with the cold damage one, as your primary nuke is going to be ray of frost + 12ap rune. | ||

More funnily, another positive aspect is that this build with illusionist passive will make you a diablo 2 sorceress with very good capability to teleport around the map constantly, search for chests, treasure golems etc. =) However if you want to play like this, mirror image might not work as it will slow your progress as you don't take the 15% damage as often, however will provide survivability vs large amounts of enemys which might one hit you. | ||

Basically what I found out is that energy armor(with force armor rune) is a must to survive. I'm still not sure which hydra rune has more dps and if getting the passive arcane dynamo is worth it. This should also be viable solo if you swap blizzard rune to stun and take the paralysis passive. How could you be taking blizzard over desintegrate... I'm guessing your barb and monk can't tank the mobs in act 1/2? I just run electrocute/magic missle and disnegrate generally, we destroy almost everything. I suggest you barb and monk get a lot more gear or act 2 boss will be a bitch. Archon is amazingly fun to play around with aswell, i haven't since i got 40k dps but he was already ticking 50k ish around 20k dps. | ||

Wish we had the time to do act 3 inferno, but we all got real life commitments now =*( Wizards are definitly best at act 2 belail, phase 2 was a joke with force armor and monk healing aura, and quad mage lawlz. what about situations outside of the boss, where you are easily taking more damage than you regen due to dozens of attacks at once vs just 1 boss? .... It is pretty gimmicky, yeah. Oh well it only takes 3 hits to kill the mage (unless they got diamond shield up, then it actually soaks tha 33% of your max health ont he shield LOL) so groups usually attack at the same time. Fast attacking mobs also destroy a mage fast even with 600 regen. | ||
