Help build mage meteor

If you’re not already doing so, put as much Luck on your gear as possible and open a Legend map before rolling for higher stats.

That works? Dang huhu. HAHAHA. I will not lose againts DQ xD ill try again. Collecting red dust somewhat easy. Just the stones. I have 3obsidians in the bag. Will try again. Thank u.

It definitely does work! Also, make sure you don’t forget to max the quality to 25% BEFORE rolling. It’s so easy to make mistakes and waste precious crystals.

Legend Immolation Damage can’t be rolled with Ruby.

and that’s why a farm build is a good idea. you end up with lots of Gold to get Dust and lots of Crystals & Mythstones.

Crystal +45% Crit Chance, one Epic +15% Crit Chance, and 2 Death Natures gives +75% Crit Chance.

I did +200% Weaken for awhile back in my Noob days just to see how it does. my build wasn’t the best, but it was doing tons of damage. after that I decided that +120% Weaken or Ignore Resist were all I needed for any build, and only recently decided that adding Effective Mythic with Weaken might be good for a build. +200% Weaken is something you craft a build around, like a build with Crushing Flames (8) that has the CF Bonus for tons of Immolation damage.

Why, why why now huhuhu HAHAH huhu. But thanks. Lost another 200 red dust HAHAHAHAH

Damn no luck. Just 90% elem dmg. Dang. Um if i go immolation dmg, is that worth it? Will that help me to sustain billion dmg? I mean, im just getting billion once in a while. Happy, not satisfied xD HAHAHA. To do so i need 3 CF to have immolation dmg. So yeah, still thinking. I also decided to get rid of mirrorcast and specialcast, no dmg there just multiplying my skills. 75%clearcast will help my resource fury to spam meteors continuously. Btw, currently im one hitting cartogs and enslaves, mobs, on F590. Will work on my offhand next, will i go fire dmg too?

@Golem

Obsidian can also be used to max the values of Crystal affixes. you have to have an empty space on the Item to do this (by taking off one affix or myth stone. after you max the Crystal affix, you can put the affix or myth stone back on the Item). when crafting, you would use Diamond to max any Legend affix values, Obsidian to then max the Crystal Affix, and use Fluorite to max values of Epic/Normal affixes. Diamond is first because it rerolls all Legend, Crystal, Epic, and Normal affix values at the same time, while Obsidian and Fluorite reroll only one affix value at a time.

for Wizards, Amplify is an amazing Talent for extra damage. it does +2% damage per Rank for each Element DoT on an enemy. if you’re using just one Element with Amplify 20 that’s +40% damage as long as the Elements DoT is on the enemy (Shocks damage DoT, Ice’s Slow/Dmg Reduction, Poisons DoT, Fire’s DoT, and Ascendant Sets DoT) with 2 elements on an enemy, you get +80% damage. with a Prismatic or Ascendant Build you could get up to +200% damage, +400% with Amplify 40. Fire DoT is 2 seconds and Poison is 8 seconds and I think the other 3 last 5 seconds, so depending on the Skill used, you could end up with a damage fluctuation between +120% to +200% or a constant +200% damage with Amplify 20.

All these years and I never knew the trick with maxing crystal affix stats with Obsidian by having an open slot. Sure enough, it maxed it out first try.

Thank you!

that was an update after Patch 3.0.1 or something, I think. makes it easier to have max Crystal affixes and at least one max Legend affix, unless you spend tons of Diamonds until you have all max Legend. if you have a lot of Ruby’s, you could try to roll some Legend affixes and hope they are max when you get it. this is how you could do something like +100% Fire (can’t roll with Ruby) and +100% Blistering (can roll with Ruby) sometimes.
