使用说明 Usage

Power chronomancer has a very complex rotation. Due to ，your cooldowns are even shorter than normal, so the rotation is longer by squeezing more skills into it. You should memorise the opening and practice it, because then you can just follow your cooldowns to sort of know what to do.

Beginner Rotation

Alternatively, you can opt to drop 巨剑 (or replace it with a 聚能器) to greatly simplify the rotation at a ~9% DPS loss. In this case, take in Domination。 The rotation below assumes the use of 聚能器 in the second set, but you can choose to camp Dagger/Sword if you prefer, though this is an additional ~2% DPS loss.

Opening Continuum Split
As this is a beginner rotation, Continuum Split is kept very simple:

1. to start with a clone to shatter
3. (replace with if not using 聚能器)
8. Weapon Swap

Rest of the Rotation
For the rest of the rotation you use 匕首 skills, ，and your three utility skills off cooldown (be sure not to consume the last charge of if using)。 Additionally:

• On offhand 利剑 use ⇒ ⇒ ，then continue using other skills off cooldown until you can use once more. Then immediately Weapon swap afterwards (if using 聚能器)。
• On offhand 聚能器，use whenever it comes off cooldown, then Weapon swap back to offhand 利剑 as soon as you can.

Loop

After the opener, you follow this loop:

• When you swap to sword, the first and last skill before you swap again is ，and you will use in between. Fill the gaps with and never interrupt your auto attack chain because most of the damage comes from the final strike 。
• When you swap to greatword, you use 3 times thanks to 和 once, while using your greatsword damage skills in between.

11. Weapon swap

• Use off cooldown.
• should be saved for CC. If there's no need for CC during the fight, Gravity Well can be used in the greatsword set instead of auto attacks. It has the lowest priority out of all your skills due to its very low damage.
• If you have to interrupt the loop because the boss moved, or phased, or you have to do some mechanic, you don't simply resume your rotation where you left it.
  • If you're on sword, you want to return to greatsword whenever weapon swap is ready, casting your available skills while waiting. But if weapon swap is ready, cast Phantasmal Swordsman and swap inmediatly.
  • If you're on greatsword, try to follow the loop from the start skippig what's on cooldown and weapon swap when ready and your skills are on cooldown. If Signet of the Ether is on cooldown, don't wait for it.

Continuum Split

When Continuum Split comes off cooldown after the opener, you will want to be on greatsword with your cooldowns available, and shatter with 3 clones. You will use your to cast twice inside the split, and twice outside of it, and Well of Calamity Twice.

Notes

• Essentially, you use all your skills except 和 。
• Use whenever you have 3 clones up.
• Make sure not to interrupt your autoattack chain as the damage from it is heavily loaded into the final strike, 。
• Save clones to shatter with if you will need to CC in the immediate future.
• After the opener, use anytime it gets a charge.
  • Use the final charge just before a boss is about to phase, and recharge it before the start of the next.
• Try to flank (attack from behind or the side) whenever possible to make use of your 。
• Don't worry too much if you were unable to fit inside the Continuum Split opener, it deals less damage than one full sword auto attack chain, and 3 greatsword auto attacks.
• provides enough Alacrity to counter the negative side of 。 This means that your Alacrity-provider doesn't have to increase their boon duration to give you more Alacrity. Your Alacrity might drop during transitions and other situations where you can't create and shatter clones, but that shouldn't be a problem.
• As you master this class, you can start considering some more advanced tips and tricks:
  • ， 和 will interrupt your current skill cast. The opener takes advantage of this to cancel the aftercast animations of ，but make sure to not interrupt yourself with these skills. You can use them, or weapon stow, to cancel the aftercast animation of ，which can be cancelled almost instantly, or ，which can be stowed after the final strik.
  • When on gretsword, if you already have 3 clones as is almost off cooldown, and you have phantasms attacking, you can shatter the 3 clones with ，then shatter those phantasms (after they become clones) with ，because you will have 3 clones up again through 和 by the time Split Second is off cooldown again. This is only a 2% dps gain, so ignore it if you're not confident that you can pull it off because delaying by even 1 second, or not having 3 clones ready for it, would be terrible.
  • has artificially high priority in the rotation so that it is off cooldown for the second Continuum Split. If you had to interrupt your rotation at any point, you will no longer need to give such high priority to it. Instead, when Continuum Split is coming off cooldown, ensure that Well of Calamity will be available to use inside of it. With 13,3 seconds cooldown, this means you should leave WoC off cooldown when CS will be ready in 8-9 seconds or less.
