One of our community members, J_Halver, shared their Celestial Chronomancer build that they use to solo any bounty in the game, be it champions or legendary ones.
While Chrono might be one of the more daunting Mesmer Elite Specialisation to master, the build itself allows for making and recovering from mistakes. Even more, by learning a couple of simple combos, you'll be soloing Legendary Bounties yourself. Or if you'd want a more relaxed challenge, soloing Heart of Thorns Hero Points for some extra unidentified gear.
You can find the build link in the pinned comment, and the full explanation of gear, traits, utilities, and playstyle in the video!

Perfect timing, was just in the process of making my OW Chronomancer :D Thanks for the video!

@jmoore9157 Ай бұрын

rune of the trapper are expensive to make so I went with rune of the sunless (less than 37 S for a full set of 6). Plenty of condition damage with some incoming condition damage reduction to boot. Very fun build. Thanks

@phandrel Ай бұрын

Oh yes, that's definitely a more cost-effective option. Gonna note it down, because I'm working on a "cheaper runes" video. thanks!

Excellent build and explanation, thank you for sharing, the SOTO grind had me take a long break but it's time to have a blast with this chrono build

Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did!

@wuzzle5261 Ай бұрын

YES! YES YES YES! I've been absolutely adoring all aspects of Chrono for the last few months, but I couldn't make it work tooooooo well in harder open world stuff. I'm trying this *immediately*

Very cool! I was just lamenting that my power chrono feels squishy in open world so I’m excited to give this a try. I’m interested to see how it compares to power mirage which has great survivability also. Thanks for sharing!

I met the legend creating this awesome build while trying it out in the game!! How lucky 😊❤❤❤

@phandrel Ай бұрын

Awesome! It's been my go to for harder bounties, although I've been also experimenting a bit with mirage again.

@Havoqq Ай бұрын

Just tried the build and I love it. Benched 23.2k on the golem without swapping weapons, simply summoning and shattering stuff with CS and Ether. Nothing too fancy. Works like a charm while Champions are a complete joke. Went and killed the Champion Nature Elemental in Dragonfall as my first test, it's not even close to being a challenge. I like this build much more than Cele Mirage because even with staff I can burst harder with shatters.

@phandrel Ай бұрын

Awesome! Ever since being told about this one, I can't swap back to others when the stakes are high. I'm playing around with Mirage a bit, but when a boss gets real tough, it's instant switch to this build.

How are you generating Quickness if you are running Chronophantasm?

@fullmetalathlete Ай бұрын

Phantasmal Haste in the illusions trait line. You get a couple seconds for each phantasm you spawn so if you do the rotation right you can generate a bunch of uptime for yourself.

@vicious9734 Ай бұрын

Hi Phandrel, i gotta ask though, do you think that it is better than the solo herald?

@phandrel Ай бұрын

It's way more intense, but I believe it has a higher ceiling.

Thank you Phandrel!

@sebastianhanichen8516 Ай бұрын

Interesting build, but i'm really enjoying the stationary dodging on mirage.

@phandrel Ай бұрын

Mirage is also a different flavor and will allow for a much more relaxed playstyle. Overall, mesmer is doing well (and has been for a while) in the build department.

@arturstepien2714 23 күн бұрын

I was trying this build on a golem and reached max 7k dps (the only difference was relic of aristocracy but dont think it will bump up the dmg twice...) on staff while doing all combos etc... am I doing something wrong or is average golem without boons/debuffs harder than open world content?

@phandrel 23 күн бұрын

It sounds like either a gear or rotation problem. Gear needs to be of course on par with the one in the video, as that can already cause different results. If that's covered, then make sure you do the general combo right: Staff 2 + Mirror Images to start Continuum Shift, during which you want to use all of your F abilities, and prioritize using staff 3, heal (which resets staff 3), then staff 3 again. When continuum shift ends, you'll be able to repeat that whole sequence again, which should put you above 7k. It will take some practice, though, as it's a lot to think about in a very short time span.

@arturstepien2714 20 күн бұрын

@@phandrel thanks for the tip! I was wondering how can I use all of those F skills in continuum shift but I guess I need to use only F2 when its 3 clones and spam the rest without any clones no? Btw I figured out that I've used inspiration instead of illusion... :D so it raised up to 11k dps after changing but still far from your outcome so need to try harded :)

@phandrel 19 күн бұрын

@@arturstepien2714 Nice! The utilities can indeed make a massive difference. As for the F abilities, you can indeed mash all of them during Continuum Shift. You'll get them back a couple of seconds after. Out of CS, try to use F2 with 3 clones up and F1 with either 2 (in staff) or 3 (in rifle).

im benching around 16k with weapon swap and fooding, was this nerfed?

@phandrel 19 күн бұрын

There's a couple of changes to some cooldowns, but nothing major changed with the June 25 Balance Update. I haven't been benching it further, so I haven't reached J_Halver's numbers, instead I've been using it in the open world. I also hit the 16k mark consistently, with a couple of outliers on the higher side.

@nexeus7302 Ай бұрын

You definitely haven't tried Mechanist with the new Relic, literally unkillable, and the best part you Mech actually gets heals from the relic + the signet too which means you get ungodly amount of heals while dashing out damage along with your mech. As long as you don't leave your mech in shit puddles, you're god amongst mere any boss or champions. Btw a good indicator if your build is good for "solo", is the four champions Djins, if you can solo those, then yes, your build is golden.

@phandrel Ай бұрын

Sounds like I have some experimenting to do! I've been usually gliding to resummon my mech (at full health) when he gets low. But if we can just tank it, that'd be gold.

@albertovb88 Ай бұрын

Hey! Which build are you referring to? I wanted to update my mechanist for some open world content, and I would really love to see that build, is there any link? Ty in advance!

@nexeus7302 Ай бұрын

@@albertovb88 It seems won't let me to post any links. I did post a link with the build, but it got deleted. Use Zakiros with Explosive 2 - 3 - 3. Alchemy 3 - 1 - 3. Mechanist 2 - 2 - 1. The gear is also important. Celestial, BUT use pants with Marauder. Earings Marauder. Rifle Marauder too. Back piece I prefer Maradeur. Rest celestial. For runes; Rune of the Pack and weapons Sigils: Force and the one that gives 10+ Power on Kill.

@fullmetalathlete Ай бұрын

Interesting. I hadnt heard many people using the rifle chrono offensively. Ive been enjoying the hell out of heal rifle chrono in pvp but usually go for my condi Mirage for soloing harder bosses. I'll have to give it a try. Just gotta buy a real rifle for OW.

@phandrel Ай бұрын

I'm a huge fan of incorporating the new weapons as well, and the rifle works surprisingly well. I originally wrote it off as a group content weapon, but I was wrong.

@MrPhyxsyus 10 күн бұрын

I find Dagger celestial mirage with midnigth king relic and trapper runes is easier and kills everytging faster

@Inugamiz Ай бұрын

Is hard to learn? I have the game since release and havent really played it.

@phandrel Ай бұрын

This is definitely one of the more challenging ones, for sure. But you can simplify it heavily by remembering these combos: Staff 3 > Heal > Steaff 3, Rifle 2-3-4, F2 > F1 (use F3-F4 whenever you see fit).

Mirage is still a top contender, imo. But this one is definitely giving it a run for its money.

@1996technique Ай бұрын

@phandrel with the chrono burst dps against trash mobs would you still rate mirage higher? I can't stand mirage against normal mobs I only use it on a hp sponge

@fullmetalathlete Ай бұрын

Sadge...I prefer Mirage so much more than Chrono but you can't deny the numbers 😢

@campioneri Ай бұрын

@@1996technique Mirage is still better for solo content. It does like 22k dps in extended fights and with dagger/pistol its burst against trash mobs is tolerable. But this chrono build can tank more hits and survive with sloppier play, and also has more utility in a group setting. But if you want a build for normal mobs gear up a berserker's power mirage and swap to it when necessary, kills things crazy fast.

@MrPhyxsyus 13 күн бұрын

There's a staff/staff mirage build that can solo any champion too. Look for it on Guildjen.
