Meteor Sorcerer Fun and Easy T90+ Vault Clear

My T98 Vault Clear with Meteor Build - Fun and Easy

Having fun with the Meteor build so far despite the crit aspect bug. It seems everyone is complaining about this build being weak, lack of damage and hard to land meteor etc. But it’s not that bad for me at least for clearing tier 90-100 vaults.

My meteors doing around 0.6m-1.8m crit dmg per meteor based on how much multipliers I have and the monster/boss can receive when I cast meteor. X’Fal proc does about the similar damage on crit. I can definitely go higher with numbers if I switch to 2H staff setup (from x40 to x80 crit damage on meteor and double that on healthy targets) and replace the bugged crit aspect on amulet with x45% damage on Vuln enemies when having barrier. I’m estimating some 2.5-3m crit on CC’ed elites, but I will have like -7% cdr on all skills and less dmg reduction. The unique chest that makes teleport pulls close enemies really makes the build fun as I can dash in and pull everything and blast them down with 1 or 2 meteor casts if there’s no resistance aura monster nearby.

I have meteor, teleport, flame shield and ice armor all in very short cooldown since I’m using wand/focus setup and the build feels very proactive and action-packed for me. I just hope blizzard fix the crit chance bug on aspect so all meteors would crit like sparks!

Hey same. Met spec.

It’s not that it’s terrible in the sense it cant clear content.

It’s just blizzard does what it does better.

Charge / Hota can clear t100 with actual ease though

What bug and which aspect? Three Curses? I am also playing a Meteor build and I had not heard of a bugged aspect.

Its the Elementalist’s offensive aspect. The crit chance doesn’t seem to apply to meteor when you are wearing starfall coronet. I have submitted this in bug post Link.

Nice one, i’m using almost the same, but can you check something : can you do the same witout x’fal ring ?
For me meteor damage is about 0, it’s x’fal that make damages.

Yes you definitely can. In fact I don’t rely on X’Fal ring. For me each meteor does like around 1m crit dmg on average or more and with 4 meteors per cast its enough to kill most elites in t100 with 2 casts unless I’m very unlucky on crit. X’Fal is a good addition tho, good for sustained damage, but for me its not that important in t100s as things die very fast with meteors alone.

There is a crit aspect bug?

EDIT: just yesterday while doing the event quest I recorded a run of t100 in under 5 min with my CL/Meteor build if anyone might be interested: youtu.be/4_LbT5vhLJk
