Mockery was not my intention.
In your video, I can’t tell if it’s in Kanai’s Cube or equipped, but I see you’re using “Aquila Cuirass” armor and “Convention of the Elements”.
When PTR 2.6.10 was announced, I also considered using A.C, but soon discovered that the new changes allowed me to move away from my usual balance of offense/defense by going for as much an attacking build as I could make.
This is my PTR 2.6.10 Wizard, Cassandra:
SKILLS
M1 : Electrocute + Chain Lightning
M2 : Arcane Torrent + Flame Ward
K1 : Hydra + Frost Hydra
K2 : Slow Time + Time Warp
K3 : Ice Armor + Chilling Aura
K4 : Magic Weapon + Force Weapon
PASSIVES
Galvanizing Wards
Unwavering Will
Power Hungry
Audacity
ITEMS
Shoulders : Mantle of Channeling
Head : Typhon’s Frons

Wrists : Ranslors Folly + (Augment + 400Int)
Belt : Hergbrash’s Binding
Legs : Typhon’s Abdomen
Feet : Typhon’s Tarsus
Weapon : Serpents Sparker
Off Hand : Etched Sigil
Neck : The Traveller’s Pledge + [Bane of the Trapped 90] + (Augment + 425Int)
Finger : The Compass Rose + [Bane of the Stricken 65]
Finger : Unity + [Bane of the Powerful 40] (Unity on Follower also)
KANAI’S CUBE
1 Deathwish
2 The Magistrate / Crown of the Primus
3 Ring of Royal Grandeur
4 Tasker and Theo
Using that item/skill selection, I was able to go high as GR100 with only Paragon 982.
The only difference between Cassandra shown above and my non-PTR Wizard Hermione is that she uses the classic Etched Sigil with “Blizzard”+“Frozen Solid” to peak at GR105 with Paragon 1500+. Other than that, they are nearly identical.
With what I learned about Energy Twister from PTR, I changed Hermione’s Blizzard skill with “Energy Twister” + “Mistral Breese”. I also swapped out “Ashangarr’s Blood Bracer” with “Ranslor’s Folly”.
And as such was able to break the self-imposed GR105 cap by moving up to GR108. I’m not a pushing player, and like to take my time, but feel confident that GR110 or even higher is in the cards.

I’m really curious to see how far I can go with this build in Season 22 when it goes live.
Good luck to you too, btw.
