I'VE BEEN REPLACED IN RAIDS!
Revenants are crap for raids and pvp, move on , play necro and thief.
Sword DPS is about the same on a single target, our boon stacking has not change, neither did our CC. The only, only difference now, you’ll be using sword 2 off cooldown. I hate it as well, but people are still going to bring Heralds.

Tell me how well that works with your energy management when you are spamming sword 2 now.
No matter how you put it, it’s a damage nerf.

Spamming 2 off cooldown mean you loose 2 second off your jalis hammer or malyx elite, but gain much more damage from using it twice, and you now get more damage while in Glint. But most people are probably still just spamming auto attack like they were before the patch.
Revs boon duration will always be wanted. thats about it though

That is unless you actually have to use crowdcontrol or any type of weapon skills.
Also this is best case scenarios in which you have 0 lag at -5 degen or low lag at -4 degen or else your Facet of Nature will go on cd for 3 seconds (which is a raid dps loss).
Not accounting for the sword 2 skill bugging out or going for seekers at VG or adds at Gore/Sabatha.
Not sure I’m buying the feelgood charms.

All I can say for running a DPS meter for the past 2 months, my average DPS during raids did not change much, the difference is so small that it comes down to human error and party comp, it is no where near a 5-10% dps loss.
But again, I hate that our main damage skill on a melee weapon is a projectiles. I hated guardian sword because of that, I hated old revenant auto attack and I hate this skill 2. (However using it while out of melee range is nice I suppose)
I’m not trying to white knight, i dislike what they did a lot, but they didn’t kill the revenant, just made it a lot less fun to play.

Played at this tanky/sup build:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vlAQJAWinfNWNSuJrJRHl/kskygS4S5QJorcrklTlINIZZN++XNrrE-T5QIAB/u/QSlBA4JAAA
For 7 days from amber to 4 ruby with no serious problem.
But not this all is trash, cos i too weak to condies and has no much hp bar (rev no good stun breaks, so hp bar help very much to survive under stun/focus)/
Before can survive 20+ seconds under 2 bodies focus, now can only 5 seconds…
And laughing at condy rev at this build…
