Gems:

- Helm: Diamond (CDR)

- Armor: Topaz (Int)

- Weapon: Emerald (CHD)

Gear Notes:

- Your highest +Elemental% has to be Lightning% (this is mandatory! the dmg of your Archon is dynamic and refers to your highest rolled +Elemental%)

- Arcane Power on Crit on both Helm and Offhand (at least one roll is required)

- As on every Archon Build, CDR is the most crucial stat and should be #1 priority

- In-geom and Starfire can be switched - equip the better one, cube the other

Variations:

Skills:

For passives, you can use Illusionist instead of Power Hungry or Unstable Anomaly for the movement speed buff, which is nice for picking up items etc.

Frost Nova: Frozen Mist is just there to proc the cold Tal'Rasha stack, you can switch it to any other skill which procs TR, for example Blizzard: Snowbound. However, Frost Nova has no Animation and doesnt cost resource, therefor imo its the best choice.

Avarice Band:

You can drop Obsidian and use Avarice Band like i did in the video. This requires you to kill at least 1-2 elite packs during Archon since you cant manually reset it with Arcane Torrent. This can be a problem in bad rifts which lack elites but it shoud work fine in most of the rifts.

If using Avarice, i recommend to replace Zeis' or Trapped for Boon of the Hoarder - your damage will still be more than enough.

In the video, i used a little different setup with Electrocute: Chain Lightning, which works ok and doesnt require APoC, but i would definitely recommend using Arcane Torrent.

Build Guide

Rotation:

Keep up Energy Armor and Magic Weapon
Have 3 Tal'Rasha stacks from Arcane Torrent / Teleport / Frost Nova before you enter Archon
Morph into Archon (this will give you the 4th Tal'Rasha stack)
Kill enemies with Archon Desintegration (right mouse button)
Keep distance from enemies to proc your Zeis' / Starfire / Power Hungry
Try to kill 1-2 elite packs before Archon ends

This is a variant of the known Vyr'Rasha Build, which combines the new Manald Heal with a few range-multilpliers. The damage is just insane - in the video i didnt use Zeis' nor i spent any paragons on mainstat and it absolutely crushes T13.

Update:

Changed Prismatic Armor to Force Armor to prevent getting oneshot at higher tier GR's
Changed stat priority on Amulet to Intelligence (instead of Lightning%) due to the Lightning% bug - keep in mind you have to have one Lightning% roll on Bracers whatsoever to make Archon deal Lightning damage

LordFluffy made a great video, explaining the important things of the build in detail. The video can be found here.

Thanks @LordFluffy!
