WIP'''Arcane Orb''' is a Tier 3 [[skill]] from the [[Wizard]]'s [[Arcane skill tree]], exploding on touch, delivering [[Arcane]] damage. ==Background=={{Skillbox|game= Diablo III|portrait= Wiz-arcane-orb1.jpg<!-- |portrait-width= -->|active= Active<!-- |name= -->|ranks= 1|user= Wizard|tree= Arcane|description= An orb of pure energy explodes on contact dealing arcane damage to all enemies in the blast area. Critical hits from arcane damage silence targets for 4 sec. |type= Direct Damage|quantity= 12-16 damage|effect= Circle AoE impact|school= Arcane|resource= Mana|cost= 18|cast-time= Instant|duration= None|cooldown= Unknown<!-- |synergies= Link them -->}}The Wizard summons a glowing orb that upon touch will deal great damage to all foes and objects in its range. ==Skill Design==A glowing orb of energy travels about 10 yards, before bursting in a nova of destruction. The spell looks something like the D2 [[Sorceress]]' [[Frozen Orb]], but without the spray of ice spears as it flies across the room. The spell only allowed one point in the [[BlizzCon 2008]] demo, but the final game will surely allow more than 1 rank to be added to it. The way it works is not unlike the Fireball of Diablo I. ==Skill Rank Table==* '''Rank 1:''' 12-16 arcane damage, 18 mana.Only Rank 1 is currently known. ==Synergies==* None known. ==[[Rune|Skill Rune]] Effects==* None known. ==Development==Arcane Orb was first shown at [[BlizzCon 2008]] when the [[Wizard]] was unveiled. It's still assumed to be available as of 9 July 2009. <!--==Trivia==''Hide this section unless there really is some trivia about the skill.
