<blockquote>''There was one scenario area in the desert (shown in the gameplay movie) where about five Dune Dervishes burst out of the ground at once. I didn’t think to try it at the time, but in retrospect I wish I could have herded the Dervishes into a cluster, and then tried throwing in some Arcane Orbs. Just to see if my Orbs would have been bounced around like pachinko balls.</blockquote>
Arcane Orb was available in the [[BlizzCon 2010]] demo, but wasn't one of the Wizard's starting skills.Skill tiers were removed for the July 2011 Press Event, and Arcane Orb became a level 8 skill.
