This useful curse warps a small area of space and actually causes time to pass slower within its confines. Any beings who pass through the affected zone will become snared in the warp, slowing their actions to a crawl.

Description on the official Path of Exile website [1]

Temporal Chains is a spell that curses all targets in an area, slowing them and making all temporary effects on them expire slower.

Skill Functions and Interactions

  • The slow effect of Temporal Chains is capped at 75%.
  • Duration: Temporal Chains will make temporary effects pass more slowly than it normally would, including itself. The duration listed is already modified to take this into account, so the listed duration on the skill isn't actually changed. (note: The more slowly expiry is affected by modifiers, that increase or reduce the curse effect. The duration of Temporal Chains is calculated without these modifiers and can be changed this way). Damage over time debuffs will expire more slowly, but will cause the same amount of damage per second they normally would.[2]

  • A cap of 75% now applies to the action speed reduction caused by Temporal Chains.
2.1.0c
  • Temporal Chains quality now grants 0.5% increased Cast Speed per point of quality instead of slowing enemies by 0.5% per point of quality.
2.0.2
  • Temporal Chains' slowing effect now applies multiplicatively with Chill's slowing effect. This will result in less of an impact when both are used on the same target.

0.10.0
  • Fixed a bug where chilling monsters or cursing them with Temporal Chains could
    prevent their attacks from succeeding.

    This also affects the version that Maps inflict on you
