Hello, i’m currently trying to gear my chrono for raid both as a chrono tank and a chrono dps.

For now, i really don’t want to invest into getting a sigil of concentration, but without it, i can’t find a way to max my boon duration while not being forced into a tank role with full commanders trinket.

Here’s the builds i currently plan to go for :

Both build will use the Magnanimous Sharpening Stone from draconis mons. With it i should be very close to 100% boon duration with the tank build and at around 82% boon duration for the non-tank build.

Is 82% enough to reliably keep up perma quickness on my subgroup if played properly ?
If not, how much do i need ?

Hey there, to answer your final question, if you run 82% boon duration, 100% quickness uptime is indeed possible, however you need to focus a lot more on your rotations and there is less room for kittening up.

I would recommend you go with this build

I went in and made some of your trinkets exotic, which allows for more boon duration doubloons. Additionally, you will need to be running bountiful sharpening stones to get close enough to 100%. Magnanimous utility consumables are only better if you have 1500 Toughness, healing power or vitality, of which you have none
