More so in these dark times where scourge and mirage run rampant. Also have you seen the new build will 25 might 100% uptime? You take that trait that gives might on fury instead of the new equilibrium. It's pretty insane.

well, in OP's defense wanna say that he can perform just as good at the very least in my opinion, so it's probably not a l2p issue.

sounds like an overkill to me, especially when it converts to weakness no matter how fast you build it, so I went Incensed Response and swapped Nefarious Momentum to Assassin's Presence for now, mb I'm just being dumb tho

yes, and we already had to adjust the playstyle not so long ago, when they removed hydro leeching procs.

ahh, there's no more little axe chop icon on the pvp death log for equilibrium kills and downs. so sad

Which gets converted into weakness 2 seconds into any fight. Thanks for support tho

yeah, rip. I guess equilibrium wasn't much of a thing in PvE anyways, so not many will notice, even fewer will bid the final farewell.

yeah, and people don't usually apply weakness on purpose, do they? most of the time it just casually converts 25 might stacks on your enemy while you do your thing

I for one hate the jump pads most about this map, not hammer room or scourges lul

not much, but at least a step in the right direction

That was 9/10. Don't actually know why only 9, just feelt like you could maybe do it a bit more subtle.

GS5 skill looks big. What the cone range would be?

Oh man, it didn't just track stealth, it also had more range and did more damage. Seems like a dream at this point.

Whatever we may say about it we all know this game is amazing. The combat mechanics are lit af, so it makes up for all the flaws.

It shouldn't be buffed. It should be redesigned.

Seems good. Way funnier than Renegade, that's for sure. GS4 tho looks a lot like axe4; might need a different effect there. And what about a stealth mechanic on a utility or elite?

I think power with Valk is closest to being viable. Tho the fact that you have to keep your endurance full to have a good crit chance is really awkward (couldn't think of the right word). Would rather have bonus crit chance when endurance is not full.

Looks really cool, dude! Tho I would increase **Mist Portal** range to 900 at least, so it wouldn't end up like necro punishment portal; for the **Mist Armor** maybe protection boon (3s) instead of swiftness (6s) would make more sense cuz it's an armor after all; and maybe reduce the cast time of **Banish** from 1s to 3/4 or 1/2 even.

But it's just numbers, the overall design you've made for the legend is really on point, thank you for sharing. Now you only need to apply at arenanet's, cause you did like 10 times better job than the renegade dev.

Well if you look at herald trait line and Glint legendary stance you see that it's kinda versatile and can be successfully used for different purposes and different specs: power and condi damage specs, good for bunkering, support via boon share, rez, aoe stun break and superspeed... When you look at Kalla and renegade traits it really feels like you're pigeonholed into some certain things.

Like, for example, you don't get the full potential of Kalla's Fervor if you either don't go for condi damage or critical hits. Or you don't get much use from Razorclaw's Rage and Citadel Bombardment on a power build, and you cannot unspec from those.

So does renegade feel like an elite spec at all for you guys? Any thoughts on redesign? Or is 2017 just a really bad time to be a revenant?

Still feels like a downgrade from power herald. Like the only reason to use it is that you really want to play something new.
