Guild Wars 2

Mostly rocked around in PvE HOT to try out some builds.

Dodging – Like the Dodge effect. It’s pretty cool, good job.

Underwater – Still missing Underwater on a lot of Rev stances. No underwater Glint? Shiro?

Sword – Still rockin.

Staff – I can’t express how much I enjoy the changes on staff. They are A+ work. Renewing Wave is very useful now cause it can be done while moving. This creates a more defensive mobile weapon all around which works as well as provides support on the go. Debilitating Slam so far has worked pretty good and I notice I get the #2 a lot more often.

Shield – Reverse my stance on Crystal Hibernation needing to be mobile as the staff fills the more mobile defensive role very well now. I like the fact that I can cancel out of it now and press forward to move. I did notice however that sometimes it doesn’t properly block all attacks. For example I had a Frogman in Jungle launch me out of it. Soothing Bastion also at one point blocked nothing when it proc’d.

All around worked very well. I don’t regret a thing investing heavily into my Revenant. Looking forward to a more extensive test tomorrow morning with Herald Front line in WvW.

shield cant be moblie, its almost as the guardians ELITE and its just a skill

The combination of the two Master Retribution traits into Eye for an Eye seemed like it was intended to be a buff, but now it has a 45 second ICD? Didn’t that used to be a 10 or 15 second ICD on the Protection when it was standalone?

A 45 second ICD is terrible, please give us back the Protection without the Taunt on the shorter cooldown.

I wanted to test it further to check, but yes the 5% protection is on the same kitten ICD instead of the old skill’s ICD.
