The Underdog Traits
I’d actually like to make a “revive-focused” build in WvWvW with runes of Mercy and Protective Reviver and the other revive-trait. Maybe take Signet of Mercy as well.
I actually run with Protective reviver and protectors impact most of the time.
Infact, I put points into Zeal purely to get the latter. Although there are other trait lines that I could really benefit from maxing out, I find I miss it when it’s not there ( mostly because I misjudge the safe jumping height and end up in a squishy mess ). The only downside is that it agros mobs when protection pops too close.
As you said, Reviver is really nice for dungeons and WvW, helping you get out of harms way (or quickly back into the action), and I prefer it to the rather short-lived bubble trait. ( pretty sure the downed player appreciates the buff too )
Since I run a build that focuses on…well the focus… I also like Blind Exposure which stacks vulnerability on blind. ( can work really nicely when combined with Virtue of Courage traits )

I use Protective Reviver for dungeons and love it. It’s very useful for reviving someone who’s downed in a bad spot.
