Anyone running a Archon build successful with 1.7.1.7 ?

[Dbuddy]

hi!

My first Archon build (only 110k dps unbuffed for MP 0), but i am not sure if am doing something wrong...
Need to fix many deaths per hour before i upgrade my items.

As recommended "Min Distance before kite" is set to 0 (default settings)
Is there anything else i can do?

Shall i turn avoidance completely off?
just watched the bot fighting rare mobs with arcane, kiting around like a stupid instead of just killing them within 1 second.

is this setup ok?
Zauberin - Spielguide - Diablo III

50%+ crit chance? (with my starting equip/paragon level equip i only got 37,5%)

Any help would be very nice!

greets

Hy fellow wizard, i have a bit different spec then u, using Electrocute-Forked Lighting and Storm Armor-Shocking Aspect, also on Magic Weapon i have Blood Magic.
Can u give some more info on your other stats like AR,HP,MS,CD,...
I also have the same CC as u but i do have a weapon with 2.8 LS and 180k dps. Also u might wana try using the legendary weapon Maximus for you Enchantress as u will have one more Demon fighting for you.
Don't turn of avoidance as it might increase your deaths, but the kite needs to be set to 0.
Only thing that cross my mind is that u have low dps and u can't actually melt and elite in 1 sec or having less then 24MS and ur Archon is falling of and u spam your Shock Pulse and it just don't do enough damage.
With Electrocute and Storm Armor u will spam those lightings and killing of some low hp mobs before they even start attacking you.
Try changing your spec a bit and if the problem with many deaths is still present only way is to upgrade your gear.

thanks, but i think i got some troubles with demonbuddy and the combat routine.

i watched the bot while archon: he goes in melee range and attacks succubi with arcane strike... which is completely stupid.
I know, the damage of arcane strike is also nice, but he always stay in range whilst archon... melee range means some deaths per hour...

Run 1.7.1.4; handles Archon better than 1.7.1.7. I'm yet to try latest version though.

My bot lags for some reason so I die a lot but I'm on 40 million an hour with 17 deaths an hour running archon. I went back to 1.6 though. 1.7 just can't kite properly.
