Hello, I’m actually building up a Chrono for raids and fractals
I actually have:
exotic backpack with a Platinum doublon
Commander leggins
The rest is everything berserker ascended.
I’m using sigil of concentration.

My problem is that I don’t want to farm Dragon stand for leadership runes.
My question is… Can I still provide permaquickness with water runes? Or Herald runes? Or I am forced to get full set of leadership?
Thanks for the replies

Can you – Yes.
Is it optimal – No.
Will it be excepted – Fractals – most likely. Quickness is only part of a Mesmer’s role in FotM. Learn your Portal placements, Reflects, Focus pulls, and blink skips. There are more then a couple runes that give boon duration, and you get 15% from mist potion. Someone did the math on the builds/rotations and min boon duration for each if you like #s.
In Raids you’ll find no mist potion, builds synergies are more demanding, and Non-Meta builds are frowned on. Truth is in Raids you will be running the build your Raid Leader wants. Maybe you Guild raid leader is ok with you not farming the Leadership runes, but LFR is going to be a harder sell as a zerk Chrono with out them.

Use 4x traveler runes and 2x platinum doubloons in your armor parts. That will grant you the most boon duration at a low cost. At least until you got your leadership runes.

Alternative you could also just run 2 exotic accessories with platinum doubloons aswell. In the end 90% boon duration is enough for perma Quickness. In Raids even less is required, but having 90% is still great because mechanics may mess up your rota a little bit – depending on the boss that is.

Greez!
