Guild Wars 2

What u guys think about that?? We know that atm thief and mesmer can be deadly together , if 2 players have rly good synergy they can tak down anyone in few seconds.

u guys think that combination of necro and revenant might be rly strong??

It´s called Revenant^^ and I don´t think we have enough information about the class and the changes/specialization coming to Necro yet to make valid assumptions about possible synergies.

I don’t see why Necro/Revenant would be better than Necro/Engi.

In guessing revenant will go nicely with ele.

Better Torment? Doesn’t take a lot of Torment to be better than burning, but Engies burst more different conditions faster than what we’ve seen Revenants be capable of.

Torment is good, but I don’t think it particularly makes up for what they lose compared to engi. There is just so much aids spam from Necro/Engi that I don’t see Necro/Revenant making up for, especially since it is ranged large AoE vs melee.

Isn’t any assessment of synergy at this point moot? There’s vanilla profession balance coming, player based defiance, stability changes, resistance boon, specializations, etc. How can you possibly discuss synergy for a pvp environment we practically have no info on?

I said this instantly after the Rev preview but I don’t recall the thread. We still haven’t seen what DPs and Support have up their sleeves though.

Afaik the reve can support with:
-main condis torment and confusion
-3s taunt
-resistance, the condi immunity boon

From this the engie still wins but it looks like the 2nd best condi duo. Maybe if they share enough resistance – we could drop offhand dagger transfer for more boonrip

plus that stability line could actually help necro partners out of position and rev can pull and apply burning with mace/axe

Or pull enemies into marks and wells and keep em there. Looking forward to work with necros

Revenant could be a very good peeler. Especially with Hammer.

Necro could, possibly, cleanse the Rev once in a while and just double the condis. Also, Mallyx has nice Torment and Confusion. Jalis has good Stability. Both have boonhate.

Yes, it could work.

The reason why Engi/Necro is strong isn’t because of the condi spam it’s because of the cc spam. Most meta builds run 1 stunbreak, so you use engi knockback and then when they stunbreak it you go into a 4s fear chain followed by crate, RIP.
