Guild Wars 2

WARNING: Bad english incoming.

Like the titel says, i love to play a frontline support role, for that i loved to play Guard and Engi so far.

Rev seems a lot of fun for me. And for the upcoming raids (yes i know we dont know how the content will be and so on, but i think a frontline tanky, contol hero would be good) i want to play smth like that.

For all the stuff i testet i have to say, that i rly like to play with mmace and axe or sword and axe with an staff as offhand. I am not rly a friend of the Hammer, seems a bit slow and uniteractive for me.

Glint is awesome i think, and for tanking not as bad. Jalis seems good too, especially after the rework on his 9. But i am not sure about Glint Jalis, i think they dont fit together that much, like Glint shiro, where u cange from Glint after u applayed might and fury and vuln to shiro, start odds and give him all the love of your AA.

So i rly need a bit of inspiration of how to do it well.

Personally, if going for a tank-Rev, I’d build Jalis/Ventari with a focus on self-healing and damage reduction. For weapons I would suggest sword/sword for increased control through chill and the skill 5, alongside blocks and UA for survival. Alongside that I’d take a staff, since it allows for a decent amount of non-ventari healing and some pretty nifty blinds, weakness and pushing people around.

and what gear would u run with it?

Well, I can see quite a few sets fitting that build. The first few to come to mind however are Forsaken gear for some damage alongside the defence, Nomad’s gear for incredible defence and healing (which can also put out great supporting heals, thanks to Salvation), or just good ol’ Snowflake gear for extra boon duration alongside the defence.

As for sigils, I’d leave that mostly up to your personal preferences. A couple of good ones would be Sigil of Purity for extra condi cleanse, Sigil of Endurance for more frequent dodging, or even Superior Sigil of Momentum for some lovely stacks of toughness when you cleave through mobs.
