Wizard Build Guides in Diablo Immortal

The Wizard class offers multiple viable builds, but their individual power is relative to the task you are aiming to complete. The following guide will help you decide which build you should choose for your specific in-game goals.

You should stick to this build for the duration of your leveling process — as you complete main quests and grind out the minor experience hurdles that unlock the next chapter of the story. Some deviation from this build is allowed as you experiment with the skills you unlock, but the choices made in the guide are meant to maximize your speed, efficiency and overall power and will get you to max level effortlessly.

You should choose the Wizard Meteor Solo Farming/Bounties Build when your goal is to get your daily tasks done on your own — such as the minor tasks from the Bounty board, the Shadow Contracts, the Side Quest daily activity, or Monster Essence grinding for Bestiary Page turn-ins. When in doubt, you can default to this build and expect reasonably good performance out of your character. It is designed to fit most PvE content done by a soloing Wizard, allowing you to crush your enemies while maintaining considerable speed — a decisive factor in effective farming.

While the build does not rely on any specific legendary powers, certain items will greatly assist its performance over others. The build carefully balances burst damage from the Meteor- Arcane Wind combo with tons of mobility, provided by The Siphon-ed Lightning Nova and the ubiquitous Teleport.

You should choose the Wizard Disintegrate Dungeon Build when your goal is to grind one of the various Dungeons in the game with a group. Note that grouping for Dungeons is not necessary on the Normal game difficulty (applicable as you level), but will be mandatory when you get to the Hell difficulties — pushing you to eventually try out this build.

The Disintegrate build is designed to tackle the vast majority of PvE content done by a Wizard in a group — contributing with the signature Wizard AoE destruction, and still bringing competent single-target damage to supplement it. The spec is very versatile and flexible according to your group's needs, and you can easily scale up your damage output or your support capabilities as necessary.

You should choose the Wizard Black Hole Challenge Rift Build when your goal is to progress on the weekly Challenge Rift leaderboard — especially if you aim to do solo progression. The build can also be adapted to group pushes of the Challenge Rift leaderboard, or you can adapt the Group/Dungeon build outlined above with similar success.

Carefully balancing between survivability, single-target competence and massive AoE damage dealing, this build is meant to support the Wizard in the scaling difficulties of Challenge Rift attempts. The build takes full advantage of the massive, build-defining pull of Black Hole, and follows it up with the signature Wizardly devastation of Meteor and Arcane Wind.

You should choose the Wizard Ice Crystal Raid Build when your goal is to conquer content that pits you against (mostly) singular, hard-hitting, and high-health encounters. Your most common usecase will be the weekly Raid, but the game features other tasks demanding similar endurance out of your build. In summation, the Wizard Ice Crystal Raid Build specializes in boss takedowns for content like the Helliquary, Kion's Ordeal, and Path of Blood.

The build shifts its focus away from the usual utility enhancements of farming builds. Instead, it fully commits to DPS output by mixing in as many damage-related synergies as the Wizard can muster, and relies fully on your reflexes and knowledge of the fight to dodge Boss mechanics and mitigate incoming attacks.

You should choose the Wizard Storm Armor PvP Build when your goal is to face off against other players in the (several) player-versus-player aspects of Diablo Immortal. The most common case are the Battlegrounds, available in two-hour windows each day, and the Vault raids, which can pit you against other players on top of (trivial) PvE content. There is also the weekly Shadow War, which pits Dark Clan against Dark Clan in a competition who will get to challenge the current Immortals.

This build is molded by the needs of ranged combatants during PvP in Diablo Immortal, while taking advantage of the hit-and-run tactics that Wizards are masters of. The playstyle relies on lots of character-centric, passive damage dealing that whittles enemies down as the Wizard phases in and out of battle at their whim.

With the proper build equipped, you will minimize survivability struggles while maximizing your overall damage and movement speed — the tenets of action RPG character building.
