Optimal wizard spells

[Bulzap]

Hey fellow wizards

I would like to hear what combat routines you guys use and with which spells. I would like you guys to use the following template for the answering.

Spells: arcane orb, magic missiles, magic weapon, energy armor , hydra and teleport.

Routines: generic. With hydra set to on use for every 14 seconds.

Profile: sarkorth runs from artemis

Pros: puts up a hydra to defend you while teleporting out and a hydra in the cellar. If there is only 1-2 mobs it will kill them before they kill you. The buffs are working perfectly

Cons: Even puts up a hydra if the cellar is open. Only using arcane orb and when out of energy it just stands there waiting. Even use hydra when in town.


Result: around 175gph with only 65GF and 50 MF and 20k dps unbuffed.

Lets find the best setup to farm gold / content! : )

what setting in the generic profile do you put teleport on? I am going to be switching to Sarkoth runs soon from the core.

I dont want generic to cause it to teleport at all kind of, so I think I have set something like when mobs are near which shouldnt happen in a normal run.

The artemis profile is already using the wormwhole teleport to get to the cellar and dont want to teleport beyond that.

I don't actually bot on a wizard (since I don't bot on my main account) but if I was to I'd use this for low level in NM such as core of Arreat runs:
Wizard - Game Guide - Diablo III

Lightning Blast because the projectiles travel frigging fast and it's enough to aim it in the right direction.
Arcane Hydra because it deals efficiently with champions and is self aiming.
Mirror Image w/ Mimics for the same reason.
Storm Armor for the occasional runspeed increase, i'll take it where I can get it.
The rest is damage buffs.

Spells: teleport, archon

Routines: teleport on cooldown, archon on cooldown

Profile: sarkoth runs from artemis

Pros: teleports and archons

Cons: doesn't cook you breakfast


Result: gph seems to have more to do with the efficacy of the bot than your spell setup. I'm in trash gear and kill sarkoth in 2-3 seconds with archon.

Oh and I use a tanky crit setup for goblin farming act 2, can deal with cerain affixes and not others, and survives decently against the bees. Pretty much the same as any other melee wizard.
