The community gave this build a rating, making it top-tier: Great

Focused on: Strike damage and Boon support

Designed for: Raids

Difficulty:
TBD
This build was last updated on August 03, 2022 and is up to date for the October 8, 2024 patch.

Overview

Power Quickness chronomancer provides 100% Quickness Quickness uptime to its subgroup while dealing decent DPS.

This build can also easily tank. If the aggro is toughness based, simply equip some toughness. The amount needed will depend on the encounter and you and your squad's performance and skill.

As with all mesmer builds, it has access to plentiful utility should it be required, such as Feedback, Blink, or Portal Entre.

Quickness chronomancer was in the past rarely used as an offhealer, but nowadays that is a very bad option that simply cannot compete with the boons provided by reliable quickness healers.

Note that chronomancer used to be able to provide both quickness and alacrity at the same time, this is no longer possible. This build provides quickness. It is possible for chronomancers to provide Alacrity Alacrity through Stretched Time, but currently we greatly discourage anyone from playing alacrity chronomancer because of how bad it is.

Utility

Weapon Variants

Greatsword is mandatory but offhand Sword can be replaced if utility is required:

  • Focus provides the best pull in the game, which can be massively beneficial on the right encounters.

Skill Variants

Utility You can replace Mantra of Pain if needed, and Well of Calamity if absolutely needed.

  • Feedback provides a long-duration reflect.
  • Well of Precognition provides aegis to your subgroup, useful for fights like Deimos CM.
  • Mantra of Concentration provides Stability to your group.
  • Mantra of Distraction for encounters that require heavy CC.
  • Signet of Domination offers more CC than Mantra of Distraction but on a longer cooldown, which may be more suitable for some encounters.
  • Portal Entre if you need a portal.
  • Mimic allows you to get a second use out of a key skill if you'll need it more often than the cooldown. Often used together with Portal Entre.

Elite Time Warp is not required to maintain quickness, but it provides an easy way to start fights with quickness and can be used to cover up any mistakes in the rotation.

  • Gravity Well should be used if an encounter requires heavy CC.
  • Signet of Humility bigger and faster CC than Gravity Well but on a longer cooldown, which may be more suitable for some encounters.

Specializations

  • Time Catches Up - very minor dps gain if you don't need the extra CC from Delayed Reactions.


Inspiration Variant

Sometimes, utility is more important than damage. The inspiration traitline can be very powerful on encounters where you specifically need Aegis Aegis, such as Deimos, or the distortion from Blurred Inscriptions can be used to cheese certain mechanics, such as Slothasor's shake. Replaces Dueling.

  • If the feedback from Medic's Feedback might cause problems (such as as Cairn), then you can swap it out for Restorative Mantras or Sympathetic Visage depending on whether healing or condition cleansing is more useful.
  • If using a focus, then Warden's Feedback is very nice, assuming the reflects won't be an issue.
  • When running Inspiration, Signet of Inspiration is very powerful and its short cooldown makes it convenient for dealing with mechanics. If you are struggling with the timing, then Signet of Midnight is instant-cast and still has a relatively low cooldown.

This build provides Quickness Quickness through Seize the Moment. It generates so many clones that it uses Split Second off cooldown and Rewinder for spare clones when in the greatsword set.

  12. Phantasmal Berserker and start spamming Mantra of Pain anytime it gets a charge.
  13. Phantasmal Disenchanter
  14. Well of Calamity ⇒ Signet of the Ether so Signet of Ether cancels the long aftercast of Well of Calamity.
  15. Phantasmal Berserker
  16. Mirror Blade
  17. Weapon Swap Weapon Swap
  18. Blurred Frenzy
  19. Tides of Time

  • If you need a full breakdown, this is the full loop:
  1. Phantasmal Berserker
  2. Mirror Blade
  3. Mind Stab
  4. Well of Calamity

  17. Blurred Frenzy
  • Fill the gaps with auto attacks. Use Mantra of Pain off cooldown.

Continuum Split

  • When Continuum Split is almost off cooldown, prepare 3 clones to use it on greatsword. You want to use Phantasmal Berserker and Phantasmal Disenchanter twice thanks to Signet of the Ether, Well of Calamity, and Mind Stab.

Notes

  • Shield is the default weapon because it allows you to run lower boon duration, in turn doing more damage. But focus is still very good with Temporal Curtain ⇒ Into the Void to pull adds onto the boss, just remember that you need higher boon duration if you are going to use focus, check the gear section.
  • Time Warp is not necessary to maintain quickness. Once it comes off cooldown after the first use, just use it when your allies might not have quickness, for example when coming back from doing cannons on Sabetha, or when coming back from the demon realm on Deimos.
  • Blurred Frenzy and Illusionary Riposte can be used to avoid incoming damage with less of a DPS loss than dodging.

Clone Sources

The following skills summons clones

  • Illusionary Leap summons a clone on your target.
  • Illusionary Riposte summons a clone on your target if you succesfully block.
  • Mirror Blade summons a clone on your target when the projectile hits.

The following skills summon phantasms than later become clones

  • Phantasmal Berserker summons 2 phantasms that latter become 2 clones.
  • Blurred Frenzy summons a phantasm that latter becomes a clone.
  • Echo of Memory sumons a phantasm that latter becomes a clone.
    • If you block an attack with Echo of Memory, you can use Deja Vu, which sumons a phantasm that latter becomes a clone.

Shatter Usage

  • Split Second is your primary shatter and does by far the most damage. As you practice this build, you will always have 3 clones ready for it, so you're going to be using if off cooldown.
  • Rewinder should only be cast in the greatsword set shortly after Split Second, because the greatsword loop rotation generates enough clones to have 3 ready for Split Second.
  • Time Sink should be saved for emergencies to provide CC or cover quickness gaps.
  • Neither of your shatters line up perfectly in your loop, so they will drift, but you should be using Split Second at least once on each weapon set.

Crowd Control

  • Time Sink - daze.
  • Tides of Time - stun (shield only)
  • Temporal Curtain ⇒ Into the Void - pull
  • Illusionary Wave - Knockback.

If you need more CC remember you can take Gravity Well, or Signet of Humility, or Mantra of Distraction, or Signet of Domination.

OfficerAndyGentleman gave this build 5 stars • April 2024
A long-time staple of raid groups, chronomancer still brings reliable quicknessor alacrity along with amazing CC, active defence, and good access to group aegis and stability. Teleports and portals also allow for skips no other class can provide. Doesn't offer many boons other than quickness or alacrity, but when paired with a healer, the damage and utility make this an incredible pick.
5 stars
Velkix gave this build 5 stars • December 2023
0 boon duration but pretty sufficient boon uptime. Compared to Cata, both of them need an enemy to attack, but chrono doesn't need any time to set up and has much longer uptime for the invulnerable phase. If the boss blinks a lot or the fight is pretty short, chrono would be painful. Luckly, in strikes that would be unlikely to happen.
5 stars
Warming Hearth gave this build 5 stars • July 2023
Boon chrono is on a great spot these days. Being able to provide either quickness or alacrity by simply changing one trait and nothing else is absolutely amazing. It's not super easy to play, but it's a really good option. The only downside is that it cannot provide quickness/alacrity without enemies to attack, which can a minor inconvenience during phases.
5 stars
Onlywrin gave this build 5 stars • August 2020
STM / Power Boon chrono is an absurdly fun and effective build that can manage extremely high DPS even as a support. This build should be a staple of any chrono main's arsenal.
