Not understanding force armor...
Ok my wiz is sitting at 45k hp with 200ish resists. Force armor is supposed to reduce hits to 35% of my health. Why do some mobs take more than 35% in a hit? Yeah I know they changed it so we can have the tremendous joy of being insta-killed, but what about the mobs that take 75-90% of my hp in a hi

Clarification on Wizard damage
Now I know that attack speed is not crucial in most circumstances, the wizard should be equipped with a high base weapon damage to get the best of casted spells. However, most magic/rare weapons come with an extra boost of magic damage such as "+10 ~ 20 cold damage". Does this also contribute as a m

Back to Farming?
I'm guessing I'm heading back to farming the Butcher in Inferno. I made it past Maghda, but it was torture getting there. She was cake.

Cold Blooded passive and "chilled".
So, this passive increases damage against chilled and frozen targets by 20%. But the only spell I notice that specifically says it "chills" mobs is Ice Armor.
