Guild Wars 2

Make Inspiring Reinforcement Light combat field.

You will have to stand in it like proper dwarf and swing your hammer to clean conditions. Also blast finisher will procc retaliation witch is main theme of Jalis.

Even if you dont have hammer, many builds can take it for sword whirl finisher and adress the condition cleasing problem and Jalis usefullness at the same time!!!

Now Ventari also have light combat field but isnt so usefull on him because its a upkeep skill and isnt so handy, you already have another skill to clean conditions and heal.
But many would die for a water field! Now upkeep has sense because water in right hands is really really strong. Burst heal from Ventari rises and rivals druid, which many find as a replacement for Ventari.

Seems a small adjustment but logical, at least for Jailis. But i don’t think it fix the problem. i stay thinking that a reaper shroud effect (infused terror) need to be added for inspiring reinforcement, deleting this brick road, pulsing stab for something like 5sec. It’s a better way to add a tanky feeling.

PS: I know Jailis is designed like a guardian (tank and retaliation) but for now the tanky vibe must absolutly appear coz we don’t see it.

Inspiring Reinforcement should be a light field, lighting is no longer needed as we have glint for swiftness. Retal via Light would be a much welcomed buff to one of the legends hurt most by the string of tweaks to the class.

plz no more light fields! whirl or projectile finishers in light fields for condi clear dont work. I say this as a former engi main. light fields are terrible.

Conditions are meant to be one of the main weaknesses of the Revenant and I can’t see them walking back on that by giving us access to a Light field.

I could see them making IR more useful by giving it instant AOE stability instead of waiting forever for the field to create.

The only thing Jalis needs to be more tanky is a slightly increased duration on elite skill, road to give stabil initially and vengeful hammers to not get destroyed on walls/rocks/hills. If I’m in an open area with hammers active jalis is very tanky. (as long as it stays in open area) =)

But we already have acess to light field in Ventari!

With hammer projectile finisher you can stand next to a tablet and already do everything I wrote. It is just worthless there because you have better option.

But in Jalis it makes sense. You are pinned to the field if you want to fight effectively witch on the other hand is really predictable and balances fights. If they break your 1 second long stability you cant remove conditions and they burst you, and other way around if you can play smart it rewards you witch condition cleasing.

Synonius: Can you please explain how light field doesnt work? I have positive experience on guardian with GS as nice condition cleansing mechanic in messy fights.
