In Diablo 3 Season 2.3, the “Archon” talent build is considered one of the strongest variants for the Wizard. You need these items, talents, and tactics for the Archon.
It is amazing how sophisticated Diablo 3 is. What seems like a simple and rather blunt slaughter at first glance surprises in the details, as one and the same class can differ greatly when it uses different items, passives, and skills. In Blizzard’s title Diablo 3, fine-tuning has become a science in itself. The items and skills have various synergy effects; one set is suitable for this variant, the next for another. And it is crucial to squeeze out every ounce of damage to tackle the increasingly tougher rifts.
Everything is changing: With Patch 2.3, “3 passives” special properties were added via the Horadric Cube, and in Season 4 fresh legendary items were introduced.
The class “Wizard” is currently considered weaker alongside the Crusader; many are having trouble approaching the higher rifts. This is reflected in the leaderboard, where the Barbarian and Monk dominate.
YouTuber Fevir has now created an incredibly detailed video guide for the Wizard, focusing on the “Archon” build. He considers this the likely strongest Wizard build in Patch 2.3 of Diablo. With the Archon, the Wizard becomes a mid-range specialist, mowing down enemies near him with a kind of “laser beam” in a Cyclops-like manner.
Here is the detailed video:
The central items for the Archon are 6 pieces of Vyr’s Amazing Aura, along with the 2-piece set Chantodo’s Resolve. The exact details, including how to choose the Archon’s Paragon levels and skills, can be seen in this chart (a hearty click on the link enlarges it.)
