You don't need to be standing next to him to blizz :P
But like said, if it does hit multiple times its a bug for sure.

just completed a bdd run thro and no word of a lie when mobbed ..blizz was missing all in aoe 50% of time gave up casting it...imo there was nothing wrong with blizz,but i dont have ms ...i think its wrong to start nerfing the damage of the 100+mc damage of top wizzies (thus affecting us lower in the food chain)...if these wizards were op ...its because they are the top lvl wizzers in game :RpS_sad:

well i can upload a bigger screenshot..but there is no damage or stun the majority of the time B/H /check debug screen gives me fps in top corner (60) how does this affect my blizz not hitting didley squat?
the mobs that surround me and actually hit me remain unaffected by 6 casts of blizz
is this correct

I think you are getting confused and possibly missing some posts in this thread, my reply about the debug screen was not to you (I never even quoted you)
The new /check debug screen command is only to show live FPS (nothing to do with Blizzard)
There are 100s of image hosting sites on the internet (imageshack being one) and you can also upload and attach the image to a post here, the full size image will be in your client folder
As I have said Blizzard is hitting fine for me and afaik most other players, (it hits 3 times and it stuns) are you sure you have not turned off show damage in the option/settings menu
Edit
What rain said is correct, if you move or get attacked while casting Blizzard it will fail to hit or stun (this is how it works on official servers and on official source code)

ok yes my bad then ...just got used to casting whilst being hit with success....cant think of many places im not going to be hit whilst casting ,so now it is a pretty redundant spell and we have gone full circle with wizzes imo..still dont know what the original problem was,only know this char is losing its appeal again...thx for your patience with my posts 8)
The issue was it was bugged, wizard where able to cast other spells and move before Blizzard finished, this was unfair on other classes.
If you have magic shield up do you still flinch? I ask because it's been a while since I played a wiz and can not remember.

From what i have seen this is now a ranged spell not a cast on top of you spell.
There are ways to make it useful close range hocus.
Find a 1 hit spot drop a pet behind you and boom. free to cast at will with crazy damage.

All it means is you cant stand in a lure and blizz + ff.
Blizz + met strike do absolutely insane damage (and met slows) so there should be a price for this, and that price is that you need to be more strategic with it.
For those wizzies that like surrounding themselves with mobs and steamrollering the lure, you still have FF which you can spam, which also just happens to do pretty mental damage in the right kit.
Any suggestion that wizzies have 'gone full circle' is ridiculous. They can still 2 hit 45+ warrs without red, if theyre skilled.

you are referring to top end wizzes with 100mc+ my lvl 2 blizz could be out potted by most 40+ players 1 v1 even with mb 12-12mc up i have 75mc......so the ability for an end game wiz to do really nice damage was taken away (long range) and we are back to flamefield close range with warrs and the like,,thats full circle imo and not ridiculous...my posts generally relate to pve but yes pvp wise i can see how some would have hated the potentency of these spells..much the same as i dont like shadow step 1 hits ...flame sword 1 hits tdb spams arrowbarrage etc its a balancing act and not easy...at least the price of these ranged spells should now fall...70m for blizz?? ridiculous

Blizzard / Met Strike bugs
This skill is meant to root you to the ground while it's in effect, and if hit or the player moves, the skill is cancelled.
As it stands now, the wiz can can cast a spell upon himself, and then FF while the blizz or met is still active, all while taking hits from players.
So, should this be correct that 2 spells can be used together to double the damage. And even when taking damage, the spell is still active.
i now see where this change came from.... either tori or depress has an issue with something that threatens thier hold over this game..and all of a sudden its changed in the next patch...should have been left well alone ...dont care what it was like on other servers..with it these players were still caning and now can cane even more.....the unfair to other players mentioned was actually toriblack and depress lol
