nice guide, since bounty is not necessary on S28 as advise on your previous video, most likely I would will make DH for Key farming and Wizard for solo pushing / exp
I have a question about the Tal Rasha Meteor Build. The Base build in Maxroll uses Aughild's,. However they mention using Guardians for lower Paragon (I am at 180). However they don't list how to rearrange the build to accommodate the different requirements.
As I dont have time to play season, can someone be so kind to tell me, 1) how can I use this build if i am non season only (any changes or other recommendation to get it tailored to Non season? ) 2) How can i push comfortably solo NS this build with no altars if i have 2k paragons no augments? Thanks guys! anpe
Not only is it the best performing build, it's not hard to play, and it's so satisfying to watch all those meteors. There's even a more complicated version for people who want to really push. Really Blizzard's best work. Wish they could make them all this spectacular.
One thing not mentioned is that in S28 there is an altar node for immunity to Crowd Controlling effects, which is absolutely one of the best nodes for this build. Wiz doesn't have any natural CC immunity, and we're not in Archon anywhere with Tals. Something to keep in mind there :)
Not only that, not sure if it was stated but there's also a node for resource on crit which was a stat previously unavailable for meteor wiz ( it only rolls on sources and the 2 weapons you use are staves )
I was excited to see wizard be on top for clearing 150, until I saw a DH run 150 sub 3 minutes on the leaderboards. wtf happened there? I mean Wizard sits at 3:10 currently, which also blows my mind. I can hardly get that time in a 100, much higher and I get nuked by everything.
@@Thundermikeee you need to take time and continue to push for better gear / better stats :p It gets harder and « slower » as you go since you’re gonna nit pick on stats and after that the higher they can get. So yeah just farm rifts and greater rifts until you get better loot :)
@@TheKingCoaster Maybe it bugs me because I already spent way, way more time o this season than I ever do on any other. I got to the mid 900s paragon so far, though mostly with a necro. probably right though, hardly got any ancients on this one, apart from unity
@@Thundermikeee do have in mind many people who say that D3 don’t have nothing / no content are people who usually have more than 5 hours to play each day or just speed everything up by being carried / PL whatever you want to call it. It’s in fact a modern problem In gaming to me, SO many people rush games and bad « reviews » or opinion comes from these people who spend WAY too much time trying to min max everything including the time they have with a game. You do you, but it might be 10% of a player base many times that does EVERYTHING the game has to offer and many people don’t even mind having fun they just meta rush everything because it’s « better » but as many people including me, I don’t find that fun when you have only one viable build for example to play, I prefer having fun even if I’m not the bast stats wise.
Sounds dumb but look up how to num lock skills if you haven't already. I sometimes have to when I play DH as I have paraesthesia in my left side so my left hand goes numb sometimes and pressing buttons is hard when you can't feel them lol
I don't know if this trick works in D3, but you could bind meteor to the mouse wheel for ease of use so you could spam it easier. This trick is applicable to many games, it will help you in many click heavy games.
I havent played in years, came back and started blasting with the Tal Rasha set. I feel like i'm cheating sometimes. Also, idk if I missed it in the video, but I use magic missile for quicker resource generation only because it follows up with free meteors everytime you shoot a missile. If your in a pinch with Arcane meteors taking up too much of your pool, just fire a few shots of magic missile and you are good to keep going.
@@hoptastic369 I get that, but I use the missile that freezes, and since i can long range it, it deals a ton of damage due to increased damage to impairing effects while keeping up my armor, great for using it in hallways
Im a casual seasonal player and usually play DH, but for season 27, I played this build and it was a blast to just run through and one shot everything. I will be playing it again for next season
I've not played D3 in a while and am vastly underpowered by your standards, however, I fancied playing again on seeing this video and have been having fun with a 'low level' meteor build on my Wizard. I have just under 1k Int, 950 ish Paragon points and VERY sub optimal gear, but even so, this build is still crazy and I'm having so much fun teleporting about as shit dies around me. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
Definitely going to try this out, probably after a GoD DH start. Love these easy casual builds! Could start a podcast playlist and blast away in a day or two from season start.
@sschaeppi90 WELL?!!? Did you end up being successful at achieving your goal from 3-ish months ago and FINALLY clearing your very VERY FIRST GR150 on Wiz with the Tal Rasha build?
Very little new info here. Standard Tal Rasha stuff. If I didnt already play D3 for years and know it inside out, I just want to say that your guides are detailed, to the point, and no nonsense. Great for anyone who needs build guides.
Great job communicating the differences on the various Tal's builds. Never m=played a lot of wizard builds preferring other classes, but will do that this season having been a casual player for a few years now.
Put 40-50 hrs into a AoV-FoH Crusader, and was struggling with GR105 (with mostly ancients, Caldesan buffs adding 3k+ strength, etc). Decided to switch to this build. 7-8 hours in I cleared a GR110 with essentially zero ancients, no Caldesan buffs, etc. Insanely powerful, and super fun. Thank you for your guides!!!
Thanks, buddy as a casual gamer (only get an hour and a half at most to play a night) your guide really helps me make the most of the meager amount of time to play.
I played a Tal Rasha wiz in S27 and it is super powerful already, and the theme of S27 didnt really do the build any favors. I didnt get much time to play this season but got up to about P825 or so and was able to fairly easily do a GR 127 with crappy gear only 2 125 augments. So in S28 it will be mega powerful!
This build looks awesome to play considered i don't have much time to play due to family responsabilities. Can't wait to try this weekend, Awesome vid Rax!
Thank you! I was waiting for it :D With your recent GoD video I have everything I need to blast this season! ((Since I don't understand wudijo when he speaks. I've tried to watch his video, linked on the Maxroll GoD guide. It's a 2 years old video too.))
I’ve been playing this build but find that for me, a few modifications helped. I dropped teleport to have disintegrate- Arcane. Mainly because of the Alters passability I can walk out of trouble. I dropped elemental exposure and Astral Presence for Audacity and Blur so as to have constant and unconditional bonuses. Familiar, spark-flint, Meteor-Comet, Storm Armor-Power of the Storm, Magic Weapon-deflection and Black Hole-Spell Steal round out my skills. To this I’m adding Bane of the Trapped, Bane of the Powerful and Bane of the Stricken. I have a cube-made Primal Smoldering Core, full Ancients, about half are augmented. And I just cleared GR 132 with time to spare at Paragon 1250 or so. This build is a bit squishy but not so bad I can’t stand and fight. And with the Bane’s socketed I can melt bosses at GR130+ with mild effort.
Say no more Wizard is the way to go. As a player with 12k paragon i do not care about speed anymore i just wanna chill this last season out before D4 release :)
If using black hole, spell steal seems like a good alternative. Spell steal counts as arcane which frees up teleport for whatever rune you want to use. You're getting 66% more dmg but have to trade 50% buff duration. Just a thought.
I just started building this build earlier today and got pretty lucky gambling for the pieces. Got the boots without even knowing I wouldn't be using the set ones. I got the off hand orb and a second pants. Both were converted in the cube and I got the 2 pieces I needed. Then I crafted three staves to upgrade in the cube. Got both the smoldering core and the grand vizier from those 3. Now all I need are the mempo and the halo ring.
great vid Raxx! remember you can remove astral presence and go with dominance, its also possible to skip stricken and go for bane of the powerful + conduit on FORCE WEAPON is nice af.
This video help me soooooo much! I was dying like crazy and couldnt figure out why :) Yeap you guessed it. Wrong Teleport Rune. I love this build. I dont get to play as much as I would like too but now I am ripping through the GR's. Thanks a bunch my guy :)
Amazing build guide! I played this build all last season and I plan on doing it again until I have bazooka set up. I highly recommend swapping out Astral presence for unwavering will. Even though you are very mobile the damage are when standing still is nice and the resist has a synergy with the set bonus a bit more than it normally would with another build. On a separate note, because we get ice climbers and illusory boots automatically, I can imagine the real try hards will be running without teleport for solo push and instead taking black hole on the arcane version and slowly phase through enemies.
Well I'm starting Wizard and probably going to play it the entire season. So it's good to know I picked wisely and that once I've changed from Hydra to Meteor I'll be blasting.
So, I have not played in years, and first wanted to do the hydra build, as I was building it, I got meteor stuff, so tried it out, and I'm loving it 😅 I changed quite a few skills tho. Frost hydra for cold, (stays longer, cost less) Arcane familiar, regen. Burn electrify, prefer distance over "melee" distance Electric meteor so the land faster, easier to set up. Running guardians for the double life pool, so tal amulet, and boots, and skeleton king shoulders (nothing else of interest) Still need to find "the grand vizier" Teleport and storm shield are pure utility
For the T16 variant, using the lightning rune (that makes meteor falls without delay) seems better as you will still one shot everything. Wudijo has a setup like this in his tal rasha d3planner, during S27 I personnaly used frost nova + explosive blast for the cold/fire procs , so that I can use familiar/arcanot for infinite mana. Of course lots of variants are possible for a T16 build, but the comet rune is too slow for T16 in my opinion
Part of the reason I assume you wouldn't take the lightning rune is because smoldering core makes lesser mobs walk into the meteor drop circles, so removing that delay means they have less time to move into a pack
Build is crazy. And aether Walker or whatever its called is not just a t16 setup. Did 115 in under 2 min. With less the 1k Paragon and not a single anoint.
Sweet set...but sad to see s27 alsow had a really nice meteor , would have loved a rework of the WD...it has been needing some love for so long!..great review...thanks for sharing raxx and keep it up!
As a returning player for the last season before Diablo 6 you made my choice easy. Overpower build with minimal buttons to press for console easy pick Ty
I did gr138 solo with 1300ish gons and you told me that was impressive for my TR wiz last season. I felt complete and was going to try something different this season. Was hoping my beloved Saders would be viable. But seeing the potential in TR again it may be too hard not for another shot at it with TR. Love meteor.
It basically gets rid of all the downsides through the altar - crowd control immunity, passability *and* arcane power on crit. I was considering to start with the GoD DH and transitioning to the wiz, but I think I might as well start with the latter outright.
@@BrotherBearBarras Absolutely right, Sanctified FoH made Crusader as good as other classes without a sanctified power, and now it's gone and we're left with nothing :(
Two Rasha is a strong build but I get one shot literally by anything. I cleared a GR 124 at paragon 940 but it was so brutal dying literally so easily.
This is stupid strong. I spent the weekend building up my WW and Frenzy builds and I was struggling to finish GR 100. I slapped this together in less than 2 hours and I'm already beating 115. I've died more, but I feel part of that is never really playing wizard before. it's feels so much easier to recover from those deaths. And I feel tankier to boot.
First, thank you for the guide. I was using the Star Pact and just got stuck at GR135. I'd swapped over to Comet after watching this and I'm about to hit 140. This just seems better to play on console. Unfortunately, console seriously lacks the ability to aim for groups like PC does since the targeting isn't area but a creature. It makes kiting even more important and, at the same time, harder to do.
It's not that i don't want to see your guides @Raxxanterax but every video u make i want to do that exact build..So before launch this is the final video im watching :D (this is my league start) TY for explaining so well
I'm really considering starting with the wizard... For T16 farming I would choose either Explosive Blast or Hydra. (Probably I will keep Hydra for T16)
Familiar instead of disintegrate helped a lot (less button pushing). since Meteor damage is based on weapon damage, I swapped the emerald for a ruby in my staff and shaved off almost 2 min.
Absolutely loved Tal-Meteor in s27 and s28 gonna get carried over, ohhh can 't wait dude. Love to just chill, tp, blast with some comets. its so awesome.
DH is king this season. I've only been playing for a week and I'm doing 110s in under 3 minutes with GoD / Hungering Arrow. I made a Meteor Wizard after maxing out the altar on DH and the Wiz just feels slow and clunky. It's powerful, definitely, but insanely squishy in higher GRs. Not nearly as fun as the GoD DH in my view.
Thank you very much, we need this kind content here, popular builts for next season. I hope you can do a guide for Necro one with death nova Trag'Oul and Rathma RGK
@@nickcampbell4148 hehehe i just picked a very beauty landscape from internet, but now I know its about crater lake national park!! Ty for info, I hope someday visit Oregon
I was so afraid they would nerf it on the finish line, but they didn't. Sounds just like my thing. Time to get out my wiz, didn't play her in a while! 😀
I usually go Barb, but was considering DH for a change. Now I am leaning towards this and just playing something I rarely play. It looks casual friendly and also puts on quite a light show.
This is my kind of build🤣 Diablo 3 is definitely one of my unwinding games so thus braindead gameplay is so appealing. I'm starting DH and definitely building this later into the season. Rax, amazing video as always. I don't think I'll play much D4 but I can't wait for your content covering it!
The 2 piece bonus "wording" is kind of strange. it says "immunity", yet I think I still take damage from those 4 elements. Immunity would mean no damage/god mode.. But that's not the case. I think what they meant was "take less damage from those elements". 🤔
I mained Trag Necro for this season (as usual for me lately), but after seeing the ladders, I thought ... hey, why not try Meteor Sorc for the lols... well I literally went ROFL xD Having never played the spec, with just 1.4k Paragon, and still with my 1st set of gear on so no Caldesanns and nothing really overly good (except for the Legendary gems, which I have at lvl 135-139 from my Necro), I already facerolled GR120 on first try despite a couple of clumsy deaths here and there... Not to mention getting your screen full of Meteors is hilarious xD
i remember playing the spectral blade one back in the early seasons, like 1-5, but i had explosive blast aswell as orb of infinite depth, i dont remember why or if that was even good lol, this build is a classic though! super fun
to start if you put tal amulet you can remove the belt to fit guardians in the t16 set, belt and head, since 4 items are crafted it will be easy to start
Haven't played D3 in awhile. But looks like Tal Rasha Wiz might bring me back. I usually play 2 characters per season so I might start with a GoD DH first though since its the easiest to speed. But Wiz will definitely be the push build I'll try for.
Here's the guide on Maxroll! maxroll.gg/d3/guides/tal-rasha-meteor-wizard-guide
Regarding Teleport-Calamity, does Magic Weapon- Deflection trigger the Arcane dmg buff of the 6-set?
Blackhole spellsteal is arcane, so you don't need calamity if you're using blackhole.
nice guide, since bounty is not necessary on S28 as advise on your previous video, most likely I would will make DH for Key farming and Wizard for solo pushing / exp
I have a question about the Tal Rasha Meteor Build. The Base build in Maxroll uses Aughild's,. However they mention using Guardians for lower Paragon (I am at 180). However they don't list how to rearrange the build to accommodate the different requirements.

Not only that, not sure if it was stated but there's also a node for resource on crit which was a stat previously unavailable for meteor wiz ( it only rolls on sources and the 2 weapons you use are staves )
As Oliver mentions passability! So technically us try hards can remove teleport and just break the arcane version with black hole or wave of force lol
As an old school Wizard main who comes back to D3 every few seasons this makes me happy for the last season before D4 to be so good for Tal Rasha.
Same !
I always used to play it even if it wasn’t meta so seeing it now being THE wizard build makes me feel happy too xD

Really appreciate you pointing out the low-APM build, Raxx. I've got repetitive stress injuries that make playing click-heavy builds difficult.
Completely understand. Main reason I switched to spin to win a while ago. so glad 2 spin to wins got some love this patch.
Sounds dumb but look up how to num lock skills if you haven't already. I sometimes have to when I play DH as I have paraesthesia in my left side so my left hand goes numb sometimes and pressing buttons is hard when you can't feel them lol

@Noxfelis it may work. I know some people use mouse wheel for force move so i would imagine it would work for other skills too
"If they hit you with one meteor and you die, Well you're dead right? Problem solved."
Truer words have been spoken 🙂
I asked one of my friends to go into brawler with me, my sparkflint familiar killed him with a fire meteor before I even had a chance to do anything.

Thanks Rax, I am definetely trying this build! I have always been a Crusader guy, however, Blizzard did not give them any love (again!) so yeah!
You are the absolute best! Thanks for all you do!
Such a fun build. Played it on the PTR. Can't wait.
this will be my starting class this season
had too much DH from last season
I love these chill with fewest button press builds. Top work!

I did gr138 solo with 1300ish gons and you told me that was impressive for my TR wiz last season. I felt complete and was going to try something different this season. Was hoping my beloved Saders would be viable. But seeing the potential in TR again it may be too hard not for another shot at it with TR. Love meteor.
It basically gets rid of all the downsides through the altar - crowd control immunity, passability *and* arcane power on crit. I was considering to start with the GoD DH and transitioning to the wiz, but I think I might as well start with the latter outright.
Sader doesn't get any love
@@BrotherBearBarras Absolutely right, Sanctified FoH made Crusader as good as other classes without a sanctified power, and now it's gone and we're left with nothing :(
@@olivergottkehaskamp3369 thinking the same
Two Rasha is a strong build but I get one shot literally by anything. I cleared a GR 124 at paragon 940 but it was so brutal dying literally so easily.
Great vid. Nice explanation of the variations
I so hope you get a bigger audience (subs) when D4 comes out, you deserve more views brother!
We'll keep blasting! Appreciate that buddy!
This is stupid strong. I spent the weekend building up my WW and Frenzy builds and I was struggling to finish GR 100. I slapped this together in less than 2 hours and I'm already beating 115. I've died more, but I feel part of that is never really playing wizard before. it's feels so much easier to recover from those deaths. And I feel tankier to boot.
Insane work as always Raxx
Yes, i was waiting for this One, thank you, i planned to start DH and build a Wizard for pushing, maybe i will start with Wizard... Can't wait
2w in this season n I just cleared a 145. 1st time ever. Thx u raxx for all the guides
I like the lightning comet version for speeding stuff
As recently doing a 143 GR on non seasons, Ill be rocking the wizard for solo and DH as support. RAX brining the heat!!!
I was going to play DH, but I always do. This video is why I'll be playing Wizard next season. 👍
Great video rax big fan your videos helped get a lot of knowledge in this game thank you
First, thank you for the guide. I was using the Star Pact and just got stuck at GR135. I'd swapped over to Comet after watching this and I'm about to hit 140. This just seems better to play on console. Unfortunately, console seriously lacks the ability to aim for groups like PC does since the targeting isn't area but a creature. It makes kiting even more important and, at the same time, harder to do.
It's not that i don't want to see your guides @Raxxanterax but every video u make i want to do that exact build..So before launch this is the final video im watching :D (this is my league start) TY for explaining so well
I'm really considering starting with the wizard... For T16 farming I would choose either Explosive Blast or Hydra. (Probably I will keep Hydra for T16)
Love the content man, Im new to Diablo and your vids awesome. Super informative
I'm usually in PoE over diablo until Diablo IV, but you sold me on this season in the first 40 seconds.
Familiar instead of disintegrate helped a lot (less button pushing). since Meteor damage is based on weapon damage, I swapped the emerald for a ruby in my staff and shaved off almost 2 min.
Absolutely loved Tal-Meteor in s27 and s28 gonna get carried over, ohhh can 't wait dude. Love to just chill, tp, blast with some comets. its so awesome.
I been tired of always going DH or Monk it was between wizard and Necro and I think this video just made up my mind.
Time to open another character slot by deleting thanks for the guide Raxx!
I always spin to win DH but this build looks tempting - I will try this build if I can't finish 110 rift my DH. I am not pushers like you guys.
DH is king this season. I've only been playing for a week and I'm doing 110s in under 3 minutes with GoD / Hungering Arrow. I made a Meteor Wizard after maxing out the altar on DH and the Wiz just feels slow and clunky. It's powerful, definitely, but insanely squishy in higher GRs. Not nearly as fun as the GoD DH in my view.
Thanks for the video, making me question my decision to start DH
Glad I could help ;)
Thank you very much, we need this kind content here, popular builts for next season. I hope you can do a guide for Necro one with death nova Trag'Oul and Rathma RGK
Nice picture, I live and work at CLNP!
@@nickcampbell4148 hehehe i just picked a very beauty landscape from internet, but now I know its about crater lake national park!! Ty for info, I hope someday visit Oregon
I was going to go DH but this looks good hmmmm
I watched your videos, and you are a practical Mathematician.
This is what I’m starting for season 28!
I was so afraid they would nerf it on the finish line, but they didn't.
Sounds just like my thing. Time to get out my wiz, didn't play her in a while! 😀
Thanks! This Solo build rocks. I just need to figure out the HC version.
I usually go Barb, but was considering DH for a change. Now I am leaning towards this and just playing something I rarely play. It looks casual friendly and also puts on quite a light show.
This is my kind of build🤣 Diablo 3 is definitely one of my unwinding games so thus braindead gameplay is so appealing. I'm starting DH and definitely building this later into the season. Rax, amazing video as always. I don't think I'll play much D4 but I can't wait for your content covering it!
No thank you! For the good guides and still keeping them strong :)
feel like i’ve hit a bit of a glass ceiling with my GOD demon hunter this week, excited to transition over to this. :)
thx rax the first time tryin wizard ❤
Good luck video, just dropped cosmic wings!
Grats
Aaand now i want to start a Wiz... Thanks for the guide 🤘
The 2 piece bonus "wording" is kind of strange. it says "immunity", yet I think I still take damage from those 4 elements. Immunity would mean no damage/god mode.. But that's not the case. I think what they meant was "take less damage from those elements". 🤔
Already rocking two ancient tal Rasha pieces (one dropped, one was a reforge).
This build got me so excited im redownloading D3 now lol
I mained Trag Necro for this season (as usual for me lately), but after seeing the ladders, I thought ... hey, why not try Meteor Sorc for the lols... well I literally went ROFL xD
Having never played the spec, with just 1.4k Paragon, and still with my 1st set of gear on so no Caldesanns and nothing really overly good (except for the Legendary gems, which I have at lvl 135-139 from my Necro), I already facerolled GR120 on first try despite a couple of clumsy deaths here and there... Not to mention getting your screen full of Meteors is hilarious xD
Never played on pc but on console all the button pushing kills your hands, so yeah I’m liking this minimal button build.
Wizard love finally!
This reminds me when I used to run that when it was only T6.
i remember playing the spectral blade one back in the early seasons, like 1-5, but i had explosive blast aswell as orb of infinite depth, i dont remember why or if that was even good lol, this build is a classic though! super fun
I played this on the PTR. It's also pretty fun to play.
Thank you my dude!
to start if you put tal amulet you can remove the belt to fit guardians in the t16 set, belt and head, since 4 items are crafted it will be easy to start
Spent ages farming my DH and peaked at 130. After about 5 hours Tal Rasha I clear 135 with ease! Love it so much fun
Man I can't get past 128 😭 dying ain't the issue thanks to karini, my damage does absolute fuck all 😂
Dominance passive fits also quite Well.
Nice! I am going DH for my main then I will probably do a Wiz to finish the last season.
Haven't played D3 in awhile. But looks like Tal Rasha Wiz might bring me back. I usually play 2 characters per season so I might start with a GoD DH first though since its the easiest to speed. But Wiz will definitely be the push build I'll try for.
