What are the Archon’s abilities?

Question

The description for Archon reads:

While in Archon form, your normal abilities are replaced by powerful Archon abilities

But no further information is provided. What does that mean, precisely? Which abilities are replaced, and what abilities replace them?

Answer

Taken from the Diablo Wiki:

• Arcane Blast
  Cooldown: 120 seconds
  Release a wave 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.

• Disintegration Wave
  Thrust a beam of pure energy forward dealing 1000% weapon damage as Arcane.

• Cancel
  Release the powers of the Archon and return to your natural form.

The following abilities are unlocked with the skill's runes, so the player has to choose which one to use:

• Slow Time
  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 8 seconds

• Teleport (10 seconds cooldown)
  Teleport through the ether to the selected location up to 35 yards away.

All of the Archon's skills completely replace your wizard abilities, until you revert to your normal form.
