Guild Wars 2

will skill type runes apply to Revenants?

Anet been working to make all the skills fit a skill type for the runes to synergize.

But will this also apply to Revenants, since their utilities are Legend based?

and how will new Elite Spec skill types apply to Revenants?

Can you give a specific set of runes you are referring to? Because I fail to see how they wouldn’t apply to Revs… Like the scholar runes I run on all my toons will work just the same on the Rev regardless of the Legend that is currently channeled.

Only in as far that any unrevealed Legends have access to said utility types. If a legend would have shouts, it would apply to that specific legend, not to Jalis, for instance.

No different that trooper runes on an elementalist or engie. No shouts, no benefit from shout runes.

There are, I think, only two rune types that trigger off class skills, those being Trooper and Trapper. Most professions can’t take advantage of those.

Granted, they make new runes that specifically help out Revenants, but that’s only a possibility.

It was implied that more such rune sets were in development. Especially since elite specs will give existing skill types to more professions and since several of the currently existing skills without skill type will be given a type.

Edit: As far as I know the Revenant skills do not have a skill type so no runes will interact with them.

i think i read that the tracks we´llget, will give us next to our skills and our unique specialisation skins, new runes
it could be that revs will gain a usefull rune in that way
other classes too
i bet guards will be able to unlock a new trap rune, mes new well rune and so on
i just hope they will be playable for all classes with such skills
