Guild Wars 2

Hey all!

Sorry to bother you but I was wondering if you and your fellow number cruncher alike could help me! You see I have just reached level 80 on my Revenant and considering my lack of investment into the game I am finding myself at an empass; I really have no idea what I am doing. So if you could offer a lending hand I would greatly appreciate it. I am looking to make a Offensive Support build. A boon stacker with a kick…. Any suggestions?

First thing you need to do is working on getting Glint fully unlocked. Glint is great for stacking boons on your group and shield is a very nice support weapon. I like Jalis as a second legend. While I suggest hammer for your second weapon set, you could always give staff a try to be more support heavy. For gear, go with berserker.

That sounds like a great suggestion! Any ideas about runes, sigils, and gear sets?

Here is a build I came up with. Haven’t tested it yet as I’m still acquiring all the gear but on paper, it seems pretty good. Basically, it will allow you to push out plenty of healing while also maintaining a decent amount of damage output therefore fitting the offensive support role. Ventari is for pure healing and go into Glint to deal out damage by stacking might and fury. As I said though, I haven’t tested it yet so I’m sure there are some things that could be tweaked but I think it looks pretty good right now.

I’m using strength runes and strength/force sigils. There are cheaper options, though. As I said, berserker for gear. you need offensive stats if you want to be able to contribute solid dps.

Couple things I’d think about:

• If you want a more tanky offensive support
  Why -> Good condi damage, some boon stripping and lots of might stacking with glint and fire fields from mace. Can also run Mallyx and get Spontaneous Destruction if more boon stripping is needed.

• If you want a healer offensiveish support
  Why -> Good self and group healing with shield + Ventari, good condi removal with Ventari, amazing source of Protection with Tablet + Bolster Fortifications, projectile destruction and light combo field with Protective Solace, respectable condi damage and fire fields with mace, can play pretty much any other legend together with Ventari if you feel like it.

Thank you all for your replies and I have taken some time to look at each and everyone of them. Plenty of food for thought to say the least. I am more of a run around the map type of guy assisting fellow adventurers along the way so I am aiming to stack boons like no other – I was thinking runes of leadership in Commander gear but unsure how that will work .
