GW2. WvW Build. Power Shatter Chronomancer Roaming Build. Mesmer World vs World.
Last Update: October 2023
The Power Shatter Chronomancer is a Roaming mesmer build with boon rip and CC to burst its targets with massive combos.
Defender Relic heals you when you block, which makes it important you use both casts from Shield 4 to successfully block an attack to sustain. Signet of the Ether will also reduce the cooldown of Shield 4, allowing even more blocks.
Mimic is an important skill to learn, because it allows double the cast of one utility skill: Either Blink, or Mirror Images. For disengaging fights, a double blink is invaluable for getting out of range to break combat. For huge burst combos, the extra clones from a double Mirror Images can create huge burst combos, or even allow you to start begin those combos with no clones built up. Decide before using any of these utilities what the situation is, and which you will want to Mimic.
The main damage comes from the F1 shatter, which can be used twice due to the Shatter Storm trait. Getting 3 clones with your Greatsword 2/4, then the next 3 clones from Sword 3 and Mirror Images allows massive 6 clone shatter combos. You can go even further than this and perform this combo inside your Continuum Rift, and then do it again.
Skill Combos:
Shield 4 > Sword 3×2 > Shield 5 > Continuum Split > Gravity Well > Swap > Greatsword 4 >2 > 3 > Mirror Images > F1 > F1 > Leave Continuum Split > Repeat from Greatsword 4
Greatsword 5 > Continuum Split > Gravity Well > Blink + Greatsword 2 > Mirror Images > F1 + Greatsword 3 > Greatsword 4 > Leave Continuum Split > Greatsword 4 > 2 > 3 > Mirror Images + F1
Because landing your Continuum Rift combos is an important playmaking moment, you want to make sure the enemy does not easily stun break or dodge and then get out of your long cooldown burst. Try to bait cooldowns by starting with a few clones Time Sink F3 Shatter to put slow on and to disrupt your target.

Wouldn’t marauders accessories and diviners armor work well? With pack runes to get the most out of group play?
Which relic to use in this build? and runes? Has anything changed?
