    posted a message on Help me improve my Fire Archon
    Sorry its late, so im gonna be quick and blunt.



    • You have too much HP (vitality and %life make sheet toughness increase a lot but its pointless if your armor and resists are low). You want around 300-350k life, 10k+ armor, 2200+ all res.
    • socket on pants and chest
    • roll that vit on MM to CDR
    • Better ammy, %fire is better than CDR
    • get a fire SOJ
    • If you have vyrs gloves and a thunderfury i wouljd experiment with using them and adding in crimson set. this also frees up shoulder slot for aughilds which lets you use strongarm bracers in gloves. Not sure which will win out in damage output, magefists of thunderfury. You want around 55% CDR if you going MM/Archon hybrid (dunno what you currently have).
    • Make an aughilds helm with 6% CC
    • Int, vit, res, armor is 4 stats you want on belt
    • string of ears belt if you wanna keep your current item setup.
    Lots of other posts similar to this so you can have a look at them as well

    posted a message on Awesome mirrorball, looking for advice
    TBH i wouldnt waste that mirrorball with rerolling it to vit. If you're using a mirrorball you should be using MM significantly in your build, otherwise a triumverate is almost always better. So i would save this, or roll it now with +MM damage and wait for a good triumverate to drop and roll to vit or w.e you want

    You can get enough vit from lots of other gear, i wouldnt waste a potential skill roll on a source

    posted a message on Using the 'Jaetch' fire-archon build need some help, Jaetch? Help xD
    If wanting to use his build you need to focus on +fire damage, and have CDR at 50-60. your gear is all over the place atm.

    You Have +30% lightning, 23% arcane and +18% fire damage. which means your archon is doing lightning damage. If you want to use MM you need to change ammy, belt and SOJ. any ring with CD and CHC will be better than soj. try find an ammy with fire damage, int, CD and CHC. Almost any belt will be better than the one you have, but if you can get a hellcat or a witching hour, use one of those. Those are the major issues with your gear, then you just want to refine, find a better TF etc.



    Elemental exposure is not very useful as all your damage in this build is fire, so changing to conflagaration or unstable anomaly is much more useful.

    My thoughts after a quick look, GL! :)

    Going perm archon means you have to sacrifice quite a lot in terms of sheet dps. Captains, Bornes and Vyrs are the three sets that are absolutely crucial, with aughilds being a nice addition. Gloves of worship can also be nice when you get an empowered and changing the rune on archon to teleport as you will have ~85% CDR when its active (with almost maxed CDR gear).

    Heres my build as a reference:http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/WiNaXteR-6770/hero/44537218

    Try and get Int and CDR on all your gear as well, then fit in crit damage and crit chance where you can. Sheet dps is pretty useless in archon build and will be much lower than some other builds.
