Build Guide
This build is for PTR testing, if numbers won't change it will remain very strong on live, maybe even beating MH CoE Archon
Line up multipliers. Which isn't that easy to make every multiplier work in that tiny time window.
Wave of Force buff puts Black Hole to shame in big density (+4 instead of +3 for each mob and much bigger AoE). Up to 300%++ additive dmg in good rifts.
The whole build is possible with DMO as well. Both sets have their pros and cons.
Tested only on Firebird. The announced build here is tested in 2man with supp monk.
Solo variant (not tested yet, but much less dmg since you need that Halo combo defense solo):
Wave of Force to Ice Armor, Cube Halo of Arlyse instead of RoRG, Cube Illusory Boots instead of Swami, equip Firebirds Boots
or
Wave of Force to Ice Armor, equip Halo of Arlyse instead of Compass Rose, use the best Necklace you have instead of Travelers Pledge (e.g. Hellfire Amulet)
The Endless Walk set is more forgiving if you die but probably deals a tiny bit less dmg than The Swami (since you can't save stacks from last cycle)
If you use Endless Walk you can disable Archon after 4-5 seconds and maintain your orb defense and don't need to re-build the stacks after Archon expires, which I think is a big plus here.
Final Words:
As long as Blizz won't get it that all lingering Wiz buffs will be better if utilized with Archon Stacks it will never disappear from wizards skillbar...
Still not finished testing. Trying out things with Leorics Crown instead of Swami to get more AD, which I hope is better so I can use Archon only for buffing some cycles and drop out of Archon immediately afterwards.
