Guild Wars 2

Quick question for all those informed. How well does superior rune of the Chronomancer stack up in PvE compared to similar power/precision runes? Would it do well in fractals for instance on ascended gear with assassin stats?

The last ability on the rune is terrible in my opinion when you could be using max dps with strength. But if you want to make everyone slightly faster for two seconds by giving up a lot of damage be my guest. Still surprised the rune is hovering around 4g 50s. You would have thought people would have unlocked it by now.

The quickness does not apply to everyone, just you.

If you spec specifically for quickness generation, you would find a use, but your dps will suffer overall.

Huh. That makes it even worse.

Its primary use is as a launchpad for a well rotation. This way, you don’t have to drop Well of Action or Time Warp first to increase the full well rotation.
It can also be useful to mantra/well builds, if anyone tries such a thing.

It also sets up a really easy/effective res tool in pvp, with Well of Precognition. Drop the well, and for 3s you’re invulnerable while you res 50% faster.
