Diablo Immortal: The Highest AoE Burst Wizard

Meteor Wizard Guide

 

Meteor Wizards use the Magic Missile primary attack along with Meteor, Arcane Wind, Slow Time, Ice Armor (PvM), or Teleport (PvP). The Terminus Facade helmet essence makes Slow Time increase your movement speed and reduces the cooldowns of your Meteors and Arcane Wind. Using the Apocalypse Root legs essence also gives three charges of Meteor which helps to lower the cooldown of your Arcane Winds when using Terminus Facade. With the Apocalypse Root essence Meteors and Arcane Winds can also create Firestorms which give increased wind damage. Overall this build is one of the best burst Wizard builds when multiple targets are close together and it's also a solid PvP build.

​​​​

Recommended Sets

1. Grace of the Flagellant (6 Set) - Increases continuous damage and channeled damage, deals bonus damage every 5 times you deal damage to an enemy, and gives a 4% chance to deal high damage with a 40 second cooldown.

2. Untouchable Mountebank (2 Set) - Great for PvP for a large absorb shield which improves your survival.

​​​

Best Curses

1. Lashed - Use at least four items with this curse to make primary attacks cause three damaging whips on cooldown.

2. Wired - Optional to create a surge of lightning on kill that jumps between enemies with a medium length 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. Blood-Soaked Jade - Increases damage, reduces damage taken below 50% life, and gives movement speed.

3. Blood Floe - Strong gem that increases damage, critical hit chance, critical hit damage, and causes bleed.

4. ​Golden Firmament - Casts multiple wind blades at nearby enemies and increases your evasion.

5. ​Starfire Shard - Deals AoE damage to nearby enemies and stuns enemies.​

6. Colossus Engine - Gives increased skill damage, increased area of effect, knockback immunity, and increased size (which increases your movement speed) for a medium duration with a 20 second cooldown.

7. Void Spark (PvM) - Deals massive AoE damage that's effective for challenge dungeons, terror rifts, and speed farming.

8. Seeping Bile (PvP) - Gives a 4% chance to poison enemies and slows the movement speed of enemies.

9. Echoing Shade (Optional PvM) - Summons 1-3 minions that attack nearby enemies with your primary attacks.​​

10. Stormvault (Optional PvP) - Deals damage over time and at rank 5+ it also slows the movement speed of enemies.​​

​​

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 also drop disabled.

6. Igneous Scorn (PvM) - Deals damage on critical hits and increases your damage after critical hits. Igneous Scorn is the lowest priority 2 star legendary gem and should be the first to be replaced with a ranked up five star gem.

7. Crimson Behelit - Strong legacy gem with increased damage and reduced damage taken that's drop disabled.

Note: Viper's Bite isn't needed to trigger the damage increase on Pain Clasp from there being damage over time on the enemy because the Arcane Wind skill with the Thistle Bloom weapon essence already deals damage over time.

​

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 - A great budget gem that deals damage over time on critical hits and increases your attack speed.

Note: Berserker's Eye is a great one star legendary 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. Any Savior Familiar - Look for any 170+ Resilience familiar with Savior for a cheat death and great passive skills.

4. 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 one of the player's skill cooldowns, 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.

5. 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 also 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 Topazes which give resistances and socket them into your equipment if they give higher refinement. Gems give refinement based on their quality and refinement is used to increase the attributes on the pieces of equipment the gems are socketed in.

​

Gem Notes

The new Haunt Coil five star gem is a great option for PvP because it can give up to 45% reduced damage taken for a duration. The fairly new Blood Floe five star gem is strong when it's combined with multiple sources of critical hit chance and critical hit damage. The Colossus Engine gem is excellent for this build because it provides high burst skill damage, increased area of effect, and increased movement speed from its size increase. The Seeping Bile gem is great for PvP because it has the added benefit of slowing opponents. When using increased critical hit chance legendary gems you should consider rolling critical hit damage on every piece of equipment using Reforge Stones for more damage.​
