Since sorc has backlash, and it's just not right to not keep DM at 100/100, should I go wounds>int?

If you wanna go glass cannon and assuming you're level 32, get your int to 850 buffed*.

850 is the soft cap. Spend the rest of your points into magic crit, and whatever is left, into wounds.

I've only been back for a month, but with my BW I went 780 in base int. With buffs or potions, I can hit that Int softcap (850).

Wounds are 3rd for me. Int (780ish unbuff) > Magic Crit (21%)> Wounds (4kish?)

Sorc/BW are the easiest classes to build stat wise.

They get more out of critical chance than any other class (@ 100 mechanic they gain 1.5% increased damage per crit, compared to the 0.5% increased damage per point base all classes have) Yet the game does not seem to discriminate against BW/Sorcs ability to obtain crit and have the same access to it any other class has.

Same thing with wounds, BW/Sorc are the only class that deal damage to themselves that cannot be mitigated by armor/resists/toughness, so wounds scaling on these classes are the best in the game.

Intel is their power stat, which functions just like every other class.

I would say in T3 5k wounds is a good benchmark to shoot for, my BW runs 4950 hp, 815 int w/ pot and 19% crit which could be 21% if you opt to use the emp/chaos hat instead of full devastator/duelist.

You made it to difficult

TL/DR > Glass Cannon? Hit 850 int (Unbuff or Buff hit that ****) > Magic Crit 20% > Wounds

Edit: Learn to kite

Btw I agree with Jaycob. If you have time read what he posted.
