Diablo Immortal: The Highest AoE Burst Wizard
Meteor Wizard Guide
Meteor Wizards should use the Magic Missile primary along with Meteor, Arcane Wind, Slow Time, Ice Armor (for PvM) or Teleport (for PvP). This Meteor Wizard has extremely strong AoE burst damage for a Wizard build. You should use the Terminus Facade helmet which makes Slow Time greatly reduce the cooldowns of your Meteor and Arcane Wind and it also gives increased movement speed. The Apocalypse Root legs are also recommended for three charges of Meteor which helps lower the cooldown of your Arcane Wind when using Terminus Facade and gives high burst damage. With Terminus Facade, your three Meteor charges will also recharge very quickly and your Arcane Wind can be active at all times. Meteors from Apocalypse Root and Arcane Wind can also create Firestorms which increase your wind damage. This build is the best AoE Burst Wizard build, is a strong choice for content with multiple targets that are close together, and it's also a solid PvP build because Arcane Wind can be used to provide crowd control for your team with 100% uptime.

​​​

2. Wired - Useful for AoE to create a surge of lightning on kill that jumps between enemies on cooldown.
​3. Ghosted (PvP) - Optional for PvP to summon a minion to take some of your incoming damage.
​
Best 5 Star Legendary Gems
1. Roiling Consequence - Increases your critical hit chance and causes critical hits to burn enemies.
2. ​Seeping Bile - Gives a 4% chance to poison enemies and slows enemies movement speed (triggers Pain Clasp).
3. Maw of the Deep - Useful at a decent rank to deal damage, gain a damage buff, draw in enemies, and stun enemies.
4. ​Starfire Shard - This gem is useful in PvP to stun enemies inside other crowd control effects like Maw of the Deep.
5. Frozen Heart (important for PvP for chill) - Gives a life shield for a medium duration and chills enemies on hit.
6. Stormvault (PvP) - Used at rank 5+ to create a storm that damages enemies over time and slows their movement speed.
7. Blood-Soaked Jade - Gives increased damage, reduces damage taken below 50% life, and increases movement speed.​​
Best 2 Star Legendary Gems
1. Pain Clasp - Gives high increased damage against enemies with a continual damage effect on them.
2. Viper's Bite - Poisons enemies and triggers the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem.
3. Mother's Lament - Increases your critical hit chance and releases a blood spike that causes enemies to bleed.

5. Fervent Fang - Gives a stacking damage increase and increases your damage against elites and bosses.​

8. Colossus Engine - Gives increased skill damage, increased area of effect of your auras, increased size (which also increases your movement speed), and knockback immunity for a medium duration with a 20 second cooldown.
​
Best 1 Star 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 strong budget 1 star legendary gem that increases your skill damage and attack speed.
​3. Everlasting Torment - Deals damage over time on crits which triggers the damage increase on Pain Clasp.
Note: You should eventually replace Everlasting Torment with a 5 star Seeping Bile which also triggers the Pain Clasp gem.
​
Best Familiars
1. Savior Duskprowler - Look for a 170+ Resilience legendary Duskprowler with the Savior passive skill for a cheat death. The 170+ Resilience is used to lower the cooldown of Savior but can be lower to make the familiar more affordable.
2. Broodtalon/Skitterwight - Look for Savior which provides a cheat death and Lingering Wounds for increased damage.
3. Rare Duskprowler - Relentless Strikes is the next best skill because it gives a chance to cast the Duskprowler shield twice. Innervate which gives a chance at resetting the player's skill cooldown, Steel Hide which gives a chance to block, Precision which gives critical hit chance, and Tenacity which lowers the cooldown of the shield are also desirable.
4. Magic Duskprowler - Duskprowler shields are hard to replace so a rare or magic ability Duskprowler is the budget option.
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 Citrines for Potency which increases harmful effects durations in yellow sockets. 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 Rubies which give life and Topazes which give resistances and socket one or two of each into your equipment. Gems give refinement based on their quality and refinement is used to increase the main stats on pieces of equipment.​
​
Gem Notes
The new Specter Glass legendary two star gem is one of the best two star gems for almost every build. The new Colossus Engine legendary five star gem provides burst damage, increased area of effect, and a size increase which also increases your movement speed. The Viper's Bite, Seeping Bile, and Everlasting Torment legendary gems deal damage over time which triggers the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem. The Everlasting Torment legendary gem can eventually be replaced with a 5 star Seeping Bile which also triggers Pain Clasp. Seeping Bile has the added benefit of giving enemies slowed movement speed inside of your Arcane Wind. The Stormvault legendary gem can also optionally be used in PvP once it's rank 5+ to slow enemies inside Arcane Wind and it also deals damage over time to enemies. The Golden Firmament legendary gem can be used in PvM for wind damage and increased evasion but in PvP its range is too short for this build. When using Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament which are critical hit chance legendary gems you should also consider rolling critical hit damage on every piece of equipment using Reforge Stones for increased damage. The Frozen Heart legendary gem can also be switched to for PvP for an absorb shield and is very helpful because it chills opponents inside your Arcane Wind storms.​
