S3 Wizard Team Progress

[Cmoidudu]

GR 52 done, with some luck with the Rift Guardian for a once. Last tries I got the dude-with-the-teleporting-clones-and-the-one-shot-laser-beams, and then Cold Snap. Talking of Cold Snap, if you have some advice, I'm listening. Because if there is a proper tactic to beat him as a multiboxer, I certainly don't master it

Don't mind the ridiculous mouse cursor. At least, I know what I'm doing. Really, until now I needed to concentrate just to figure out where my cursor was... Now I can focus on my toons (are they standing on something nasty?) and still know where is my target.

Current build....swap in elemental exposure and cold blooded over conflagration for two of the party:

BTW, u sure Toxin gives u more dps? Cause BoT sounds like more damage overall.

[Zwizm]

Very nice clear Cmoidudu!!! BTW, what is that cursor you are running?

Devil, I was under the impression that Toxin is a flat 40%. Can BoT compete with that? Do tell!

Ellay, Devil is right. I've opted for CC with FN over TnT's, thus Leorics over Tal Rasha helm. I have enough DPS if I have control of the situation versus more DPS and little to on control.

[Devile]

Yes, Toxin is 40% but additive with the other buffs/debuffs while BoT is multiplicative which should dish quite more dps overall. Give it a try and see if u notice any difference.

BTW, seems like the top build shifted to Teleport + Meteor. This guy hit 61 today:



Don't think we can easily it multibox tho. Fun to watch anyway.

[Pazgaz]

how come his ui looks like that?

[Pazgaz]

oh wait... it's just something he added on top of his normal ui, right?

[Devile]

Yes, its the streaming software that lets u add that "overlay". It doesn't change the game, its just how it's shown on the stream.

[Devile]

GR70 ... maybe one day we can multibox it

a comment on this youtube video sums how I feel:
"Once you have the gear to deal enough damage, what is the hard point of this then...Playing softcore and CC'ing everything with broken WD mechanics which is way too OP, that's not difficult lol. There is no hard aspect of the game, by playing against monsters who can't even fight back. So it all comes down to get some gear to do high enough damage and then gamble for some lucky rifts with high density. "

(...) So it all comes down to get some gear to do high enough damage and then gamble for some lucky rifts with high density. "

Unfortunately he's not wrong... It's one of the major flaws of the game in its current state IMHO. However, with this setup I can handle almost any type of monster population, in any rift map, and reach the Rift Guardian with some time remaining all the time at GR52... But then everything depends on the Rift Guardian.

The Rift Guardians that are really tough (for me) are :
- Cold Snap : I can take 75% of his life and then he'll spam his frost shit and he will kill my team 10 times in a row before I can finish him.
- Raiziel ? (teleporting demon with clones, waller and red beam).
- Voracity : I can hardly see the poison clouds, which at this level kill me almost instantly. Resistance to poison is the weak point of Tal Rasha Wizards.

(...) BTW, what is that cursor you are running?

I can't really say... I couldn't run it properly with IsBoxer, so I posted a message in the IsBoxer forums about that, and the message got immediately deleted. So I don't want to get the IsBoxer guys angry. But I'm sure that you can find out with a little Google search. And, it needs to be run as administrator in order to work with IsBoxer
