Thanks man! It definitely feels better than it once did, and it isn't quite as /broke/ as it once was so you can get in there with low stress. Even with non optimal gear this build still plays well!

Thanks man, yeah I try to keep it simple

They definitely are pretty strong right now, mesmer is just a class I haven't played a lot to it's full potential since I was in firebrand jail.

So Qdps herald is arguably my favorite build, power vindi is up there too. But power alac ren is dead (maybe it got revived?) Though I suppose it could work. My main gripe with revenant is the lack of ranged dps.

@@SilhouetteGaming1 nah power ren is still dead - it still retains its flexibility but it dps is too low to be viable unfortunately… I fully agree that ranged dps is a weak point - only condi ren or condi herald can claim to be decent with its shortbow but nothing compares to ,esmer in that regard anyway ^^ There are ranged options (mostly condi) everywhere but they need to be in melee range from time to time…

@Cross_111 herald and scrapper are my two most played solo play classes with their qdps builds in open world. Power is dh or vindi, condi is almost exclusively virtuoso these days but it has been scourge and harb before. The amount of spreads in new strikes just debos any melee classes

It's not too bad but there is a slight delay on the rampup once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy! Definitely pick it back up

You can switch mantra with phantasmal disenchanter. I use this build to make myself get used to the rotation and it works exceptionally well in maintaining alac since improved alacrity trait made us suffer from alac downtime a few sec

Yeah the butterfly's are the clone despawn animation.

I love warrior but I am trying to be somewhat efficient lol

Also saying that the Playstyle is "blowing everything off cd" is not how you should Play boon Chrono. There really is a Rotation that you could and should follow for sustained dps and also your boon uptime

@AnurSyqiecco you're correct but I am also not wrong in saying you use your phantasm skills to generate clones. And I know there is a actual rotation, my guides aren't necessarily for people who want to min-max their rotation, just the basic overview of the class and how the class plays. Chrono is high apm compared to other a/q dps classes, which is why I said it's a blow your skills off cooldown class, ultimately if you follow this guide for clone generation focusing on the 2nd skill of each weapon set and phantasm of each weapon set and blow your skills off cooldown with F1 and F2 being used with 3 clones you will do moderate DPS while also maintaining your boons comfortably.

@@SilhouetteGaming1 especially on the dps only build it's a big difference If you create a phantasm or a clone because phantasm Take ages to become a clone with grandmaster trait (chronophantasma) :D Alright that is a fair argument. And be Sure that your Videos are really appreciated. I Just wanted that to Point Out that the right Rotation is Not pressing everything Off cd and Sometimes having at least a rough Rotation is better to Just Press every Button off cd

@AnurSyqiecco no worries man I'm not easy to offend and am always open to being completely wrong (happens all the time). I think the main difference is when you're running chronophantasma you aren't really in a crunch for clones because you aren't providing boons, so you're more focused on the phantasm spam /ether signet refresh /set up for CS. It's got it's own special considerations.

Wow. You are so awesome.😒

This build feels great once you know what you're doing. It's been a while since I played it but I'm trying to break the dust off so I can look somewhat like I know what I'm doing when I join groups with 600AP lol

@@SilhouetteGaming1 600 AP…lol. Man, maybe there ARE worse things than not having auto loot. 😂

@stevemail47 I still feel like auto loot is a pretty critical item, it's stupid that it's a mastery tbh but whatever.

Hey man! thanks for checking out the vid! Maybe one day I'll do other games, and I love democracy as much as the next guy, but as for the time I have available to actually play it's not really feasible with other obligations (I'm sure you understand). Not going to say it's never going to happen, but a game I've been playing for this long is easy for me to understand and stay up to date on to make these kinds of guides in a short time frame. Have fun dropping stratagems on my brother, FOR DEMOCRACY.
