Here’s my Wizard/Chronomancer Build

I am not sure the usefulness of “Quick Cast” yet, if it’s redundant, I will go Wiz > Wiz > Psy > Psy > Chrono > Chrono.

My picked skills:

  1. Energy Bolt (10/15)
    As this skill can be charged on top of a small splash, this will IMO makes a spam-able main DPS skill.

  2. Lethargy (5/15)
    If I had a choice, I wouldn’t take this skill. This skill, I will only be using it on bosses mostly.

  3. Reflect Shield (15/15)
    As the name of the skill implies. Mages by nature is squishier than their counterparts, thus I think this skill will be useful for heated situations.

  4. Sure Spell (10/10) This skill level is still unconfirmed, but if duration is at least 15 seconds anywhere in between, I will use the rest of the points on Energy Bolt.
    Your next skill after activating this buff cannot be cancelled by being hit. The reason why I feel 15 seconds is reasonable is because I love “contingencies” :stuck_out_tongue:

  5. Quick Cast (5/5)
    So far all mage skills doesn’t seem to take a long time to cast. This skill usefulness will be the deciding factor if I’m going to take this class path. If proven useless, I will take the path of being a Psy.

  6. Electrocute (5/5) -Filler Skill-
    No description as to why I take this skill.

  7. Stone Curse (5/5) -Filler Skill-
    No description too.

  8. Prominence (5/5) -Filler Skill-
    I did not take Hail because mobs will not stay there for you to hit them. However, hail will be a good skill if you’re in a party that mobs and kills. You can cast hail at a pre-determined spot, towards the direction of the lurer.

  9. Quicken (10/10)
    You became a chronomancer because of this skill. No explanations needed, right?!

  10. Samsara (1/10)
    I have no idea the usefulness of this skill, so I kept it at level 1.

  11. Stop (9/10)
    The only sad thing about this skill is that, stopped monsters cannot be damaged. Good team-saving/self-saving skill.

  12. Slow (4/10)
    I do not know what possessed me to take this skill to level 4, but I intended to keep it at level 1 or not get it at all. Maybe I got this because Back Masking & Samsara CD is incredibly long. Hahaha!

  13. Haste (5/5)
    Likewise, you became a Chronomancer for this skill too, didn’t you?! No explanations needed then? :wink:

  14. Back Masking (1/5)
    Long CD. But if this skill can be used to save the party from being wiped or a class with major role from death within that split second, I will get this at 5 and unlearn Slow.

Please advise on my chosen skills above! I’m very new at this and I am definitely very open to opinions.

Edit:
I forgot I had to explain why I think it’s a good(not so good ughhh) build, what I can do with it and etc.

I think this build is very well-balanced between offensive, defensive and support.

In times of boss slaying, your quicken on a major DPS class (such as Ranger) and lethargy skill on boss becomes essential.

For normal grinding, (especially in a small enclosed area), Prominence is so sexy! Just think about it, jumping flames for 15 seconds!!! XD Mostly you’ll be kiting with charged energy bolt. If things turn nasty, you can drop a reflect shield or use the famous combo: stop, haste and fleeeeeeee!

That’s all I can think of for now, I hope you guys liked this build. But yeah, do share what you think/areas of improvements!

awesome to see another chronomancer build, but you choose elementalist and not psycokino, because they dont have stone curse.

I thought stone curse is an elementalist skill? or am I reading it wrongly? :grimacing:

I am confused I thought telling because you wrote Wiz > Psy > Psy

Sorry if I confused you, in the guide above I wrote the following: I am not sure the usefulness of “Quick Cast” yet, if it’s redundant, I will go Wiz > Wiz > Psy > Psy > Chrono > Chrono.

The build I made for myself is Wiz > Wiz > Wiz > Ele > Chrono > Chrono
In the 3rd Wiz, there is a skill called “Quick Cast” If that skill is useless, I will go Wiz > Wiz > Psy > Psy > Chr > Chr instead.

Hope that clarifies! :grin:

Chronomancer - Linker/Thaumafurge build: Battle Chronomancer
wizard - wizard - linker - thaumafurge - chronomancer - chronomancer
Build link: http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/build/vf045j9cl5/

Explanation:
This build should represent some battle wizard action, as it should be some kind of tribute to the berserk wizard in ro. Instead of using magic, you are using different skills to improve your situation and use some sick thaumafurge skills to increase your atk and others, sadly the best thaumafurge skills are on tier 2 but then you cant get to chronomancer anymore, so I decided to let it on tier one, linker is also important for being able to attack mobs and inside of a party, chronomancer to higher your atk speed and others, also beeing able to have a better control over the situation.

in the early game as wizard, you are already skilling smiliar atk to int, as you are rather using your melee attacks than energybolt to damage your opponent, the different skills should help you and the party to make the opponents easier, as linker you should be able to help the party much and also level faster through mob killing, later on with thaumafurge you are beginning to get a beast through the buffs and debuffs of the enemies, with the chronomancer you are able to make your stronger atks faster also beeing faster to move is quite convient

  • Popularity : - has yet to be seen
  • PvP Effectiveness : I am not sure, rather a fun build than good for competitive, depends how the skills are
  • PvE Effectiveness : some hybrid, but rather damage dealer with indirect support of the team by buffing and debuffing them
  • Flexibility : you will for sure be able to solo and party, but its always better in party, as linker people will like your buffs and links.

in the end its questionable, if you rather want 2 tier linker + 2 tier thaumafurge instead of 2 tier chronomancer, but i really love high atk speed, specially as wizard.

@Yourtime Is this an edited version of your previous build?

If so, I edited the OP! :sunny:

no thats another one :smiley: the first one is more like control pressure, you can stop the monster and keep the damage flowing, while the other build is a battle chronomancer, where you fight with your fists instead of magic.

should I have edit my previous post to add the build there?

@Yourtime nope! I just clicked the ToSbase link and thought they were both the same! Fixed the OP~

ups sorry -.-, fixed it :sunny:

@FatePGN Thanks so much for taking the time to consolidate this :smile:

@Tsugumi no problem, I love seeing what the community can come up with (and what I can use :smiling_imp:)

Looking forward to seeing what else everyone can come up with :smile:

Have you any idea how many characters can one account hold? I plan to make an alchemist too.

@Tsugumi

5 Characters :smile:

I feel silly for not reading the faq. Almost everything is answered there. Sorry for the troubles!

No problem! Feel free to ask as many questions as you’d like, these forums are definitely the place for that anyways :sunny:

Here’s a fun one


Archer - QS - Sapper - Sapper - Sapper - SR

The kiting machine!

Run around and drop traps.

Aggro mobs and run back (into your minefield) while firing at em.

??

Profit.

Scatter caltrops to slow them for easier kiting. Use Punji Stakes and Fulldraw to stack enemies for a Collar Bomb.

You could take Detonate Traps instead of one of the other traps, but that takes all the fun out of ringing monsters to death. Since it blows up nearby traps, you’d have to be somewhat close to the enemy for this to be effective (and you’d have to be in the middle of a gathered mob to hit enough of them). Probably better for anyone going Scout/Rogue.

Well instead of min-maxing for the most DPS I went with the fun-factor as well as Battle Field Control.

Swordsman Builds:

Army Breaker Cataphract


-This build is probably going to be my main Swordsman, it maybe the fastest Character on field being mounted and relies on controlling the battlefield by being the on the frontline. With the skill Rush this character can break Centurion formations, the Steed Charge can break shields and this build helps with opening ways trough waves of enemies.
It has a touch of hoplite to maximize the spear effectiveness.

Spear Squire


-This build is for the Squire that may be requested during big dungeons, the Squire is kind of an wild card so I put a Hoplite build because I like Spears, but everything before can be changed to your tastes.

Captain America


-This one otimizes the shield with most effectiveness being a complete tank in a Petalsta-Rodelero combo. It paralyzes, crowd-controls when needed and has Defense up the whazoo!

The Captain


-This is a Corsair one in hopes that there are more Sub-Weapon focused classes in the future. It has Barbarian for the Frenzy and jumps and two Swordies for tha passives. The Corsair hook is what makes this class cool to me.

Wizard Builds:

Pyro-Sorcerer


-Not a lot of Pyros in the forum so this is to warm it up a bit. It has the classic fire DPS and the cool Fire Pillar along with a Fire ball that everyone can knock around also the Enchant fire to help the party. Then a pitch of Elementalist for more Deeps and to close it with a golden key The Sorcerer for thos long lonely griding nights.

Best Friend Wiz


-This one is for your Swordsman Bro/Babe. It’s a Linker-Thaumaturge combination using the Links to allow the Swordie to hit all the mobs with a Hand the size no amount of “private time” will give you. The Thauma enlarges both hands for maximum effectivenes. The perfect Duo for a ToS valentine’s Grind.

Necrophiliac Psycopath


-A Psychokino is a lot of fun so put in a Necromancer you have a doozy gathering corpses for you monsters, and the CC helps a lot at parties.

CryNomancer


CC,CC and CC some more! Freeze and stop then freeze again, ain’t nobody touching this mage’s cool bod unless invited! Good for AoE battles and to piss your opponent’s off, you can have the second Cryo circle 2 for Psycho so you can be extra unkillable with teleport!

Archer Builds:

Nuke Falconer


-I always loved falcons and this is probably gonna be my archer class of choice, It has 3 circles of Ranger for the AoE effectiveness, Fires through lines, Explodes enemies and combos well with a Psychokino and also a touch of Fletcher for the cool arrow effects.

The Trapper


-The capabilities of the Schwarze Reiter has me questioning this build so it can be traded with Falconer it seems the archer builds are difficult since they differ in weapons and pets!
This build uses almost everything that can be placed on the ground, It has the Quarrel Shooter for the Shields and 3 circes of sapper so you can sit down and let’ em come! It is a cost heavy build though so have a Dievdwhatsit to help you with wood.

Sneaky Bastard


-This one was especially fun to make, it’s full of options for Fun stuff, it’s the first time I could put a Hunter and make it be effective, It’s a Hunter-Scout-Rogue build, it utilizes your Pet as a distraction and main DPS while you sneak around the battlefield picking targets off!

Death Adder


-Poison is pretty cool to play around and the Wugushi delivers, full of AoE and on hit DPS it’s pretty straight foward poisoning from the backline and watching your enemies rot!

Cleric Builds:

Wood Paladin


-I like paladins, but even more it’s Barrier and conversion skill, it has a touch of Dievdwhatchamawhozzit for the warps and SP buffs! A tank in it’s core and immortal with the power of the light!

Astral Monk


-Cleric’s divine might really breaks the heart of the Priest and Krivis class, this build has Krivis for the Daino skill that let’s you have more buffs ín ther party, but the important combo is the Sadbu-Monk. The spirit is much faster than the body so it uses the skill as a Gap-closer for the monk to stay in range of his enemies, it also has good tanking capabilities.

Zombie Salesman


-Hey chap! Ever wanted your own army of the dead!? Well you are in luck, just come on in and buy some scrolls will ya? Thhe Build focuses on selling scrolls such as Divine Might, heals and Zombies so everyone can have some Undead FUN!

Girlfriend


-For your grilfriend that doesn’t like killing the cute little monsters we have this build! So much heals and buffs that you might as well be an addict now! And of course the Oracle so you can see ALL THE LEWTS!

So that’s it, 16 builds with fun, effectiveness, Dynamic Duo possibilites, DPS, support, AOE, Tanking and selling taken into account! Wow 2 hours of building.
