Boxing the meta 4 man

I can't agree more than that on what you said. I'm still missing some key elements on the build. I just got a Solanium (at last!) on my Monk, he wasn't using one on the video... For the rest...

• U are using F&R and no generator which means u are missing a ton of DPS. Get the Endless Walk set + CoE and u should do much more damage, and also help with survivability while moving around.

• Yep. It's just that I don't have a decent set so I'm instead getting +20% Arcane from my necklace and 50% damage from F+R, with good crit chance and damage on the items. But it's also true true that a very bad Endless Walk will still give me 100% damage, which is more than 50+20. I'll fix that soon.

• No perma ignore pain. This is a big one. U should have it 100% of the time, specially while moving around when positioning to the next pack. Not just because of the DR but immunity.

• That too I already improved. My Barbarian got some gear upgrades.

• Autocast your EB. U forget to cast it and keep losing the buff. Use the numlock trick or whatever works for u so its always being casted. Same goes for other buffs/debuffs from your party that can be casted while moving (blinding flash, warcry, ignore pain, etc.). Looks like u cast them just before engaging and that's a big NONO. That's why u got 1 shot by that Lacuni.

• Well that one is tricky. You have to hit in order to trigger the damage buff + damage reduction, not just cast, so if you can't hit anything during 6 seconds, the stacks are gone. But still, you are right, when I move for a "long" time I start fighting with zero stack, which is not good.

• Diamond Skin seems kinda useless there. Maybe go with Frost Nova for additional 33% debuff or Familiar for more damage.

• Since I don't use Teleport for obvious desync reasons, I have some kind of "free slot", so I tried Diamond Skin with the Arcane Power reduction affix. Not so useful however. I'm trying different things at the moment.

AND, the biggest issue of all: POSITIONING(...)

Absolutely. But this is hard to both have your team gathered, and place the creatures between you and a wall. Plus, the Monk will move the target. Maybe I'll need to get rid of Cyclone Strike... Which would be a huge DPS loss since the Monk also uses Strongarm Bracers. But I'm still very far from what the SoS Team is doing. The Wizard is targeting an angle of a wall (not a corner) and the Twisters seem to be stuck there. Amazing.

[edit] Also that SoS Wizard dude is not using the Paragon points for "Life on hit", if anybody has a clue about that...
