Guild Wars 2

if theres 2 phantasm and 1 clone,ur sceptor AA clone will jus replace the clone, or the 1st phantasm that u summon? and also what skill do you all use on ur skillslots?

is this how u play,get 3 phantasm out and shattering them after they done attacking once? or jus shatter when 3 illu including AA clone, i found that its quite long waiting for phantasm to be cast again

will sceptor AA clone replace phantasm? will tat affect much?

so for traits its chaos/illu/chrono? and if i will be shattering whenever theres 3 illu, and using chronophantasma,i need to summon phantasm rather than clones?

Mikkel.8427:

I normally agree with Alpha when it comes to condi builds, but I have to insist you guys try something a little different when using Chrono.

The best hybrid (aka Sinister) damage setup I’ve tested so far for solo/open world-

Dueling 1 1 2 (thats right! lolmistrust)
Illusions 1 3 3
Chrono 2 3 3

Scepter + focus and pistol

The warden is actually really great at stacking bleeds, its AoE, blocks projectiles and does really solid physical damage. It becomes all about timing your shatters at the end of your phantasms’ attacks.

The scepter rarely screws you over because you’re shattering so often.

You don’t need DE in this build, so may as well grab mistrust. Both the pistol and the focus have great interrupt skills with relatively low cooldowns also (especially with alacrity).

I take the super speed illusions because it helps to reset my phantasms faster. I dont like the wells for solo play.

I haven’t done the math (mostly because i’m not sure where to even start) to see if DD would beat out PF with this setup. . . but I’m just rolling with PF for now.

I strongly suggest giving it a try. It is super fast-paced and does solid AoE damage (for a Mesmer build).

for this build ur using sinister with nightmare? wad abt weap runes?

for pve tho.might try pvp after i finish all the content of HOT

im currently using staff and AA stuff to death with 3 illu. i’ve jus unlocked the whole chrono tree and wonder how do i convert to it. altho i run sceptor and pistol as backup but i dun really swap to it. am using chaos,illu,dueling b4 unlocking chrono.

for gear im wearing rabid with krait runes.really interested in chrono but have no idea how to implement into my gameplay as u know, im only AA all the while..
