Guild Wars 2

Can someone please tell me what counters them?
I’m dodging Mirror Blade and denying clones, but I only delay the 100-0. Blocks, Invulns, Stuns and stealth is just too much for me. I have no clue how to go about this.

Run as quickly as you can the other way.

But you cant run, they are everywhere. Far point? It was the Chronomancer all along. Your own weapon? Chronomancer. Lords? Chronomancer. That tree? Also a Chronomancer. That troll in map chat? May or may not be Colin.

Unblockable attacks vs blocks, stun breaks vs stuns xD

Boy it would be nice to have unblockable attacks on every class and build. And I sure do love having three stunbreaks.

Sure is helpful here.

As a Ranger that doesn’t have druid in his build. I know your pain. Unblockable attacks would be REALLY nice.

• you can deny the blocks by not attacking during it (it is 2s block but if you attack, chronos get an additional 2s block). Remember, while blocking the chrono does not attack.
• the evade is either from blurred frenzy and thus simply walk away or from the well of precognition which is only 3s on a long CD.
• if the chrono can 100-0 you, he is playing glassy. As long as your burst him outside of his blocks/evades, he will fall quickly. Also, CC works great against chrono in general to negate most active defense.

Thank you Silverkey, I’ll see what I can do to apply that in combat.

Dragonhunter is the best counter because they have so much unblockable damage and CC and have solid ranged pressure (mesmers have always relied on staff/gs kiting against dps guard to not instantly drop but this won’t work anymore).

Revenant and condi reaper can also delete it for similar reasons but the matchup is better for them.

To add to what Silverkey said, condi usually wrecks Mesmer as most do not have condition clears on the build between running portal, blink and either well of precog or decoy.

I will literally run from any condi fight as a power shatter mesmer if they look like they have enough sense to dodge a mirror blade. It’s a fight I will not win.

not true anymore. The meta bunker build will cure pretty much anything you throw at it, but it won’t 100-0 anyone though. I play shatter power and takes insp. trait line I also pretty much cure everything.

Yeah the chrono bunker and the 1 in 100 Mesmer that is running a non standard shatter (inspiration line) are not as susceptible to conditions.

Boon hate is good against chrono bunker, in particular condition revenants and signet necros. I kinda wish ANet had given a little more boon hate out with spec patch as I think it could have balanced the classes a bit better.

I expect chrono bunker to be a lot more popular after metabattle update with the recent pro league though.
