Posted Mar 24, 2020I'm not sure if this build is good for rift pushing without obsidian...I only spend time out of archon to feed my chantodo.
With that said you shouldn't really die after 15 secs out of archon...after 20 secs when Swami stacks wear off, sure, but until then you should be tanky as hell. What do you use for toughness?

Posted Mar 25, 2020you need 70%+ cdr before gogok to use this spec properly. with enough cdr you end up with only 2-3 seconds outside archon.

Posted Apr 9, 2020This is the part that most people seem to overlook: The reliance on max. CDR on EVERY single slot and the CDR values we can reach with Cptn. Crimson and thanks to a 20% CDR passive.
10% Paragon, 20% Cptn. Crimson, 20% Evocation, 12.5% Diamond Helm, 10% weapon, 8% CDR each on Shoulder, Gloves, each Ring and Offhand.
Multiplicative stacked this results in 70.10406....% CDR ~> 70.10% CDR
Gogok 15% this way adds another 4.48439...% CDR => 74.58845...% CDR
~> 74.59% CDR.
Not to forget: Thanks to Vyr's set we get all Archon runes, including the 100sec. base CD rune.
=> 25.41sec CD on Archon, 20 of these being spend in Archon.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We sacrifice "less CDR on gear needed" and "Zodiac" itself,
we get RoRGrandeur and therefore can equip the Captain Crimson set.
This allows us to stack enough CDR to lower the CD almost as low as a perfect switch with Zodiac ring @ 5.00 APS would allow us; while stacking Chantodo x20 anyway.
Therefore, we are forced to cube Fazula.
We Sacrifice "+50% EliteDmg [Furnace]" to cube Fazula.
We got Captain Crimson's 3p bonus: Our CDR amount also works as damage multiplier ( +74.59% to ALL damage [ Elite & Trash ] )
As bonus, 2nd effect of Captain Crimson's set also grants us damage reduction based on our cost reduction
( 10% paragon, 20% Captain Set = Another 28% damage reduction minimum).
Possible: Additional RCR rolls on:
> Shoulders (instead of the usual Armor or Life% roll)
> Offhand instead of APoC since this spec doesn't need an AP spender for Zodiac => benefit of using Spectral Blades ( with Bracers, the rune grants an shield based on 8% of our maxHP) // Else, 8% Elitedmg roll.
> Gloves (wouldn't advise to do that)

Posted Jun 10, 2020So I question this build. I’ve noticed that Fazulas improbable chain is great to get you going quickly...BUT...it resets your Archon stacks every time you drop out. It’s not possible to get super archon stacks this way...your DPS is limited to 50 stacks plus whatever you build while in form.
wouldn’t it be better to replace that with something else, and just put up with a slower build up of stacks in favor of growing them more as you go?
