Revenant was designed as a single weapon per build, class. Just like Engineer. Thats why they have so few baseline weapons. I believe that since this was changed in beta due to complaints, they need to add more baseline weapons period.
Before the new expansion that adds a new Elite Spec and new Weapon Combo, the baseline class weapon list need & should be expanded to include a few more choices.
Need more heavy melee weapon such as Greatsword, axe mainhand
and need another range weapon with conditions such as a scepter or short bow.
Along side another off hand weapon like a ranged dagger, or ranged focus.
But the point still stands. The class isnt the beta Revenant anymore. You made one adjustment, but giving us the ability to weapon swap, now also expand the weapon list for the base class.
