So, playing around with the skillcalc...

[Magicbag]

I was looking to create a defence-oriented Wizard, throwing in about as many slows and chills and stuns as I could manage. Working off the posts I've read, I included buffs to resistance and defence where I could. Would be interested in some critique. If I've learned enough to make a pretty-close-to-decent-build so far, might be playing with the skill calc and I can dream up some other good builds.

Having only played a wizard into the 30s, I can only say that I hope you love death blossom

My current feeling at least for Hell+ is that defense is penalized heavily by enrage timers on bosses, but if you're taking a lot of damage in a co-op environment, this looks like a great/fun build.
