[FIXED] The Chronophantasma Bug: An In-Depth Look
EDIT: As of the July 28, 2020 update, the bug has been fixed!!
This is a collaborative report done on the infamous Chronomancer Chronophantasma Bug in Guild Wars 2, put together by Luxroy and myself. In this video we go over the cause of the bug, common in-game occurrences, options for mitigation, and other findings related to the phantasms affected. We hope you find something useful in all of this! Big, big, thank you to Sejsel and his GW2 Scratch Log Manager and EVTC Inspector Tool. Without it, none of this would be possible.
We learned a lot about this bug and how to possibly prevent it, but at the end of the day we hope to see a actual bug fix from Arenanet.
