Guild Wars 2

I’m really hoping Rev gets more weapons later on.

I would like to feel like there is a bit more variation in my builds compared to people running the same legends.

There are a ton of weapons that could use some love (because it’s not commonly used with most vanilla) and I would love to see Rev get to use some of these in the future!

I’m sure a lot of us would like a ranged condition weapon (maybe sceptre or longbow or something) but really, it’s not that important.

We might get some new weapons anyway once they bring in more elite specialisations.

More elite specializations are all but confirmed.

Elite specs are Anets method of expanding on classes without having to implement more classes.

There will be more specializations in the future and they’ll each be adding new weapons into the mix, once we’ve run out of current weapons, i imagine we’ll either stop getting elite specializations or they’ll start to implement new weapon types.

There will definitely be more via elite spec, but I feel like “core” Revenant is pretty much done at this point.

Its clear they’re tying weapon sets to legends, and we already have one set for each core legend. Getting additional weapons would be out of place with the concept of the class.

Not that I’d oppose more weapons. It just doesn’t seem likely, is all.

Rifle might make a cool condition weapon.

I seriously hope not. They need to do something unusal, like a dagger as a condi range weapon.

How is that more unusual than a weapon only used by 2 professions?

Except that it’s already a ranged weapon. Dagger is not a ranged weapon.

Daggers could be a ranged weapon, Just like staff can be melee or ranged.

this whole system has been designed to allow multiple elite specs in the future, and it’s also confirmed in the blog post where elite specs are introduced for the first time.

The only question is “when”.

my vote goes for main hand dagger to be used as a throwing knife for the next elite spec (mid range condi weapon)

I feel like the revenant needs more weapons. I think with the legend utilities as they are now, which is… static, we lose out on a lot of build variety. More weapons would allow for more unique builds. Either that or adding just a few more utility choices to the different legends.

Only one question remains, will they be adding elite specs with each new expansion, or are they going to be coming from the living story/patches throughout the game’s lifetime? I sure hope for the latter cause I don’t think I can wait 1+ years for more specializations

If they don’t add weaponset to Core profession now, it’s unlikely that they will later.

We really do need that main-hand range/midrange condi weapon. It’s really only weaponset we truly lack. Condition builds are kinda stuck with power-only swap weapon – Hammer, Staff, Sword and those aren’t hybrid damage at all.

It’s not said that we have to have weapons just for specific Legends.

look up the Elite picutre of the Herald here

he Holds a Dagger. foreshadowing anything?

404 – NOT FOUND. Any screen?

sure buddy……..

It’ s mh with oh shield too, so it’s not an elite spec (you can’t have 2 at the same time). In an earlier datamined version revenant had dagger instead of sword. Pretty sure you can still find it in dulfy archive

But the Dagger back then was also offhand.

And now its Mainhand? What kind of skills would fit that they matched it with glint? I could see boon ripping , but what else?

Enrif.7359:

sure buddy……..

wtf he really is holding the dagger, on the main page of hot they erased it though, but kept it on the spec page

Hopefully they will add dagger for the lulz, cause theres not that big of a choice for weapons right now. I dont think it will happens, but who knows…
