TheDemokin posted a message on BIS Gear setups (1.0.6)The following is a comparison of some of the most popular gear setups for wizards that are trying to achieve the maximum DPS potential of the class. These are the BIS (BIS = Best In Slot, best possible rolls on items that you can get) and is not meant to be a gearing guide, but rather to give us a general idea of which setup outperforms the others.Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
Please take note:- DPS is unbuffed (no glass cannon, no followers, no force weapon, no sparkflint, etc)
- EHP is unbuffed
- Paragon level 100
- Best possible rolls on a Dagger and a Sword (explanation here, thanks to DisposableHeero and a fix by Thespeaker)
- Best possible rolls on every slot
- Perfect quadfecta Tal Rasha's amulet loses to perfect quintfecta rare in every setup
Gear setup DPS(unbuffed) EHP(unbuffed) Sword+Trium+Zuni Boots 781.48k 739.26k Sword+Trium+Zuni x2 769.79k 758.06k Sword+Trium 761.99k 856.86k Sword+Ctd 750.49k 741.73k Dagger+Tirum+Zuni Boots 733.47k 739.26k Dagger+Trium+Zuni x2 718.3k 758.06k Dagger+Trium 715.18k 856.86k Dagger+Ctd 707.88k 741.73k Skorn+Zuni Boots 540.01k 767.79k Skorn 519.92k 888.57k
Weapon choice explanation:
A weapon can roll up to 6 affixes, we are looking for- Damage range (it is shown in two lines, but it is actually a single affix, a damage range)
- Damage %
- Socket
- Critical hit damage
- Intel
- Increased attack speed
- 1 handed dagger = 1.5 APS
- 1 handed sword and wand= 1.4 APS
Further variations:
There is a very large amount of possible variations of the gear setup, losing some DPS gaining some EHP, etc. I do not plan on encompassing every single variation in here. If you wish to experiment on your own, using d3up.com- login with your account (create one for free if you need to)
- open the link to the profile that i linked
- click on any item in my profile
- under the item name click 'copy item'
- now the item is in your account list
- create a character, go to gear tab, click change / simulate gear
- choose the item you just copied from my profile to equip
P.S. If i have missed any stat on any item or a roll somewhere - let me know i'll fix it up. -

Bagstone posted a message on Budget Wizard speed farming and why I ditched Archon35-40m is the minimum dps if you're moving without teleport archon rune, 100k dps (equivalent of 3m budget gear) and really really casual gameplay. He was giving a very low estimate.Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
Wizards aren't that much slower than other classes. Put in scramble rune, 24% MS, Archon and you're just as quick as any other class. And with decent gear, 70m or even more are no problem for wizards (remember, 100k is the budget dps, look at what Jaetch pulls off). - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Actually, it's called "auction fever," which is a legitimate term in the auction world. Some people just get so into winning an item, they don't care how much they pay. They just want to beat out the competition. Snipers with auction fever are the absolute worst, for the sake of their own "finances" as well as other people who are trying to win items.
But then if they win through overpowering others financially, most often they'll suffer from "buyer's remorse" after they cool off. Which is why many people stick to proxy bidding "20 hours before" the auction ends to avoid overpaying as well as getting inflicted with auction fever.
...Oh, I remember this time I saw an absolutely awesome Vile Ward a few months ago. It started off with like a 100M bid, but I knew it was worth around 750M to 1 billion at most. So I put in 1.25 billion as my proxy bid when it had about 12 hours remaining just to be safe.
I woke up in the morning about half an hour before the auction ended and kept watch just for fun before I had to leave for work. With 10 minutes remaining, it was at 500M, which I expected. At five minutes, it was at 700M. At 2 minutes, it was at 900M. Now I started getting a little concerned.
I ended up paying around 1.2 billion because someone (some people) kept bidding at the last few seconds. Sigh.

It was just an example. My point is that no matter how much the game improves, there will always be something someone out there is displeased with. I like where the game is going and the improvements so far. But there's still going to be something wrong with the game in 2018. I hate comparing D2 and D3, but look at D2. There are still problems with that game.

Yep, I just noticed this last night.
I can't recall how many times the game was loading up and the moment I start, I see a cross and "You are Dead" with a swarm of Horde Phasebeasts romping on my corpse.

Set up lanes to defend and just kill, kill, kill, kill. Rewards fall upon the completion of each "phase." Game ends when everyone dies or whatever needs to be defended gets wrecked by mobs... and just to make it fun, it can go on for 300 phases or something.
Old-school Starcraft and Warcraft mod players should know about Hero Line Wars and those Tower Defense games.
