4x WD spec and gear discussion

[hystericalme]

You should be using 1 of each totem and use all 4 at the same time as they stack (beside the mana regen portion). The mana regen one goes to the main WD who has a 1k+ DPS mhander while the other 3 all have a manajuma (35% MF). Very simple to destroy packs in Act 1/2 this way.

Gearing for life regen and life on hit is a total waste, those are not for the WD. Same deal goes for the stun/freeze gear. You should be looking for int/vit/max mf/sockets. You don't need resists for act 1/2.

I'm successfully farming Whimsyshire, Act 3/4 and I've posted videos of me doing it. So telling me that I picked the wrong gear and it's a total waste is a bit of a silly statement.

Everyone knows Act 1 is a faceroll, so I could probably do it with just about any spec and blue gear. In my posts above I was just trying to do some apples to apples drop comparisons.

I've been farming Whimsyshire, Act 3/4, so that's what I'm geared for - no comparison to act 1/2. I don't use all the totems at once since it's a 2 minute CD. And in Whimsyshire you have to move a lot, so you go out of totem range and you just blew a 2 min CD.

My Act 1 farming gear is currently 250% MF on my 3 alts, 120% on my main with no buffs. Well over 300% average with 5 stacks. (Thanks to void for the tip on MF gearing)
