So, looking at the Devastation line and its Life Siphons, I thought I would take that to the extreme and see how much life steal can be utilised in a build and as many small healing sources as possible for maximum sustain on a zerker Shiro build. The life steals
also do decent damage.

Lifesteal Revenant

Devastation
Focused Siphoning (57 heal per strike), Assassin’s Presence, Ferocious Strikes & Assassin’s Annihilation (306 heal when flanking, 1s)

Retribution
Close Quarters, Retaliatory Evasion & Rejuvenating Steadfast (389 heal on being hit, 4s)

Invocation
Cruel Repercussion, Invigorating Flow (332 heal on spending energy, 5s) & Shrouding Mists (+25% healing above 50% energy, -10% damage below)

Enchanted Daggers #6 (808 heal x 6, 1640 heal, 30s)

Blood Sigil (453 heal on crit, 5s)
Leeching Sigil (975 heal on swap, 10s)
2 Scavenging, 4 Vampirism Runes (975 heal after heal skill, 975 heal on hit,15%/25s and 25%/25s)
Omnomberry Pie (325 heal on crit, 1s)
Using warrior on editor. MH Sword on one set and OH Sword on the other set, meaning you can still swap weapons yet have the same set on both swaps without making the extra weapons.

I’m very keen to test this out as it has a LOT of small heals that also do damage so, to me, it looks like a lot of fun! Also thinking about swapping the runes for Runes of Evasion for the Retaliatory Evasion & Unwavering Avoidance synergy, would swap the food to Orrian truffle soup then for the +40% endurance regen and might on dodge, which would then give Might, Swiftness, Fury, Stability and Retaliation on dodge roll.

I think Replenishing Globe (Swirling Mists) is no longer in the game https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/revenant/Revenant-Changes/first
Even if it was in the stream.

Can’t wait to see the results of your build however.

Ah, yeah, wasn’t sure about that, the info I could find was conflicting, I’ll remove it.

That orb was cool on paper, but actually bad because of many unwanted engagements. Maybe if it didnt do any damage…
