Obliteration is a rune effect in Arcane Orb, a high cost, high damage Offensive Wizard skill.
This rune effect increases the damage of the projectile, from 175% to 228% weapon damage. Nothing else is changed about the spell other than the red coloration, and it functions just the same in cost, speed, range, blast radius, etc.
This is obviously an upgrade over the base skill, but the Arcane Nova effect is generally far more useful with the larger radius making it a much better weapon against the large groups of regular monsters (trash mobs) that this skill is best suited to devastate.
