how r u guys dealing with mana issues? I respec my chrono to recoup and it is feeling pretty great almost undying and with mana recoup i can get around mana issues pretty safely, but the cost of mana is way too high in some skills 600 mana and my maximum mana is around 1,1k, idk how to increase it significativly

Get reduced manacost on tree and instil. not go too high with skill levels. They add damage, but they add about same amount of manacost, so your damage per manabar stay say if comet is level 24 or 27.

In maps you have jewels with 2% mana on kill, on bosses you have temporal rift.

Hi everyone!
I wanted to share with you a bit about where I'm at with my chrono.
To be honest, I don't consider myself to be a serious gamer. I started in January, mainly on PlayStation. This season, it's complicated my build a bit because it's not easy to place frost walls and frost bombs with the controller. I'm also still new to all the theory, but I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who gives advice here, it's really useful!

Here's my current pob: https://poe2db.tw/pob/V31Mi11t0Y
I recently managed to kill Xesh in T4 (not easy, but it was done!) and I find that I'm making rapid progress on the mapping now. I get my divines from shops where I spend a lot of time playing, so changing my items isn't too much of a problem.

As for my equipment, I don't have a problem paying for it, I've found good ways to earn money with trade, so,
I followed a tip I'd read somewhere in connection with this post: go for a breastplate with lots of ES, it's the best option, even if it means missing out on other stats for that piece.

I've also got a sceptre with a lot of spirit for extra flexibility on the amulet.

I'm still on ingenuity, although as paintmaster explained, it's not great: it gives me around 20% cold damage, 87 mana, 53 elemental resistance and 10 rarity. If I switched to a rare belt, I could swap that 20% cold damage for 60 resistance, which would allow me to reduce the resistance on my rings and put in corruptions with extra damage or a critical damage bonus. But for now, I'll stick with my rings, which have a lot of resistance, because I'm getting ready to test the Midnight Braid Rawhide Belt.

For gloves, I can't manage without Nightscale Pauascale Gloves. Too many mana problems.

As for the rest, it all depends on the items described above, so I'll do a pass on all of them.
But basically,
I'm not looking to go above about 60-65%, I've already tried but I think it sucks because I don't have enough mana anyway.

On the mana cost balance of comets, I'm at :
COC: Total mana 1674, for 417 mana costs, 133k dps per comet, i.e. 532 k per mana bar
COF: Total mana 1674, for 158 mana costs, 40k dps per comet or 400 k per mana bar

For the gems and the talent tree, I went back to what was explained here earlier, thanks again for that.
I just made a few small adjustments to the tree to make it more solid. On Xesh T4 , I died several times at the beginning, so I preferred to increase my resistance, even though it reduced my damage. I boosted ES speed and overall ES, and that really made it easier. Now I can almost be immortal, which makes it easier for me to kill him, and it also gives me more ‘quiet’ phases to prepare the burst setup.
I've also added the blink, because as well as helping me survive boss fights with the tree's tankiness, I can move fast and do whatever I need to do for mapping.

Two questions now,
-If you have any advice on my pob I'm always interested, for example I do not know if my reasoning is good on the calculation of my dps per mana bar of COC / COF and if I should lower my level of comets.
-Midnight Braid Rawhide Belt : I don't know if there's a twist that can work with it, but it seems like a great potential source of mana. Has anyone tried it?

Also this week I saw two builds chronomancien, I share them with you because I find them interesting.
