Chronowarden Level 70
Chronowarden Preservation Evoker leveling talents

Spec Tree

  • Rewind
    • This is your biggest healing cooldown when you suddenly take a lot of damage, it heals back 33% of the damage you took in the last 5 seconds.
  • Time Dilation
    • Your external that you can cast on yourself to stagger 50% of the damage you will take to help reduce the high burst damage taken.
  • Time of Need
    • A passive life-saver talent that will instantly heal you when you drop below 30% health and will continue to heal you for the next 8 seconds.
  • Nozdormu's Teachings
    • When casting Temporal Anomaly you will reduce the cooldown of all your empowered spells, this means that you can reduce the cooldown of Fire Breath to use it again quicker on the next pack that you will pull.
  • Stasis
    • Stores your next 3 healing abilities that you can then unleash in the sequence you stored them, you can put in your big empowered healing spells here for good healing, or a nice trick you can do is put in up to 3 Temporal Anomaly, because when you later use Stasis again you will gain the benefit of Nozdormu's Teachings, reducing the cooldown of all your empowered spells, so you could use Fire Breath very quickly after your first cast, potentially on the same mobs that you have pulled.
  • Emerald Communion
    • This is a very nice panic healing cooldown that you can use even when stunned, use this when you are about to die and need quick healing.
  • Lifespark
    • Each heal from Reversion has a chance to give you a 50% buff to your next Chrono Flame and also makes it instant cast.

Class Tree

  • Landslide
    • Roots the targets in its path, can be nice to use when kiting mobs or use it defensively to get a quick heal in.
  • Obsidian Scales
    • A personal that reduces your damage taken by 30% for 12 seconds.
  • Renewing Blaze
    • Your 2nd personal that will heal you back for 100% of the damage you took as a HoT over 8 seconds, is very nice to use when pulling multiple mobs to keep using damage abilities instead of healing.
  • Sleep Walk
    • A single target CC ability that puts the mob to sleep and makes it walk towards you, can be used to collect some treasure or quest item so you don't need to pull a mob and kill it.
  • Time Spiral
    • Use to give you another charge of Hover for the next 10 seconds.
  • Tip the Scales
    • Makes your next empowered ability instant and at max rank, use this on Fire Breath for big AoE damage instantly without needing to channel the empowered spell.
  • Quell
    • Your interrupt ability you can use on for example ranged mobs to stop their cast on you.

Hero Talents

  • Chronowarden is better than Flameshaper due to it transforming your Living Flame into Chrono Flame for more damage.
  • You will also get Warp that decreases the cooldown of your Hover by 5 seconds which increase your mobility to keep pulling more mobs and move around the questing areas.
  • Temporal Burst makes your Tip the Scales give you a big Haste, Movement Speed and Cooldown Recovery Rate buff for nice boost of burst damage.
  • When you get down to Afterimage it will boost your AoE damage by a lot, it will make your Fire Breath shoot out up to 3 Chrono Flame onto enemies for free.
