This is my own personal Inferno Build, one that I’ve been playing with. Sadly, set-items and other legendries associated with the Wizard aren’t as good when compared with the rest of the classes, so you’ll need to do some deep digging in the Auction house or farm like crazy. We will be covering items in the Inferno Build as well, but will be doing it in general.
The only thing that makes playing the Wizard a difficulty is the fact that most of the great builds now need insane items. Yes, reliable skills like Energy Twister also took a hit from the patch, but it’s still possible to take your slim Wizard into the terrifying arenas of the Inferno. In fact, provided you have great gear, the Wizard is still pretty insane. But that still doesn’t mean that this amazing DPS class isn’t playable. The infamous Critical Mass build for the Wizard sadly doesn’t work as well as it used to, with near-zero cool-downs allowing one to spam the most powerful abilities of all. The Wizard on the other hand has taken a serious hit.įor more help on Diablo 3 Builds, read our Monk Builds, Demon Hunter Builds and Witch Doctor Builds Guide Diablo 3 Best Wizard Builds
The Barbarian is still pretty badass and more than capable to solo Inferno, provided you have above average items. Before Blizzard kicked in the massive nerf to the Wizard and Barbarian, the two classes easily outplayed all the others in the game, including the Demon Hunter.
