'''Arcane Orb''' is a Secondary [[Wizard skill]] unlocked at [[clvl|Level]] 2, which explodes on touch, delivering [[Arcane]] damage.
<br><br><br>__TOC__
==Background==
The Wizard summons a glowing orb that upon touch will deal great damage to all foes and objects in its range.
<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. It was moved dropped to level 3 during the [[beta]], and when the skill system was once again overhauled for the [[Beta Patch 13]]in February 2012, Arcane Orb was classified as a Secondary skill and dropped moved to level 2.
