Homemade Chronos Guide!

Nice Guide!
Going to play with him now XD

Savage mace stacks with bash lol And has no bashing properties But i wouldn't consider it a good item for this hero, cuz he is not in a need of damage, just Agility (Attack Speed).

An agi/carry hero not in the need of damage. everything seems upside-down now
OH WAIT

nah srsly we all can argue about items, its personal preference most of the time (unless sth is plain stupid). but if there wasnt this timelock illu bug, I wouldnt consider geometers bane as a good item for void.

and 15% as is at least something.
and btw this is not dota, its not just simple AS boosting to get a almost permbash on all bash heros, apart from that 1,5 sec cooldown HON doesnt even use pseudo-random-proc-calculation like dota does.
but dont take this as any kind of offense, i am tolerant and accept almost everybody's opinion.

Thanks guys.
Yeah,the reason why i put in Geo's Bane is because Time Freeze procs on illusions too,so there's a chance for the target to be stunned like..forever :p
Also,since the new fix,I DID TRY,Savage Mace gets on cooldown when u proc Time Freeze,so does the Brutalizer.
If u proc one,you won't proc other,even if the description doesn't say it has bashing properties.

Good guide but I wouldn't recommend buying 4 of those charms in the beginning, it's a waste of money and they aren't going to help that much, maybe one or two at the most. Besides that, great guide, I love playing Chronos

Those Minor Totems give you more dmg earlygame, which results in more lasthits/denies, which again results in better farm They might be very important! Please do not go boots first!

But shouldn't this guide be updated? ^^

[Flying Panda]

Gonna update it tomorrow.But seemed lame as It's not appreciated anyway.just a mechanic by some people who actually care enough to do so.

>Savage mace is easily the most powerful item on chronos.
Why? You won't miss the attack, potential to grant +180 damage per attack, ministun and attackspeed.
This isn't good for him you say? Hmm

Wow, look at the post date >.< I sucked hard than

The totems simply seem like a waste to me. I can do fine early on without them and I think it's better to save space and money early on.

My normal Item build is:

Start of game: Soulscream ring, 1x mana and 1x health potion (money permitting) ---- I believe the 6 agility boost is well worth the money early on.

Beginning: Steamboots (+10 agility ftw), Elder parasite (One of the most useful items, buff is PERFECT for chronos especially in conjunction with the chronosphere)


Midish: Riftshards (good and cheap), Iron Shield

Endish: Upgraded Riftshards, whatever better items I can afford ~

~~~Note: not finished.

This is just my personal preference for Chronos (just started using him), definitely open up to suggestions.


As for my Skill Build I start with time leap first (seems to be a life saver in some instances, as well as scaring off heroes in the start of the game), after that I focus on the Time Stop skill while continuing to build time leap. As soon as I can get chronosphere I get it (main tool for combating other heroes). I usually never end up putting points into rewind until the end, this is simply because I feel it's a waste of a skill point on earlier levels when stat boosts seem so much more useful (those low percentages on rewind don't appeal to me).
