Since yesterdays update i went with Improved Alacrity. Then i slapped on a few assasin armor pieces and trinkets with precision infusions and eagle runes. That put me at 75% Crit (with sigil of accuracy) and that dont transfer to phantasms as far as I now. So how the kitten am i suppose to crit-cap without sigils?

I know they did wrong with banners and are trying to fix that. Good. I hope they do the same with Wells. Even If they screw them up even more at least that would be proof that they havent forgotten about their sorry state.

https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/118935-game-update-notes-august-2-2022/?tab=comments#comment-1721618 Well, thats meh. No changes to wells. IA and DT in same row... Guess just a bit more fps.

Feels bad man.

They should not compete against each other. It is truly horrible. I still hope they wont go through with that when the patch goes live. But i have a few ascended assassin's pieces just laying around. Ill guess i slap them on.

Chrono Shield is bad. Wells are bad. The two things that came with HOTS besides new traitline and CS. And both shield and wells are so useless nowdays. A shame really.

What horror is this?

I really hope ANET fix Chronomacer "Wells" in the august 2nd balance patch. Wells are so bad right now that no one in their right mind would use them. Also fix Time Warp and SOI. They suck now.

Wait what... no changes to wells? And no boosting at all to chrono identity mechanics? Bummer.

Wait what... no changes to wells? And no boosting the class identity at all?

Thanks for making my chrono even more kitten. Also, RIP Danger Time, Time Warp and Seize the moment. and... alactriy on Mirage? Well screw the chrono theme.

Pick what is most fun for you. I love my Chrono.

Both Guild Wars 2 and FFXIV have up coming expansions hinting som kind of End (and a new start). End of dragons and Endwalker. Both companies have clarified that this not the End for the actual game but for a story or part of it. I think it is a bit funny that both have chosen a name for their expansion that indicate and "End". Also funny that they in interviews have to explain that they are not shutting down the game ?

Thanks guys for your response. I understand that there are many ways to go and there is more than one "right" approach. My goal with this setup is to be able to maintain 100% crit chance and quickness in most cases solo and in party. I also want some slack with timings, thats why i prefer the pack runes over scholar even tho i know scholar will output more dps. I actually swapped out my scholar runes for pack and I enjoy playing more since then. So i figured if i have a Base crit chance of 70,48% and permanent fury i will only need banner/spotter or slow to cap. That practiclly means I always have 100%. However i overshoot (105,48%) in open world, but that does not really matter? I do not raid. I do DRM, strikes, dungeons and sometimes fractal. But maybe i should have just 65%, that way i get 100% with fury and slow, but not 100% with fury, banner and spotter only. But i guess i slow most of the time.

I think the pack runes are alright. Makes room for a mistake or two in the rotation. The damage diffrence to scholar seems very small. Also the might is nice. I tend to provide alot of fury to my self since pack runes always gives me 8 second of fury at engage. Master fencer and sigil of inspiration also gives fury. So i tend to get 100% most of the time myself. And in groups always. About 35-40% boon Duration with food. Love this diffrence in approach. Thanks for your response.
