Build Guide

Hello diablofans!

This is an Archon speedfarm build that uses RoRG to make use of the 2 piece Vyr bonus, that gives you all runes in Archon form. This includes less cooldown on archon, 50% more damage with archon abilities, and more! By swapping out the popular Chantodo set, you can equip In-geom and put Furnace in cube, boosting your elite damage by 50%. With the 2000% damage bonus from Firebird 6-piece and buffed Archon form, this build allows for high damage, and more uptime on Archon.

Skills & Gear: Because we are not using the Halo of Arlyse, we can wear the Obsidian ring. Therefore, we use Storm armor instead of Ice armor. The Scramble rune, along with the illusionist passive, is for extra movement speed. Which Vyr and Firebird items you equip, doesn't matter as long as you have 2 vyr and 5 firebird pieces equipped. Focus on getting cooldown, the most important stat. If you don't have traveler's pledge and compass rose, you can use hellfire amulet and unity for solo play.

When your in-geom procs, there will be no cooldown on teleport. Therefore, we use the Safe passage rune for extra survivability. Outside of archon we will be squishy, so make sure to teleport for the damage reduction. The rune choice on Archon doesn't matter, as you will get all of them. Force Weapon rune gives you some extra damage, and explosive blast is your killing ability when you need to recharge Archon.

Gameplay: activate magic weapon and storm armor every 10 minutes. Enter Archon form and look for elites. Teleport and use Q for killing. If you kill enough elites while in archon form (2-3), archon will be ready 100% of the time, thanks to In-geom. When you re-enter archon form, you will have 2 sets of archon stacks. This will give you a huge damage increase, and make you 1-shot everything in archon form. If you ever need to recharge Archon, use arcane torrent or explosive blast to proc your Obsidian ring.

Have fun!
