Guild Wars 2

Ey Guys,
(sorry for my english)
Im taking the time to let you know about an exploit with the Revenant.
The exploit is that you can have perma Resistance without any cost of your Energy or CD.

• All you have to do is Draw Weap on Pain Absorption and repeat it, you will be able to stack 20s of resistance and perma hold it..

I found the exploit when i was roaming in WvW on a Zerker Hammer Jallis/Malyx Rev and I got into a 1v2 Vs condi thief and Condi PU Mesmer.
There was so many condition(I had perma imob,17 stack of confusion,bleed poison burning etc) that the 1st time i got Ereckted.
On my way back of the respawn, I was using Draw Weap all skill and I realised that using draw weap on Pain Absorption was giving you Resistance (cause of a trait that give resistence to your demon stances) without any CD or NRJ cost + it was spamable..
Ive stack 20s of resistance (cant stack more), found the condi thief and mesmer and I beat em 1v2 on manny occasion ( cause they were hunting me).

Sorry i have no picture or videos to prove the exploit

I say leave it. Gives the rev some viability in a PvP setting.
“What, you want to condi burst me, and keep me immobile? To that, I say ha!”
Not as if boon stripping doesn’t exist. Just be a counter to it. ;p

Just move Resistance to the end of the cast.

@Roy, To be honest, Demonic Defiance could’ve been baselined. It’s pretty much a no-brainer for PvP or something competitive with conditions present.

Or keep it, but buff the Resistance duration to 3s, so I don’t have to aggressively mash Embrace to sustain any Resistance in non-teamfight situation.

I say no.
That would be like Obsidian Flesh Ele’s just without the 90% health restriction and without the need to take the GM for it… clear why it’s not a good idea?

(besides, ele’s earth GM’s should be reworked as they are simply too situational, just in case a dev reads this )

I agree with both those suggestions.
