Revenant Elite Spec
Some of the content was data mined
So far what we know is they will be getting an offhand shield and the ability to channel Glint.
Hey guys, I know a lot of people have been trying to figure out the elite specs for the thief and warrior, but I am really curious about the revenant’s spec. Just wondering what some of you all might think it will be?
My guess is a Demon Hunter or “Mist Hunter” sort of deal, seeing as the Revenant is a master of spirits, and so far the class seems rather close-ranged (even the staff). So for the elite spec it should make sense to give it something ranged like a shortbow, right?
What are your thoughts?
As was previously mentioned, Revenants are probably getting Glint. As to your point about the class being “rather close-ranged”, I don’t think that poses the issue that you think it does. Here are some reasons!
- Revenant already has a ranged option (Hammer)
- Professions aren’t usually that well balanced between ranged and melee options (think how lackluster Warrior’s ranged options are—and that Engineer and Elementalist, as of now, have no melee option, though Engi elite is getting hammer)
I think that shield will probably fulfill a good melee-control function that Revenant seems to be missing (blinds, stuns, dazes).
Mains — Mathias of the Wood [Ranger]; Collaborator Bluatt [Engineer]
Alts — Necromancer, Warrior, Elementalist
Might be a dragoon or dragon knight because of glint. But I think the fact that we already have Dragon Hunter makes that unlikely.
might in the lines of summoner or channeler .. i just hope it has some burst.
My guess on the name is Chosen, or Seeker.
We saw Rylock use one of the skills in the personal story.
