Arcane Blast
Archon is a Mastery Wizard skill unlocked at Level 30, which transforms the Wizard into a being of pure energy. While in Archon form, the Wizard has access to a powerful set of unique Archon skills.
Archon Blast is an ability the Wizard gains access to only while in Archon form. This ability works like a very short range Nova effect, blasting a high damage explosion that hurts nearby enemies, within about 9 yards of the Wizard.
Archon Blast is available in all rune effects of Archon, as it's one of the three basic Archon spell abilities, along with Archon Strike and Disintegration Wave.

These are the five Archon rune effects. Archon Blast is available in all five of these forms.
Refer to the Archon rune effects article for thorough descriptions of all five rune effects in this skill, including screenshots, videos, strategy tips, and other related information.

Archon Abilities[edit | edit source]
The following abilities are only available while in Archon form. Other normal Wizard skills can *not* be used while in Archon, so there is a trade off to this form; much higher damage, but with a limited variety of offensive skills, and little or no defensive/movement skills.
Arcane Blast | Cooldown: 120 seconds Release an explosion of pure energy dealing 100% weapon damage as Arcane to all nearby enemies.
|
Arcane Strike | Strike the ground in front of you, causing 1000% weapon damage as Arcane to enemies in the area.
|
Cancel | Release the powers of the Archon and return to your natural form.
|
Disintegration Wave | Thrust a beam of pure energy forward dealing 1000% weapon damage as Arcane.
|
Slow Time (rune effect) | Cooldown: 120 seconds Project a bubble of warped space and time that moves with you, slowing the movement and attack speed of enemies by 40% and the speed of projectiles by 60% for 10 seconds.
|
Teleport (rune effect) | Cooldown: 120 seconds Teleport through the ether to the selected location up to 20 yards away.
