The only times I died was due to weird lag issues that I had all night. For all wizards out there who didnt know - the familiar with the sparkflint rune & magic weapon = HUGE dmg buff. . .
I found that putting Topaz in all items classified as "other" and the biggest ruby I can find in my grim wand massively improves Damage output. (http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/calculato...iXROm!YcX!aaaa - Build im currently using.) We need char profiles to really show builds. I found that sticking a flawless topaz into a socketed item can often out perform the item of the same type with just a damage boost.

I've switched off Magic weapon as I just felt she was blasing everything away instead opting for Arcane Armor as this boosts my armor to over a thousand, even with the glass canon passive skill. My Damage is around 450 at the moment and considering nothing can really go toe-to-toe with her at the moment I dont see the point in using skills that are going to boost my damage further, maybe on nightmare, hell, inferno.

I am thinking of swapping out Arcane Hydra for Meteor...
