Diablo Immortal: A High Damage PvM And PvP Wizard
Disintegrate Arcane Wind Wizard Guide
Disintegrate Wizards use the Magic Missile primary attack with Disintegrate, Arcane Wind, Black Hole (PvM) or Ice Crystal (PvP), and Lightning Nova (PvM) or Teleport (PvP). The Chaosrupture offhand essence is great for PvM because it makes Black Hole gain two charges and makes Black Hole explode after a short delay which deals very high damage. With the Trifling Piffle offhand essence Lightning Nova spawns an extra Lightning Nova when enemies are Shocked. With the Thistle Bloom main hand essence your Arcane Wind draws enemies into its vortex and deals damage over time. Arcane Wind with Thistle Bloom is one of the best crowd control skills in the game. You should also use Ice Crystal in PvP to give Disintegrate increased range which allows you to attack opponents in PvP from a long distance. Ice Crystal also has a chill effect inside your Arcane Wind that can bring opponents to a stand still making them easy to defeat if they don't have a dash skill ready. This Wizard build overall is a very competitive build for single target damage and it's the best Wizard PvP damage build.

​​
Best 2 Star Legendary Gems
1. Pain Clasp - Gives high increased damage against enemies that have a continuous damage effect on them.
2. Mother's Lament - Increases your critical hit chance and releases a blood spike that causes enemies to bleed.
3. Specter Glass - Increases the damage taken by enemies after critical hits and increases your critical hit chance.
4. Fervent Fang - Gives a stacking damage increase and increases your damage against elites and bosses.
5. Mourneskull - This legacy gem increases your damage and deals damage but it's now drop disabled.
6. Viper's Bite - Optional gem to deal damage over time but it's not needed to trigger the Pain Clasp gem on this build.
7. Crimson Behelit - Strong legacy gem that gives increased damage and reduced damage taken but it's drop disabled.
8. Igneous Scorn (PvM) - Can be combined with other critical hit chance legendary gems to deal damage on critical hits.
Note: Pain Clasp is triggered by the burn from the Disintegrate skill when using the Searing Judgment shoulder essence.
​
Best 1 Star Starter Legendary Gems
1. Berserker's Eye (PvM) - Increases all of your damage and critical hit chance but also increases your damage taken.
2. Entropic Well - A great one star legendary gem that increases your skill damage and increases your attack speed.
​3. Everlasting Torment - Deals damage over time on critical hits which also triggers the damage increase on Pain Clasp.
4. Trickshot Gem - A budget gem that lowers channeling costs which allows you to channel Disintegrate for longer.
5. Surging Sea - A lower priority one star gem that has a stacking skill damage increase that stacks up to 10 times.
6. Faltergrasp (PvP) - Disables opponents' dash skills on critical strikes and greatly reduces their movement speed.
Note: Berserker's Eye is a strong one star gem that requires a high ranked up 5 star gem to match its damage.
​
Best Familiars
1. Savior Duskprowler - Look for a 170+ Resilience legendary Duskprowler with the Savior passive skill which provides a cheat death and temporary damage immunity. The 170+ Resilience on the familiar lowers the cooldown of Savior.
2. Broodtalon/Skitterwight - Look for Savior which provides a cheat death and Lingering Wounds for increased damage.
3. Ash Sweeper - Ash Sweepers are strong, especially in PvP, because they damage nearby enemies and mark an enemy reducing their damage by 20% for three seconds. They can also have 170+ Resilience to reduce the cooldown of Savior.
4. Any Savior Familiar - You can use any familiar with Savior for a cheat death and great passive skills as an alternative.
5. Rare Duskprowler - Relentless Strikes is the next best skill because it gives a chance to cast the Duskprowler shield twice. Innervate gives a chance at resetting one of the player's skill cooldowns, Steel Hide gives a chance to block, Precision gives critical hit chance, and Tenacity lowers the cooldown of the Duskprowler shield which are also desirable.
Note: Broodtalons and Skitterwights have status effects over a duration which increases the duration of Lingering Wounds.
​
Normal Gems
Prioritize Tourmalines for added damage in red sockets and your highest refinement Citrines and Topaz in yellow sockets. Citrines are better in PvP for increased harmful effect duration. You should use your highest refinement Aquamarines and Sapphires which give increased armor and armor penetration in blue sockets. You can optionally combine all of your bound Rubies which give life and socket one or two of them in your equipment if they give higher refinement. Normal gems give refinement based on their quality and refinement increases the attributes of the equipment they're socketed in.​
​
Gem Notes
The new Fated Trail five star legendary gem is a powerful gem once you have high maximum life from plenty of ranked up five star gems. The Blood Floe five star gem is a great option when it's combined with multiple sources of increased critical hit chance and critical hit damage. Viper's Bite and Seeping Bile aren't needed to trigger the damage increase on the Pain Clasp gem from having continuous damage on the target because Arcane Wind already deals continuous damage. When using increased critical hit chance legendary gems like Roiling Consequence, Blood Floe, and Mother's Lament you should also consider rolling increased critical hit damage on your equipment using Reforge Stones for more damage.​
