I've been working on my build, and I think I'm in a good place
with balancing Fury. I might switch out miri's for wreath of
lightning just to get the speed buff.

Played some Grifts with the guys again.

Thanks to malfred for all the hard work in T6... it's a different game, when I normally struggle in T2, playing in T6 to stay just within range to malfred, but avoiding the few mortars/electrocutes/baddies... all the while spamming Blizzards/Hydras that's probably ain't doing gak.

If you see me running into fires, stay back. I got an immunity amulet a few days ago lol.

I still twitch to get out of the way.

I still haven't changed my build XD. Just changed the weapons I have been using. Lightning build = op

I am competely immune to impairing effects. (Ice climbers)

Does that include damage?

My build doesn't afford me space to include lots of fun options.

i can only increase my damage, I can change what I use though. Combined with all my powers I can focus on certain items. Though I would rather be using more powerful skills they are just more effective. (something to do with fist of heavens would be great.)

Though I currently cannot solo torment 6. I can solo torment 5 easily.

I meant are you immune to the damage too.

ONe thing to remember is that immunity from control impairment
like Jailer and Frozen does not make you immune from the
damage they do. I have Wrath of th eBerserker up a lot and
find myself taking hard hits from frozen effects I am otherwise
ignoring.

Yeah I still takes a bit of damage from it. The only thing that seems to kill me are wallers and arcane enchanted and reflect damage which means I need more damage reduction.

MOAR DPS

Anyone have any recommendations on playing a Wizard (build, tactics, skillset, etc.)? Because right now I suck at it. I felt pretty comfortable with my WD and Crusader, but I keep dying with my Wizard, even at lower difficulty levels.

You need gear.

Look up some builds and decide how you want to play. Then do
normal rifts when no one is on and gamble for regular slots on
your armor until you get sets. Test some difficulties then go
back to normal. Once you can do Torment 1 without dying and
kiting do that until you start getting trial keys and then totally
sandbag on those until you get more gear.

That's how I did it on my barb. Most of my levels up to paragon
whatever were solo.

Looking at your wizard, there are even lots of pieces there that
could be upgraded to level 70 yellows at the very least.

Find me online buddy... I'll show you how it works.

Plus, with 2 wizzy, we can swap loots.

Working on a wizard myself...but in a roundabout way.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/malfred-1996/hero/61442534

Bloodsharding on the barbarian, leveling gems while gambling
on the wizard. My bloodshard cap is 900, so it's not really all
that annoying.

I'm hoping to use one of Jaetch's builds some day. However, there
are several limitations to doing things the way that I'm doing.

1. Getting Wizard Focus and Restraint. In a pinch, I can slap
crappy STR ones on my Wizard.
2. Getting any jewelry. One version of the build uses F+R.
Another uses Halo. In both cases I'd have to get the Tal Rash
amulet. Jewelry is stupid expensive to bloodshard.
3. Less stupid expensive is getting a serpent sparker.

Got lucky with my barb the other day and pushed a 43 GRift
and drew Tethrys as the Guardian. Got it done with time to
spare, but I'm going to need to rethink my setup if I want to push
further. I'm thinking I don't want to bother pushing all that hard
and just gear up a Wizard as a fun side activity.

There is a gem that gives experience so you can power level the wizard.

Yeah, my wizard is level 70 already thanks to the Gem of Ease.

I'm talking about specific gear pieces.

I don't know what is the best set is for Set items.

Not asking. I'm targeting Tal Rasha because Meteors are fun.

Just saying I might be on my wizard in the next few weeks.

Still got that on my other wizard. Also the archon one is fun as helk.

I'm going to try out the new wizzy set that makes use of Slow Time.

Copius amount of Slow Time + Mal's barb + the rest of dakka clan... maybe we can push the GR beyond 43.

Heh. 43 was dicey by myself.

Did a couple GRs real quick with my Wizahd today. So he's getting better.

No gear on your followers?

I wasn't using followers, I guess I should probably do that for solo runs. I forgot about them since I wasn't running through the campaign.

I'm guessing the Templar goes well with the Wizard?

I'd ask whembly. My wizard is kind of twinked.

My Wizard is geared out but is missing three expensive pieces.

Tal Rasha Amulet
Halo Arlyse
Serpent Sparker

Currently gambling on the sparker and hoping the other two will
drop. Her current grift ceiling is 33.

Tal Rasha amulet dropped. Working on Crusader now.

Considering an Unhallowed Essence Demon Hunter.

wtf is wrong with me.

Malfred your going to burn out pretty quickly I say take a break.

Mess around on the minecraft server

Nah this is good for me. Work is stressful

Anyway, supposedly this season is going to last 4 months which
means it carries into my summer. I should play the crap out of
this one. Next one I'll try to focus on just one toon.
