About 1 bil to gear all 4, not including gems.

I am sure you could manage MP10 with a lot less gold, the only big difference imo would be the kill speed on elites. You just have to make sure you get to as close to 750 All res / 5k armor / 700+ LOH / 50% crit chance / 2.31+ AS / 20 APOC as possible. And of course the more HP the better, id love to get to 40k+ so i could survive a molten explosion when i am being lazy or not paying attention to the affixes.

I think you could manage to gear all 4 with the necessary defenses for under say.. 200 mil and be around 80k-100k DPS. Just consider the extra 800 mil i spent was gaining 60k dps on all 4 x_X

The most expensive pieces were

5% crit storm crow with high life on hit.
All resist, decent INT / VIT Zuni boots
High INT/VIT zuni chest
High average damage chantodo's offhand.
And I paid a decent amount for all of my amulets, but i plan to hopefully replace those with crafted ones eventually.

Everything else was pretty cheap. The Chantodo wands with +0.25 AS and really good damage / socket are ridiculously expensive, i did not really care about the +0.25 AS becuase of Slow time - Stretch time, free 10% atk speed which makes up for it.

From there on out, its basically trying to squeeze in as much Crit damage as possible, and watch your DPS shoot up cause crit dmg is stupid. If i bothered to upgrade any of my gear its really expensive and I don''t feel its worth it, i am just crafting gloves and amulets hoping for a decent upgrade.

Right now i am only clearing crypt of the ancients, i found about 9-10 legendary's last night in about an hour (of course they were all garbage, but i still love when i see that beam of light!). The EXP with all the white mobs in there on mp10 is really good. I have done all of my 12 paragon levels in there the past couple nights. I tried keep depths 2 and a couple of other places, but personally i like going to 1 small zone, clearing it going through the mountains of loot that drop on MP10 and doing it again , cause i hate running back to where i died in keep depths 2 because i did not manage to get 1 of those STUPID Fallen Maniacs ice nova'd :lol:

So your not taking advantage of the WD Brawler free XP feature currently being offered by Blizzard?

What I've found out, in my particular case, is not only does the character being fed Dogs get XP but the WDs doing the feeding gets XP as well

I made a quick video if anyone wanted to see my build in action.

Sorry about the quality, but any higher and my computer dies.

I switched all 4 back to Frost nova, using Deep Freeze for tons of crit, and took off armor to use 4x Slow Time

1x Time Warp and 3x Stretch Time, i had no idea that they stacked xD

Re: 4x Wizards - Screen freeze/Lag, please give advice

Dude, that quality was fine.

I think I'm in love.

Some follow up questions, as I wipe the drool off my mouth
  • Am I correct in assuming this is also applicable in ubers?
  • Do I need mouse macros, like a G13 or something to run CM? I recall people complaining one Wizard build was nearly impossible without them.
  • How are your screens configured? I'm always looking for suggestions. Currently I run Full Window on 1 screen, and 2x2 for the other 3 windows (with an empty spot). I still can't perfectly see item drop names and feel the need to cycle for Demonic Essences.
  • What'd you use to capture video? FRAPS?

Much much much super much thanks. Very much appreciated that you took the time for the video. It just cemented the fact of me switching to CM Wiz. As much as I like super fast zooming TR monks, this will be a nice change of pace.

I have no idea about ubers, i can't be bothered to collect keys and all that :P

I use no macro's, carpel tunnel INC.

i have 1 full screen window on my right Monitor, and 3 on the left with an empty space for websites etc. I can see demonic essences and names on the small windows i just like cycling through them all after i kill an elite and collect all the goodies, both of my monitors are 27 inches, maybe that would help.

like this Image

I just recorded locally using Xsplit, i bought a sub because i thought i wanted to stream before realizing i am way too self conscious and cannot stand when children/trolls make fun me for whatever in the chat, it ruins my day :D

Re: 4x Wizards - Screen freeze/Lag, please give advice

:( I experience the same issue with lags. Was so excited with 4 wizards at the beginning. Already geared up my 4 DHs and wanted to try something else. But with wizards, when I meet packs all screens lag for 3-5 seconds. I can even see orange connection bar for few seconds. Then everything goes back to normal. Does anyone have any ideas?

p.s. I have >30 Mbit internet for both download and upload.
