Studies for a Wizard, in how to maximise the use of mana when her resources are replenished.

Skill Design[edit | edit source]

Another creative spell. This one basically lets the Wizard deal substantial extra damage, but with just one spell, once in a while. A wizard who invested in this spell would have to modify her play style considerably; trying to use spells sparingly to remain full of mana, in order to score the huge damage hit possible with points in this skill. This spell is one of the spells for Diablo III showing Blizzard trying to think "outside of the box" to increase gamplay enjoyment.
