Archon

Archon Buff

Tooltip

Archons are a type of Buff that augment your Elemental prowess with Spells. There are Archon Buffs related to each Element: Flame Archon, Ice Archon, and Lightning Archon.

By default each Archon Buff lasts 10 seconds, but will be removed early if you use any non-instant Attack.

You cannot gain any Archon Buff while you already have one, or during a recovery period after you lose one, which lasts 20 seconds by default.

Archon is a category of buffs that converts all elemental damage from spells to a specific element and grants extra damage and ailment bonuses to that element, but prevents you from dealing any other type of damage.
