How do wand Templar actually hit things without accuracy nodes?

What build has 10k dps for their AOE? explain the support gems as well

Its true, some builds can have up to 10K AoE DPS, but those builds are purely focused on damage, the point of the wander is NOT to do massive damage, but instead balance doing lots of damage with having high survivability.

The wander is NOT meant to be Top DPS in Softcore, it's meant to be an end-game built around hardcore. If you one-shot mobs, but also get one-shot, it won't work for hardcore. It's a matter of prefernce.

More importantly, its a class that some people find more enjoyable than a Freezing Pulse spammer or a Ice Spear Totemer and because of that, some people will play a Wander over those classes.

i currently have 14.1k on cleave (with RT), last ladder i had 220k on cleave on diamond flask, 45-50k without flask effect. and before i did the diamond flask thing i had 21k with RT last ladder.

Groundslam builds can get waay over 10k dps in the endgame.

Freezing pulse witches can do more than 20k if they shotgun the pulse with LMP.

Flicker strike as well, if you consider that to be AoE, i wouldn't use it that way because of the desync problems though

NONE of these are glasscannon and dps focused.

Pretty sure there are more i am overlooking now, but those are the main ones, also i reckon you can get past 10k with lightning strike too.

Wait so why is Lightning Arrow considered such a strong build if the dps numbers are nowhere near that? Ah, LMP and Chain. Same goes for Power Siphon I bet.

Actually i think some LA builds or BA builds can break 10k, especially when avatar of fire is back.

1.) The wand templar blows... I don't get why do many people do it. Every game someone is a wand templar and every game they have to be carried by the group.
2.) Of U insist, you get a few accuracy nodes.
3.) Resolute technique works as well.
4.) I would love to see a video of a wander soloing. It doesn't exist.. why? cause it relies on the group to carry it. Period.

1. Then they aren't geared correctly. With gear it's a hugely powerful build and I do more damage than anyone I've grouped with and provide more utility.
2. You will need about 30% accuracy with some accuracy on gear, it's worth the points.
3. Absolutely not. This build is built around critting so getting Resolute Technique will actually lower your dps.
4. I solo all the time. As long as you have Summon Skeleton totem, you can solo pretty much anything.

This.

I'm level 63 in rather shitty gear and I do 2k dps on my aoe PS 5L and 1.8k dps on my single target PS 4L. My resists are capped and my hp is 2.5k. I can only run 6 auras (only 1 % based) though as I said my gear is shit.
