2.7.0 __S-22 Wizard Update/Balance Mega thread

[Oblivion-1520]

My wishlist regarding wizard changes. There’s more to it, but if just these three happen (especially the vyr and chantodo propositions), then I’d be delighted all the same.

@Oblivion-1520

Vyr’s Amazing Arcana :

• 2 piece bonus:
  • For every 10 archon stacks gained, reduce the remaining cooldown of Archon by 10%. Archon gains effects of all Runes.
• 4 piece bonus:
  • Archon kill stacks also increase Attack Speed, Armor and Resistances by 1% per stack.
• 6 piece bonus:
  • Gain one Archon stack per hit or per tick of damage of any Archon ability. Archon stacks also reduce damage taken by 0.15% each and their damage bonus increases to 100% per stack. Increase the damage of all Archon abilities by 25% per Archon Stack.

Firebird’s Finery (proposed simplification) :

• 2 piece bonus :
  • When you die, a meteor falls from the sky and revives you. This effect has a 60 second cooldown.
• 4 piece bonus :
  • Dealing Fire damage with one of your skills causes the enemies to take 1500% weapon damage as Fire per second for 3 seconds. This effect can repeat an additional time. If an enemy is attacked with a Fire skill while burning, the enemy will become ignite, taking 3000% weapon damage per second until they die.
• 6 piece bonus :
  • Attacking with a Fire skill reduces the amount of damage you take by 60% for 6 seconds. Igniting an enemy or attacking an ignited enemy with a Fire skill increases your Fire damage by 12000% for 6 seconds.

Chantodo’s Resolve :

• Note: Firstly, the nerf should be reverted.
• 2 piece bonus:
  • Every second while in Archon form you expel a Wave of Destruction, dealing 8000% weapon damage to enemies within 30 yards. This damage scales with attack speed.
  • Every time you hit with an attack while not in Archon form, 8000% weapon damage is added to the Wave of Destruction, stacking up to 10 times. For each stack, reduce all of your damage (except for Wave of Destruction) by 7.5% while in Archon form.
