Class Introduction

Chronomancer class introduction art and identity description Chronomancer New Class Update “Space, and time as well — in the end, they’re just illusions I control.” The Chronomancer wields a clock’s hour and minute hands as weapons, casting illusions that bend dimensions. Fold space to seize the position you want, destroy the very space an enemy occupies, or accelerate and rewind time — transcend the limits of space and time itself. Identity │ Dimension Clock Signature Weapon │ Clock Dimension Clock The ‘Dimension Clock’ always shows time unique to the Chronomancer alone. Each time a skill lands on an enemy, the Dimension Clock’s time begins to accelerate — and the faster it flows, the faster the Chronomancer’s own movements become in step with it.

The banner’s own English wordmark reads “DIMENSION MASTER” — left untouched; see Translation Notes.
