done with the first step : getting new chantodo .. not 1.2k dps but max aps
now aiming for a rare amu trifec +int + loh + average damage
i should start crafting
Lots of good advice in this thread. I started CM wiz about 4 months ago and have been going through the upgrade struggle ever since, can be super frustrating at times but it's a lot more fun then my barb was.
I would say your biggest problem is your armor/LoH, I run SNS in a mp10 group with a couple cyclone monks with a 4574-armor/47k-life/766-Res/1121-LOH/2.76-AS and I'm still not satisfied with my survivability. You have nice resist but 3372 armor is much too low and I assume that's why your using crystal shell and not shards. Easy partial solution would be to replace your BT pants with a pair with 800+ armor. for the LOH I'd start crafting ammy's, I'm over a 1000 crafts now and have made about 12 that are good (no trifecta yet...) the one I'm currently wearing gives me the best balance for high mp so far.
I also agree with those suggesting IC+rare ring over the Zuni set, at your amount of vit the 12% life bonus on IC's will give you more life then the vit on your Zuni's and it's fairly cheap to find a 245+ int pair that when socketed will completely replace the int you get from the set bonus, you can also get armor and vit rolls.
If you look at the IC+rare ring in currently wearing (http://www.diabloprogress.com/hero/richtko-1182/EXLAND/19256100#) which there still has of room for upgrading.
I'm getting; intelligence 394 (vs 338 on your Zuni set), vit 130 (78), res 146 (143), life 12% (0), as 8% (6%), CC 5.5% (4%), CD 0 (34%), avg dmg 32 (0), armor 519 (331) and of course I don't have the elemental damage but for the price of your pox you could do considerably better then your current setup.
Things wich changed since the beginning:
new chantoMainhand max attack speed, more damage,
new iceclimbers , instead of zunimasa boots
new rings - one with loh, the other pure offense
new amulet - instead of talrasha now trifecta to get 2.74 breakpoint
new lacuni - for all res and dps
new witching hour - for all res and dps
Question: What to do now?
i wanna reach those 300k dps unbuffed - any suggestions?
its really hard to reach that dps point as CMWW
The biggest dps upgrade would be innas pants, with those and some other upgrade i could reach 3.0 attacks per second.
but this would require me to find an amulet quintfecta + at least 450loh. I never seen this even once.
Yet innas would only pump dps bei 10k, thats still 30k to go.
what up guys? nothing to tell me? maybe tell me that ?:D
Not really. You're at the point where you're making logical upgrades bit by bit, unlike players who dump gold into totally random items and wonder why they don't do damage and why they keep dying.
sure more armor and resists are nice to have, but since i really dont die if dont kiss a Tree or a fanatic, its not a primary factor for choosing the next upgrade.
anyhow i watched at all t he > 300k cms, and basically i just need a little more stat here and there - i have the right items , but every item needs a little morre stats +1% attackspeed, +1% crit +10 int + 50 average damage.
kk this will come over time.
thanks guys
PS: i would give my soul for Charlatan's Zuni Pox

This is my SNS wizard for reference: http://d3up.com/b/577960/aesthia-sns
DPS far higher than when I used to run 3.01 APS, but EHP is far lower.

dude if you do that ill get all over my head
oki, i see no big difference between your and my gear. except for innas pants and more int and some more attack speed here and there.
so iam pretty much left with little by little incremental upgrades.
DAMNIT this will cost a fortune^^
