Is it just me or is engineer/scrapper feel like the most unresponsive class? I don’t know if it’s because everything has a massive aftercast but skill queueing seems almost broken on them. They require so many buttons to be effective but trying to hit as many buttons on an ele feels so much smoother.

… I still want tengu.

It’s bugged. I’ve had troubles with skill queuing since HoT. Basically, you should now learn to use your skills only when you need them. It’s really annoying.

edit: the skills on which I experience the worst skill queuing issues are on hammer, so that may be an oversight when designing the weapon.

Hammer #3: you got three evades, in between these you hit and can be hit – if the evade was for the whole duration of the skill, i feel like it’d be too strong

Rev has a 0,5 sec precast. He hold his sword in the air preparing to throw it into the mist, as long as that animation is going you can super dps the rev, but once he does the 7 hit animation you are screwed (full evade then).

Evade/chill work great on the rev. cause if he cant get within 500 range of enemy the skill is useless. Or daze him during the load up time ( works). Basically elite well of mesmers, take care of rev sword 3 (triple CC within 3 sec).

Engineer can spam the ham 3 at will, even without enemy. It can be used as escape (revs cant).

I admit however in plenty situations the rev skill is stronger.

Legendary weapons can be hidden now!
No excuse anymore for not giving ‘hide mounts’-option
No thanks to unidentified weapons.

Also rocket charge is a decent dps skill, somewhere between Poison Grenade and Freeze Grenade. But btt: I don’t have any problems with skill queues, especially not since HoT where SD and all traits that trigger a skill have been fixed.

Because the revenant is Roy’s new favourite toy, it’s suppose to be better.
