Guild Wars 2

Seems the Revenant was an after thought on this patch. Not nearly as many updates and almost no topics brought up by the players addressed here. Compare these notes to every other class notes and it is obvious they just didn’t know what to do with Revenants.

Notes:
Revenant
This quarter’s balance changes are focused on improving Ventari and the off-hand sword while slightly lowering the defensive capabilities of the Shiro legend. Legendary Assassin Stance is expected to be offensive and elusive but was too survivable overall.
Protective Solace: Fixed an issue that prevented the combo ring for this skill from being visible.

Riposting Shadows: The endurance gain of this ability has been reduced from 50 to 25.

Precision Strike: Increased the recharge time of this skill from 4 seconds to 5 seconds. The range of this skill has been reduced from 600 to 450.

Duelist’s Preparation—Shackling Wave: The immobilize duration has been increased from 2 seconds to 2.5 seconds. This skill is now available naturally during the course of Duelist’s Preparation. Blocking an attack will extend the availability of the skill beyond the blocking duration.

Grasping Shadow: This skill now grants 6 seconds of fury to the revenant and 3 seconds of chill to an enemy when the attack hits.

Enchanted Daggers: The healing from these daggers has been reduced by 5%.

Project Tranquility: The cost of this skill has been reduced from 10 energy to 5 energy.

Ventari’s Will: This skill is now instant. The recharge time of this skill has been increased from 2 seconds to 4 seconds.

Natural Harmony: Reduced the delayed time to heal from 1.5 seconds to 1 second. Increased the healing power contribution of this skill by 33%.

Energy Expulsion: This skill is now instant but has a 1-second delay for the explosion.

Ventari might see some use now. The entire legend being instant-cast means the lack of stunbreak isn’t as big a deal anymore. More importantly, you can react much more quickly to an ally in trouble than you could before.

That cooldown on Ventaris will and the lack of a HPS/sustain buff make Ventari have the exact same place it had before…
On the bright side it is more responsive (except for the cooldown) and if properly buffed good.

See ya in 4 months for another 2 nerfs and 2 small buffs. Rev will never leave beta status at such pace.

Healing Power scaling on Natural Harmony (the burst healing skill) got boosted by 33%, so there is that.

There was no real improvent to healing outgoing heal because they neerf Ventaris will. Assuming 1375 healing power.

Sword offhand now synergizes very well with invocation spec. :-)
