Manual Flame Blades was in a pretty decent spot before the nerf, but in 2.7.2+ it’ll be a pretty mediocre build compared to basically any other viable wizard build.This article is about the episodes from the 2002 television series. The Firebird’s nerf was necessary, but I really wish they’d managed it in a way that didn’t also kill manual Flame Blades. Much worse than Hydras at equivalent gear/paragon. Worse than Chantodo Vyr’s at equivalent gear/paragon. Worse than Tal’s/DMO/LoD/Vyr’s FO at equivalent gear/paragon. Much worse than DMO/LoD Twisters at equivalent gear/paragon. That makes manual Flame Blades strictly worse than basically all of our other builds. With -9 GRs from the nerf, that puts manual Flame Blades down into the 120-125 range at moderate paragons and 130+ probably only with very high paragon. Could probably have gone higher if I optimized a bit and spent a bit of time fishing. I did 130 pretty easily with manual Flame Blades at 3k paragon in non-season before I switched to Mirror Images. It’s around 5-10 GRs behind Mirror Images, and importantly can clear faster on lower tiers (Mirror Images has a sort of floor on clear speed, it’s tough to get consistently under 3-3.5 min average, but Manual Flame Blades can go faster than that if you drop down a bit). Yeah I messed around with it for 110-120 speeds this season once I got sick of Mirror Images. Pushed to 130 and would hardly call it pushing as I only did 2 attempts para 1.5k so safe to say it currently is 135 viable on 2k standard.
