Inevitable Agony (new Chronomancer acendancy skill) doubts.

I feel like it fits with time stop at least, it is awkward to use though, as you will get more benefit from despair early on. It should be pretty good with despair when you have the gear later on, if you can find something to proc it. Currently running chaos fire w/ despair+hexbloom/inscrip/ground for mapping and it's pretty disgusting, same idea cept you don't have to store damage.

The ascendancy in general just feels like a second rate caster/blood mage to the other options and doesn't have much of an identity heh.

I miss the old chronomancer unleash. It would feel so good now with the new support gem changes. I don't want no stinky curse...


Well... it's on a staff now, so you can still use it in your second weapon set I guess?
Giving up your curse slot for an effective 33% damage buff (half on bosses) for 7s is WILD. Most ascendancy notables that directly increase damage are in the 30% more range, this one is an effective damage loss because you lose a curse slot and you have to cast it instead of something else.

Whoever is designing the top half of the tree and the Sorcerer class just needs to stop. Witch is just now red archmage and will probably get gutted, both sorcerer ascendancies suck, infusions suck, the passive tree is awful compared to the bottom and monk area.
i'm at this point reasonably sure that someone within GGG took a look at the competition (in this case TL infinite), where a skill or rather skill specialisation like this does exist almost 1:1 and also did exist first.

i think its by now some 2.5 years old or so?

anyway, the main difference (AND THATS A MASSIVE ONE) has already been discussed here:
in TLI it works for DoT, giving the designated DoT class there an extremely powerful tool vs bosses. in poe2 its just... implemented in the worst way possible. no idea what they were thinking.
i use elemental skill. it would be nice if i took whisper of doom to have 2 curse elemental weakness and this IA. however, all my curse passive points are in 2ns weapone set and i cannot switch to use IA.

this curse useless on mapping
on boss, switch phase removed the curse

not to mention that its need a button. it would be better if it was passive
