The Wizard summons a glowing orb that upon touch will deal great damage to all foes and objects in its range.

Skill Design[edit | edit source]

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.

It works like the Fireball of Diablo I.

In the latest build, when the spell crits, it has a silence effect, like all arcane critical hits.
