kraai.7265 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Do you guys remember anet totally killed chrono a while ago?Now that we have a new team leader on balance, and communication is flowing again, why aren't we getting any response to the countless feedback asking for anet to take back this awful changes?Are you watching the decay of players using chrono on every game mode?If you won't take it back to how it was pre "rework" at least do you have plans on making it somehow better?

ITS UTTER GARBAGE.why its like that? becouse someone can have bright idea of making condi chrono with phantasma, and have single use taunt for 3s instead, reset it with f4 for another 3s.every meserm =1s chrono? 6s. disenchanter?5 boon rip 1s casttime. its baaad. but cant be buffed, becouse chrono with phantasma will abuse it.

Levetty.1279 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 New team leader on balance just removed fall damage traits because it made the trait description too long. Things are going to get even worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gryxis.6950 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 chronophantasma helped create one of the most fun to play phantasm build tho http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PiABsyx7lVwuYbsOGKm+WaNdA-zVZYBRPIGMcYnSfKgQFBhLBSXIYxB-w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For ages this made it so that when Chrono was "balanced" core had to suffer; It made it so that damage had to be shifted from phants in the first place which is why clone spam has become basically essential.

This community is terrible.not quite, simply pointing out that chrono's traits and anets original intentions (back when lw4 was rolling out) was to preserve chronophants dominance which lead to balance changes that overall where bad. Bad because they did things like nerf phants, and weapon damage to avoid just balancing chrono. In my opinion this started a long trend that has lead Mesmer to the point that its at now.I think Mesmer balance should have been done in ways that didn't kill build options for core. However, the way chrono's could crank out phants caused anet to nerf phants and move us all to use clones, caused them to nerf the base damage on weapons, etc. That is the point of what I said, the fact that chrono isnt played now isn't relevant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl.8924 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 hmm i think im going to change my stance i don't think except maybe dodgy pu that mesmers are really a problem in power. The one mesmer build i saw with GS is open and visible and exposed, condi is whats nasty condi anything.Even then that same condi mesmer i faced was exposed to the world and a good dps class would probably destroy them.

Can you repeat what you mean more clearly ?I was thinking about the fight i had a tough fight condi mes condi weaver condi guard and i think i hate condis more than anything I have ever faced.I would rather fight power mes over condi anything, because condi classes just spaw mass filth and destroys too many people too fast in SPVP.Last time i also faced this mes it wasn't too horrible to fight.I think i understand why everyone wants condis to disappear, its just unnatural to put out that much condi that kills you so fast you cannot realistically react.I have had games in SPVP where on my druid there were too many condis to cleanse en masse and spammed. I can understand in WVW you got a lot of people but 1 person should not be allowed to spam that much in spvp that you cannot deal with it, and its definitely burn thats the worse offender here EG weavers guards.I was also playing as a heal druid hybrid, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gannondorf.7628 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I liked the way they reworked chrono shatters, more thematically adapted. Also the f5 continuum split was pure power creep so having just 4 shatter would make it more in tune with base/mirage. But why have they remove the personnal shatter on F1 is beyond me… . Make illusionnary persona back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the same old F1-f2-f3 with no change at all, minor negligible effect added to it. F1 based on having slow to increase the damage... without a way to consistently to apply slow, especially pvp/wvw.But why have they remove the personnal shatter on F1 is beyond me… . Make illusionnary persona back!Ye, big F for chrono without actually reworking shatters and adapting traits/clones for its change :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shippage.1983 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I can live with new Shatters which are incredibly mediocre since they're really a nerf in disguise. But, at least let us shatter without requiring clones. It feels incredibly clunky with this change and single-handedly destroys the enjoyment of Chrono for me. It feels this way in PvE and PvP.

Axl.8924 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I think it took some other moves plus that mantra to do mediocre dmg. I do have chronophantasma though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make illusionnary persona back!This is the thing - I also like their attempt to differentiate the shatters, also aesthatically with new visuals and sound effects.But this being an iterative process... well the rate of iteration is on par with the life cycle of stars.
