I like it.
Taste is personal preference dependent.

People can exercise patience and wait for the opportune moment to strike. You don't got to go gung ho and push all the time. Be patient wait for the opportunity :)

Warrior. Because it is the profession that made me love wvw.

Anyone with mayx rev want to chime in? How much do you cleanse?

Since hammer 2 on rev is like hammer 3 now, does it still bug?

If ppl hate pounce of warclaw. They will not like no downstate.
Or maybe they might but it's part of the game.
If remove something, should be dragon banner x bloodlust and stat upgrade on. Keeps etc.,

Too op it is. Unless a non power uses it. It can kill your damage dealers fast.

Because you do a bit of damage too as clerics. It may not be popular but you will be loved.

The hammer 2 3 can be coordinated well like necro wells. Including the dropping of I.r.

Scrapper, Druid and Berserker are the ones that aren't so great design-wise but, I think each of their PoF specs made up for that.

> I've done a lot of zerging with Herald and Reaper, two of the classes people have said are the easiest in zergs. In my opinion, Reaper is the easiest spec to zerg with. Although it does require you to know your limits better than some other classes/specs, your only real job is to cleave - create downs and eliminate downs. As long as you're good at picking out the weak points you've pretty much got it mastered.

From experience I can tell very easily when a zerg will need to recover/regroup at which point I want to be most aggressive. I also want to focus on cleaving out downs or creating downs from players that are lagging behind. Besides that, there isn't much else to do with Reaper but cleave and cleave some more.
That works.
I'm partial to revs since it's not hard too. Just conscious management of energy

On hammer, yes. Absorb and draining
On the other, energy and absorb.

If you outlive your allies, rejoice, atleast you were not a bag.
Have 2 sets
One full cleric and one Pvt zerker or wanderer zerker. You'll be doing 8k 12 k in no time. So judge the situation.
If you have enought fbs and heal tempest/scrappers then, go damage. But if you need heals, go clerics.
I personally play Pvt zerker warrior. And it's my favorite class. Because norn looks cute.

On rev, isn't hammer 2 like hammer 3 now? Is like a purging flames skill.
In gen, though, isnt hot specs easier?

Sentiments here is necro. Guess that's why necro is favored by most.

Downstate is a feature since the beginning. To please no down state, the warclaw pounce was introduced. Tis like no downstate with extra steps.
It's even harder to rally now.

If you ever play early eu or 4pm server time, I'm available in na nsp. :)
Many have passed by my care to hold their own in their own timezone and servers.
Else, you can mail me and we can discord sometime, and give you the basics that I know. And maybe I can answer some of your questions
