Quicksand Hourglass form chronomancer

Quicksand Hourglass (5) redesign? 4sec buff every 12 seconds feels strange
(also seems like names are swapped? thematically)

Suggestion:

Toggle the buff to slow your cast speed/move speed, accumulating stacks of "lost time"
Toggle it again to unleash that "lost time" and get a buff to cast/move speed for a duration with a magnitude depending on how much "lost time" was accumulated.
You get "lost time" by performing certain actions during the first toggle, like casting spells, or moving around.

More control, thematic, stance like toggle will feel like actually you're flipping an hourglass :)

Maybe have separate resource for casting and movespeed, granding different magnitude buffs.
Maybe only have cast speed part.
It's kinda like unbound avatar in a way, but you get a downside while stacking.
And if you want to just not be debuffed just letting the buff part run out will disable the "hourglass stance" untill you click it again.

They keep changing the stuff on the fly before release.

I was interested in Chrono until I saw a 60s CD on Time Freeze and 30s CD on Time Snap. The two main things that make the class will likely make it horrible to play until very end-game.

Or just horrible period. Stormweaver over here with Perma Arcane Surge.

In Chronomancer I'm interested in Time Freeze (solo), Temporal rift and slower enemies, duno 4th, bc I don't know all spec options. You could expect high cd on this. It's like ultimate. But since it's gem and DR is in the game...

"

Skills have 33% chance to not consume a CD when used.

:O

check my suggestion for chronomancer i think i addressed your problems as well in the overhaul.
