Guild Wars 2

Inspired by Fay/Pyro’s chrono build/rotation, I’m wondering if Mimic would provide similar alacrity upkeep. I’m planning on bringing this build to PvE.

Note: Empty slot can be any of the other wells, but I tested using Well of Action on an indestructible golem in HotM.

Rotation:

-3 phantasms or 2 with 1 clone
-Well of Recall
-Continuum Split during Recall’s casting
-Time Warp
-Mimic
-Well of Action
-Repeat Well of Action
-1 shatter and Tides of Time somewhere in between well mimicing

I used Well of Action and tested on an indestructible golem in HoTM. After several attempts, I manage all but one well (the one that isn’t mimic’d) within Continuum Split. Maybe I’m slow. I don’t know if this is better or worse or equal to Fay’s build with regards to how much alacrity upkeep is available. I just wanted to share, see if anyone else gets similar results and/or hear everyone thinks of Mimic with wells.

Bumping to keep this thread visible. I’m no PvEr, but hopefully someone else will have some insight for you. Thanks for the theory!

I appreciate the bump! The full build I’m thinking of using would be this:

The soldier’s and assassin’s may change, but this is sort of a nice overall power setup with a little survivability for HoT (since we’ve only touch the tip of the expansion in beta).

I will have to test this build out once HoT’s out to see how it fares.

Edit: Wrong link as it’s suppose to have Well of Calamity. >.<
