Hi!

I’ve tried the Revenant with the boon trial and It will probably be my go to for the lvl boost or at least the target of a lot of tome of knowledges xD

This game let me even like the PvP (which I usually hate), so it can be an option in the future.

Thing is: being “in meta or not”, I’ll mainly play demon/assassin for PvE. Since I don’t want to focus on too many things about equipment and I’d like to avoid the usual zerk, I need some advices on the equip I may get.

I’d focus on Power + Vitality/Thoughness + Ferocity/Precision, since I want a reliable dps with some survivability in PvP too.

Thoughness over vitality? Precision over ferocity? And, more important, Why?

Remember that I can easily stick to exotic and I prefer going with low cost alternatives which can be easily bought or crafted, since this is not my main right now and I don’t have enough time to farm ascended or other “hard to get” pieces.

Aaaand… I like the “dual sword” for roleplay/appearence reasons, but I guess Sword/Axe is a bit better in terms of DPS, isn’kitten
And what about secondary equip? Hammer or Staff?

Thanks a lot!

1. Stick with Berserker’s. You’ll have enough passive/active ways to mitigate/avoid damage without sacrificing yours. If you really want some more survivability without losing too much damage, try some Marauder stuff mixed in or full.

2. S/A is better for PvE, but S/S is a good PvP setup for dueling and OH Sword’s low CD block (that wont root you like Sh’s does)

3. Second weapon’s debatable. Most will agree that staff is best since it’s got the one best skills to melt breakbars in Staff 5, a low CD block, and a minor heal/condi clear while not being too bad for damage overall. Hammer’s mostly only needed for ranging stuff you dont want to melee, so you can keep an exotic one in your bag until you need it I guess.
