So, as someone who has played the revenant in the hots beta i have to say i enjoyed him a lot! a couple weeks after hots came out i stopped playing due to real life stuff i had to take care of, but now i am back and to my delight i saw we got a free 80 boost.

Now my question is: At this point in time, is it worth it to spend it on revenant or should i spend it on another proff? Reason why i ask is that i saw a lot of posts of people badmouthing the revenant because of nerfs and the likes. I have to say that i do not feel like playing a broken, nerfed to death class that is not viable in any way (if that is the case)

Spend for something else. As rev you will only autoattack everything to death. In 1vX let it be players or mobs you will deal drastically lower damage from abilities than auatk due to “interesing” desing of sword. Rev is in broken beta state, fun to play at first but youll quickly become bored.

Salt, salt, moar salt. So salty like fries from McDonald!
Playing Smite since mid s2, f broken gw2.

Now in the real world, revenant has been a top tier class in pvp since release. It got some slight nerfs, but so did other top tier classes so it’s most likely still in the top classes in the meta.

In pve one revenant is pretty taken on every raid team.

It is however a fairly difficult class to play properly in pvp.

Be warned…if you go in a raid as a revenant people willl want you to use Glint and based on my research on the forum…any revenant who does not want to use Glint is not welcomed in any raid party.

Why use sword vs multiple opponents? Go mace or staff for that…sword is bad for multiple target dps.

Wasnt sword rev dps weapon? Am i supposed to use condi wep with a field that lands maybe 1/10 times due to terrain issues or a utility staff which has even lower damage?

See? This is the kittening problem here. We dont even have any alternative to this kittened sword. And it single target damage is not that great either to make up for it.

Unlike sword ,the staff’s AA has a cap of 3 targets while sword has a cap of 1 target. If you hit more than 1 target with sword AA,then damage is lowered,but with staff you can AA 3 targets for full AA damage. So if we are talking about dps vs multiple targets then staff is better than sword.

To answer your question…yeah use the staff 1,2 & 5 is all I use for pve….along side hammer 3 & 5.

Dude.. sword auto has a cap of 3 targets and the rift can hit up to 12 times as well. In terms of aoe auto damage, sword beats staff by miles. Problem is all sword has is this auto, anything else result in massive dps loss.

Based on the in game description of the skill that doesn’t seem to be the case…meh I do ok with staff and hammer in Spvp and thats all that matters,cya.
