Where do you guys farm in act 2 inferno? I tried every area but it takes really long for me to kill elites/champions and usually only after repeated deaths. Most packs are kind of unkitable and my play is just not efficient enough. My stats are below:
Try Siegebreaker runs in Act 3, imo. I farmed those a long time with comparable(actually, worse) stats than yours. However, I use AO/hydra build for it, so maybe that makes a difference? How is that effective? I can down him with my normal gear but he will drop crap. My MF gear is so bad I cant finish him.. How do you farm Siegebreaker effectively?
Port to rakkis crossing(sp), get tyrael, port back to bridge of korsik, with tyrael(lots of extra free dps), pretty easy to get ot 5stack NV, you also have 2 dungeons(caverns + underbridge), so potentially 2 gold chests. Swap in MF gear before each champion kill. I get 8-12 rares per run, that's a lot of rolls at being a good rare. Made a bunch of money doing em.

I think farming azmodan is better, but maybe a bit harder I guess? Get 2 bosses back to back.

Possibly better, but much harder to get 5stacks of NV, soul lashers + phase beasts are much harder than the monsters in the fields/bridge, at least in my experience.

There are actually no soul lashers if you tp to the last part of the quest in the tower

Bingo.
That's what I farm, Tower of the Cursed (2-6 champions or so), Cydaea, Azmodan. Generally weak mobs, easy to clear (barring champ phasebeasts in Arreat Core).

Ah really? Could have sworn I saw some, at the very least between spider bitch and Azmo. Are there enough champs to stack 5 nv?

Phasebeasts can appear there, yes, but no soulrippers.
I've seen as low as 2 packs in the Tower of the Cursed and 1 in Arreat Core, and as many as almost 10 packs in the three areas combined. Generally, I have at least 4 NV (and often 5) for Cydaea and a full 5 for Azmodan.
The big benefit is that ToC has pretty much only blood clan, succubi, and burning ghouls, none of which are particularly powerful mob types.

hi, can you give me your spec and stats? i thought i can do this but pretty much every pack costs me 20minutes and several death trains...

Hmm, maybe I'll take a quick run through and see how I do.

Crit?
AP on crit?
I always feel so naked without a signature spell, but I am certainly AP starved with zero buffs to AP due to 2h weapon + nothing on headpiece.

ive got exactly the same spec but not the gear :/ what passives are you using? what attacks per second do you have? crit?
|
No Crit mods atm (working on that still), 1.29 attacks per second. No reasonable space for a signature, I'm generally kiting in between volleys anyway.
Glass Cannon, Temporal Flux, Astral Presence.

Yeah. This is largely for one reason - if I run into champion phasebeasts in the core that I probably can't kill, I can still sometimes get past them and do Azmodan anyway. Otherwise I'd probably run fracture instead.

Phasebeasts are not a big problem. There are two ways to deal with them. If you got enough room, and 25% movespeed, you can kite them, because they won't port if they are to far away. If you don't, just run up all the way to the entrance, die there, respawn and immediately run into the opposite direction, and they won't follow you.

All sensible points. I don't have 25% movespeed though, so that's one problem, and I don't really want to kite phasebeasts back from at the end all the way to the start.
Wormhole is also somewhat handy vs Azmodan, since in the case of getting pinned by hellish ground, the mobility can save you. Again, this isn't a necessity, really aware positioning can keep you out of such situations, but it's nice to have a fallback option.

when is it worth it for me to quit getting more resist and go back to int/vit?
my lowest is 380, I would really like to back off though as my dps is only 28k and Im too gold-poor to buy the really good +all resist items.

Whats the best gear i should be getting, as a lvl 60 wizard. Give some names of good items.

there's no point of telling you item names (unless you have millions to spend at the AH). keep farming for better and better gear, and when your gold beings to build up, buy items on the AH that has the best bang for your buck.
Also, consider investing in a magic finding set. Really does help to accelerate the farming process.
