Playing warrior right now and wanted to switch to something ranged. I’ve seen people running hammer on revenant. Looking at videos on youtube though it seems people stopped playing it since around 6 months ago? I assume it was ridiculously op and got some nerfs, but is it still viable?

It is more that meta evolved past it(no backline in any of the guilds). You can still play it in pugs.

And what is the current meta for rev (wvw-wise)? Melee? In that case I think I will switch to my necro. Thanks for the info.

To my knowledge, we’re just frontline resistance bots now.

I run glass hammer rev still I just haven’t made many vids since people got wise on how to fight it now and small scale has gone full blown face tank, condi or runaway. I’d only use it in 5v5 upto 20v20 type engagements. Any smaller and you get focued harder than a necro and any higher and your damage gets washed out by sheer numbers and perma protection.

Some people run Marauder’s gear and hammer in the backline. Pray you don’t get CC’d though.

Being CCed isn’t bad, getting warded is a likely death sentence though.

The WvW meta has changed to a more melee orientated builds on all classes but hammer Rev is a good mix for range fights and can hop into the melee with staff full marauders and if u need toughness swap in some cavs still works very well something like this
