Guild Wars 2

This ventari tablet for revenant wont this be too underpowered since to do anything u have to get that tablet to move ?

we haven’t even seen how it works yet.

From what information was provided, I’ll never use the Ventari legend unless there’s weapon swap. A barely-DPS legend is useless in instanced group content with things that have healthbars.

depends what you’re doing. from a ranger PoV, that anti-projectile bubble on an upkeep cost seems really strong. Of course i’m not saying it’s op though, we know very little about it thusfar.

Really interesting mechanic. I’m wondering if its an instant cast – and if you can order it to move while disabled?

Sure you will. Near-permanent projectile absorb uptime is great, plus you can run DPS weapons and the power-based legend and swap to that when you don’t need the projectile management.

Sounds like a replacement/remake to the RIP’d Guardian Tomes. ;o

Man, if they add a weapon swap… Just… I picture it being much better than the current situation. Also, Dusk, you are assuming on a power legend that the staff will be the highest DPS weapon… I’m assuming sword will be.

We’ll see in just over 24 hours when PoI begins. Well, in just over 24 hours plus however many minutes it takes them to actually start

Yeah, I don’t think staff will see play in PvE at all. It might have seen some use if there were a weapon swap so you could run S/S + Staff. Still, at least being able to swap between two legends means Ventari and Jalis will see some play coupled with Shiro.

Donari’s right, though… Maybe the staff will have incredible power coefficients, bit—Nah, who are we kidding.

Its like Orianna in LoL. Is Orianna underpowered? Nope definitely not. Just has a higher skill requirement to fully utilise.

Does it matter? Would could use Hammer, or Axe/Mace. You aren’t restricted to a specific weapon set for a legend, some just flow better. But you also have three trait lines to work with. So you could do one trait for Ventari, One for your power legend and the third to buff a weapon set outside of those legends.

I really don’t understand why people are crapping on something we only know half the skills for and none of the traits for, for a class that we’ve only played a very small amount of in the first place, if at all.
