Wizard Explosive Blast Farming Build With Tal Rasha Set

Tal Rasha's Elements set is one of the signature sets in the Diablo franchise, and has been used in numerous builds and metas over the years in its Diablo 3 iteration. One of its undeniable applications is the so-called "Flashfire" Wizard — an ostentatious, Explosive Blast-focused build that relies on snowballing power. This guide will cover all of its available playstyles. The base one presented on this page is the Greater Rift Speed Farming Variation, but this build also has a Nephalem Rift Farming Variation; follow the links above to the respective alterations.

The basic skill setup of the "Flashfire" Explosive Blast Wizard is displayed below. Read the dedicated Skills page for detailed information on choices, alternatives and build customization.

Season 27 comes with the theme of Angelic Crucibles — consumable items that empower Legendary items with perfected Ancient-level stats, as well as infuse them with one of three unique, powerful, class-specific abilities at random.

Unfortunately, Explosive Blast-based builds do not have a great way of utilizing the three Sanctification powers. Thus, you should simply use Angelic Crucibles on an item that crosses over most (if not all) variants of a build, and is also an item that is relatively harder to perfect than other slots (since sanctifying an item maximizes its stats). The Sanctification power outcome does not matter. In the case of this build, a good candidate for Sanctification are your weapon, Deathwish, or a jewelry piece like Convention of Elements.

You can read more on Angelic Crucibles and the sanctification process in our dedicated Angelic Crucible Mechanics guide.
