                                   SETS

Vyr’s Amazing Arcana :

  • 2 piece bonus:
    • For every 10 archon stacks gained, reduce the remaining cooldown of Archon by 10%. Archon gains effects of all Runes.
  • 4 piece bonus:
    • Archon kill stacks also increase Attack Speed, Armor and Resistances by 1% per stack.
  • 6 piece bonus:
    • Gain one Archon stack per hit or per tick of damage of any Archon ability. Archon stacks also reduce damage taken by 0.15% each and their damage bonus increases to 100% per stack. Increase the damage of all Archon abilities by 25% per Archon Stack.

Tal-Rasha’s Elements :

  • 2 piece bonus:
    • Damaging enemies with Arcane, Cold, Fire or Lightning will cause a Meteor of the same damage type to fall from the sky. There is an 8 second cooldown for each damage type. Casting an elemental skill may reduce the remaining cooldown of meteors of the same damage type by 0.50 second.
  • 4 piece bonus:
    • Elemental attacks increase all resistances and meteor damage by 25% for 8 seconds, this effect stacks four times. Additional attacks will refresh the effect.
  • 6 piece bonus:
    • Elemental attacks increase total damage done by 1100% for 8 seconds, this effect stacks 10 times and will refresh upon additional casts. Casting a different elemental attack from the previous attack will grant two stacks instead of one. At ten stacks, manually casting meteor will grant it the meteor shower rune. This effect has a 45 second cooldown.

Firebird’s Finery (proposed simplification) :

  • 2 piece bonus :
    • When you die, a meteor falls from the sky and revives you. This effect has a 60 second cooldown.
  • 4 piece bonus :
    • Dealing Fire damage with one of your skills causes the enemies to take 1500% weapon damage as Fire per second for 3 seconds. This effect can repeat an additional time. If an enemy is attacked with a Fire skill while burning, the enemy will become ignite, taking 3000% weapon damage per second until they die.
  • 6 piece bonus :
    • Attacking with a Fire skill reduces the amount of damage you take by 60% for 6 seconds. Igniting an enemy or attacking an ignited enemy with a Fire skill increases your Fire damage by 12000% for 6 seconds.

Firebird’s Finery (proposed overhaul) :

  • 2 piece bonus:
    • When you die, a meteor falls from the sky and revives you. This effect has a 60 second cooldown.
  • 4 piece bonus:
    • Attacking with Fire skills creates a shell of fire around you that reduces the amount of damage you take by 60% for 5 seconds. While the shell is active, nearby enemies take 2000% weapon damage as Fire per second. You also recover 1.5% of your health whenever enemies take Fire Damage. This effect cannot happen again for 15 seconds after you have recovered 30% of your maximum health.
  • 6 piece bonus:
    • You emit missiles and bolts of Fire that deal 500% weapon damage as Fire whenever you cast Fire Skills. While the Fire shell is active, your Fire attacks deal 12000% more damage and enemies within 60 yards take 1000% weapon damage as Fire per second.

Delsere’s Magnum Opus :

  • 2 piece bonus:
    • Casting a signature or arcane spender skill reduces the remaining cooldown of Slow Time by three seconds. Also reduce the cooldown of all skills by 20% while within a Slow Time Sphere.
  • 4 piece bonus:
    • You take 60% reduced damage while you have a Slow Time sphere up, and allies within the sphere and for 5 seconds after leaving the sphere take 30% reduced damage.
  • 6 piece bonus:
    • Casting Slow Time will also create a Time Bubble on you that’ll follow you for 15 seconds and any additional Slow Time casts will refresh the duration. While you have slow time active, your signature and arcane spender skills deal 10,000% more damage. Enemies under at least two slow time bubbles take 30% more damage from all sources and have the chance of taking damage from your signature and arcane spender skills twice.

The Typhon’s Veil :

  • 2 piece bonus:
    • Mirror Images gain the Duplicates rune and last until they die, and spells casted by Mirror Images will deal 50% of the damage of your own spells. Mirror Images will summon a Hydra whenever you do.
  • 4 piece bonus:
    • Increase the number of heads on multi-headed hydras by two. Damage taken is reduced by 10% for each Mirror Image and Hydra active. Mirror Images take 5% reduced damage for each Mirror Image and Hydra active and half of your shield effect extends to your Mirror Images.
  • 6 piece bonus:
    • You deal 750% increased damage for each Hydra head alive, your hydras instead gain 1300% increased damage for each Hydra head alive. Mirror Images cast arcane spenders when you do.

Chantodo’s Resolve :

  • Note: Firstly, the nerf should be reverted.
  • 2 piece bonus:
    • Every second while in Archon form you expel a Wave of Destruction, dealing 8000% weapon damage to enemies within 30 yards. This damage scales with attack speed.
    • Every time you hit with an attack while not in Archon form, 8000% weapon damage is added to the Wave of Destruction, stacking up to 10 times. For each stack, reduce all of your damage (except for Wave of Destruction) by 7.5% while in Archon form.
      • Note : The reason I’m suggesting this is because I believe this is the only way of getting the Archon abilities buffed without heavily nerfing Chantodo (or having vyr increasing archon skills exclusively). After all, Chantodo is powerful to the point that it deals the vast majority of Vyr archon’s total damage. As such there is almost no way that Blizzard would buff the archon abilities without nerfing Chantodo; and while I would be fine with that (as I don’t really like relying on Chantodo), I know there’s a great deal of folks who enjoy playing the Chantodo Vyr Archon build. So, I believe having Chantodo itself lower the damage output of all abilities except for the Waves of Destructions is the best middle ground as it solves the potential issues.
        • Chantodo’s no longer a mandatory set for Vyr Archon and instead is a viable alternative.
        • Chantodo archon shouldn’t be a predominant build with the other sets.
        • Vyr, and by extension Archon, can be tweaked more substantially without worrying about Chantodo Vyr Archon becoming too powerful.
