Oh boi here we go again. Total dot damage is not the same as dps (damage per second).

You are not doing 35m dps. You are doing ~3.5m ignite dps according to your pob in the most optimal scenario on a highroll and with a crit, called best ignite dps. All this is assuming that you are hitting a target constantely to get the highest possible ignite.

However, thats not a thing with Flameblast gameplay. Therefore there isn't a single example during your video where you are even remotely close to that best possible ~3.5m ignite dps. All examples are between 500k-1mil dps.

Ignite Chronomancer – Flameblast Ignite with Recoup & Temporal Chains

This build is an Ignite Chronomancer stacking Temporal Chains, Recoup, and life/mana scaling for defense, allowing it to tank D4 Zesht Hands while hitting 35M+ Ignite DPS (potential 40M+ or 200M with Blood Mage).

Core Mechanics:

• Flameblast + Temporal Chains ensures safe casting & crowd control.
• Ignite scaling relies on big hits, as small hit stacking isn’t efficient.
• Recoup replaces regen, making mana/life scaling a strong defensive option.

Damage & Bossing:

• Setup: Offhand Flameblast + Lightning damage for Shock → Spirit Offering, Eye of Winter, Sniper’s Mark → Flameblast Crit Ignite.
• Can one-shot Diff 4 bosses, while Total Incineration keeps Ignite ticking on Pinnacles.

Clearing & Defense:

• Secondary Flameblast for mobility & AoE, making clear smooth.
• Tanky via 40% mana/life split, 50%+ recoup, and high block + phys mitigation.

Gearing & Tree:

• Fireflower, +5 wands, recoup chest, rare shield for scaling.

• Thread of Hope + Arcane Blossom for mana sustain.

Pretty cool

Just coming across this post via google for some tips on my chronomancer, watched the video, totally impressed, and wondered how much time you have to invest to do this...

Then I read the comments criticizing the build (or the video) and now I think what the fuck is this place.

Great job random internet dude and all the guys developing these builds,

This is cool. Have you looked into the Blackflame Ring?

Also, do you know how to deal with big hits that empty your manabar?

can infernalist do this as well?

35mil lmfao did you get those numbers from the international department of pulling numbers outta your ass?
