BlaqueFyre.5678 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 If you swap out a few things like Mara to Valk and the Songs Of the Most to Roiling Mists you will perform better. Will be able to upkeep 78% crit chance while having more damage and health overall. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vlAQNAsXmnvNWNS6JrJRVl/ksrygSYW5QJYscrkFNlqdACgHgdMWj44PIHykE-jJBaABAUGIz9HC8UAY5TAAA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narcx.3570 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I don't get why revs are so reluctant to retire axe from their power builds... Literally the only thing axe has that sword doesn't do better is s a ranged poke, and you're only making like one great play with that thing a game, tops. Also, I know it's cool to try and make Renegade work, but not having Facet of Light is still a death sentence these days. Once people see you swap from Shiro to Jalis you're going to be everyone's insta-immob-nuke target for the rest of the game. :confounded: Also, also, why Vindication in a power build? I assume it's more for the might and not the extra missiles, but you already have IR for might. Feels like you'd get a lot more from the extra crit damage... or even the condi dmg reduction, as bad as that is. I dunno, if it works for you, it works for you, more power to you and happy rev'ing... But I know if I saw someone using this in a game, I'd just insta gib him anytime he dared to try turning up at a team fight and going after my scourges, or if I saw him trying to decap a point by himself, or really if I saw him doing anything once I saw he didn't have Glint.

Scar.1793 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Herald is miles ahead of Renegade in traits too. Like the guy above me said infuse light when timed properly is the best heal Revenant has and act as a Endure Pain in a way. Life saver against pesky thieves.

AXE has low cds>more often use >more dps ... hard CC .... sword not just a melee cripple ... greater range teleport.... sword yeeeeaaa..... and you never get the sw5 second hit on moving targets ... so its crap INfused light IS THE ONLY thing cause taking herald ...the only thing.... maybe you get to platin or above ... ppl there will simply not attack you while yu use infused light and then you have PATHETIC heal.... but right , over 90% ppl in this game dont know skills and how to counter Jalis gives u stabi(alsof for grp), cc, and hammers that do dps on block with heal and condi reduce ...... and the grp dmg reduction as elite ....you will meet lots of players who easily evade your herald elite ;) if infused light is the only thing that keeps yu alive in teamplay, you should rly learn how to engage difficult situations without a panic button... I use also VIndication over IR because i DONT PLAY offhand sword (because its worse) and dont have so much fury to get 25 might stacks permanent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the only reason to take Herald...? How about permanent team fury, shared might/prot, being able to spike 25 might in a matter of seconds, being able to REVEAL/finish off all the stealth cheesers, a passive ~10% damage boost, a no energy cost stun break, and an insta-cast elite to proc your Runes of Surging. > AXE has low cds>more often use >more dps ... > hard CC .... sword not just a melee cripple ... > greater range teleport.... sword yeeeeaaa..... > and you never get the sw5 second hit on moving targets ... so its crap As for sword 5, you're right that you're not going to land the 2nd hit of Deathstrike on anyone, but that's not what it's all about. It's pretty much a guaranteed chill/slow as the first hit is almost impossible to evade, compared to axe 4, which is probably the slowest projectile in the game. And while axe 4 might have a "greater range" you actually have to hit your target to make use of it... Sw5 can be used from out of range to cover 600, which is awesome for gap closing, disengaging, and escaping those dreaded Immobs. And while we're talking about Immob, hitting somebody with sw4 is basically a guaranteed kill against somebody--as opposed to axe's rift where they can still stun break + you still need to do other things to actually, like do damage to them. Both sword 4 and 5 do a ridiculous amount of damage, to the point that you are forcing players into evading them... This is really where sword shines, you can force somebody into wasting both their evades which frees up all your other abilities to level them... Or if they wasted an evade on your surge or ps or something, they'e basically screwed. As for Jalis, I don't think I really even need to talk about it... It's just horrible. I guess the taunt's pretty useful and the heal's reliable, but when's the last time you've seen somebody pop RotGD in a game and not instantly thought, "Oh okay, this guy is terrible." I'm also sure Scourges giggle extra hard when they see someone drop the road on their team since they can just AoE corrupt it into fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirTomato.3627 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I dare say that most people can't think outside the box. If any build that someone posted does not have an affinity with Metabattle builds, it automatically considered bad. That's how we live now. Also, it's a bad idea to post your personal build that you get used to play with. If you have great success with your build, it will be, probably, great fail for another.

Does anyone think the top ranked guys are checking out metabattle for stuff? Hell no. Its true if you not tell ppl when to use what skills they cannot combine ... ALACRITE... perfext for rev, using after heal to get it faster after next swap F3- perfect for necros on point or everything else whats on the point and for good dps my favourite combo to smash necros to 25% life FE, a5, a4, weaponswap, proc speed, s3, legendswap shiro, proc SOM, IO necros mostly down if you attack with someone else ^^ ez win and the good thing it will buffed with next patch, jalis gets imba with 5condicleanse, reduced upkeepcost for tpvp and dont forget that SHTTY PASSIVS will be gone next patch .... hehehehe so YOU WILL BE SUCCES because never used passivs of rev and ... hmm that tears of enemies ^^ fg off glint because yur heal is your downfall as well Cmon guys the next patch will be revs reborn!

Your post will probably get removed because you're being offensive towards them. No matter how deluded they are. Sarcasm aside. Revenant's current role is to +1 similar to thief, Jallis will never fit that role unless it will become better than Glint. And while additional condi cleanse on Jallis is nice, I've seen very few condition specs this season. Save for scourges of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revenant's current role is to +1 similar to thief, Jallis will never fit that role unless it will become better than Glint. And while additional condi cleanse on Jallis is nice, I've seen very few condition specs this season. Save for scourges of course. That is very true, while some classes are getting nerfs. They still wont be on Rev levels of bad balance :/ Lol The issue with the condition removal, is that its limited (way too limited!) to running ventari (poorly designed Legend, good skills though) Running staff (LONG cool down and cast time) Mal (no removal, resistance sucks!) I mean take Mesmer. I could take the Mantra. That is 12 conditions removed on charging, 3 more removed per a use. So charging and using twice. That is 18 potential conditions removed. Even the buffed Jallis removal gets laughed at. 13 conditions LESS removed, 4-5k healing (meh) and a 30 second cool down Vs 12 seconds. Revenant needs a LOT of work in the anti conditions. A simple fix: Change Mal Resistance to be an effect rather than a boon. This would then make it 100,000 times better to balance. Why? No longer affected by boon duration. No longer affected by boon removals or corruption. I still see pretty much every class running condi builds when roaming, except Ele. Though they are MUCH better suited to hybrid.

Vasdamas Anklast.1607 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I wish we could get one more utility skill for each legend with Mallyx getting some sort of condi transfer. Suck conditions from your party > spit them at some annoying bastard, that would alter gameplay greatly for Mallyx stance. There are also lots of plain useless traits in his traitline.

Or, they could buff Pulsating pestilence. Transfer 3 conditions to your target on your next attack after you legend swap. Same cool down and everything. This would then be good for those of us that solo roam as well as group play. Hell what they could do is make Replenishing Despair better while they are at it. gain health every second per a condition you have on yourself. The more conditions you have on yourself. The more healing you will gain. same 1second ICD but it would now be that its not when you get a condition but whenever you have conditions on yourself. Healing per a condition would need to be perfected but this would be a GREAT option. Hell while we are at it Bolstered Anguish. Take reduced condition damage per a condition you have on yourself.

messiah.1908 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 jallis meant to be team fighter and not +1. sort of bruiser who can support also the group on a point the idea is nice . stability, weakness, cc, dmg and healing buff, dmg and condition reduction for 5 sec for the team. on paper it sound great. but than rev cannot stand versus conditions due the lack of cleanse the add +2 conditions cleanse to SB wont help much but make jallis bit more attractive now. we have to see how the new patch will shift the meta to more power where jallis can be more suitable. if so maybe i would take kalla with soulcleave and breakrazor can put on the point nice support and dmg buff the problem if you dont communicate with your team and mainly solo it will be harder to pull off. think about this destruction line with assassin annihilation (no icd)+focus siphoning+soulcleave (no icd) = 57+306+386 = 749 healing per second. dmg is 820 dps think with mender it can be above 1000 hps...add to that staff healing orb its another 349 hps.... some dmg reduction with jallis (15% from stability) VH 20% and you have nice bruiser with 25 might stacks putting here the build http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vlAQNAW8snXNWMTqJvmR/kZzsgytZ4QZ3MYr8bmFNlqdBCgI4/HHykktMWj3A-jpxHQBJ8IAIvyAA4CAYwDCQZ2fQZPAAA counter - condi build like necro and mesmer, big aoe from guard traps and holo which kill fast warbands.
