Guild Wars 2

I enjoyed the stress test for the Rev this past weekend. I love the mechanics of the Hammer. It’s the first prof I actually enjoy the hammer. ((PS: please make greatsword usable for Revs)).

I thought it was creative to make the staff “melee”, but at the same time it’s mechanics don’t make sense. The staff’s skills seem to focus on “support” so making it melee ranged seems like a bad idea to me.

Suggestion:

1. Staff, Since the theme of the Rev seems to follow through with “spirits” and “portals” I had a unique idea for the staff’s 1 attack. What if, instead of melee the first attack was a ranged attack as such:

The idea of the staff 1 would be like an “extend stick” (monkey king) idea, but instead of actually extending, the staff would phase into a portal and exit out up to 1,500 feet. So, another wards, if the enemy is at 1,500 feet or less, the staff auto attack would reach the enemy dealing damage. And maybe it’s 3rd hit causes confusion or something.

2. Also, I don’t know if it’s already in the works, but I hope the Rev gets great sword (gs) and also gets a unique play style. It would be awesome if the great sword on a Rev functioned like a yoyo or something. Similar to the Mesmer Great Sword throw (4 I believe), except it would come back similar to the hammer 1 on the rev. And it’s other attacks would be similar yoyo mechanics. “Around the world” would send it out forward and then spin around the Rev 360* a couple times before returning to the caster while the Great Sword spins horizontally. “Walking the Dog” would center the GS in the ground while rotating the blade vertically through the ground and in a linear path forward 1,000 feet or something.

Just some fun ideas I had. Doubt something that creative would happen, but would be cool to see. And I’ll admit, it would make using the Greatsaw Chainsword super epic! Everyone would want one just for the Rev YoYo mechanics.

~Hydra

Hydra Namooth.5301:

Abbadon

Doubt about this one because it was a god and the boss of the legend mallyx. ^^
But this is fun, I want to add some more “legends”:

Cynn
Gwen
Razah
Togo
Eve
Brandor
Koss
Margrid

Would be nice to get some female legends, because actual rev is lacking.

Well as i said before, the most obvious legend is missing

I’d love to see snaff ,<3

Spearmarshal Kormir is the 6th god….. how do people keep forgetting this? XD

But given the Mist legends thus far, most of that list don’t qualify at face value. We know Glint is going to end up being the Elite Rev spec (unless this is the most resource intensive troll they’ve done to date).

So lets go through the list.

Palawa Joko – Still alive…ish. Going to be a major element of the Elona campaign (if we get that far).

Varesh Ossa – Not sure how to place her. On the one hand, drew power from abbadon. On the other he was an accomplished general.

Vizier Khilbron – Has potential, but hard to place as a theme.

Glint – semi-confirmed

Spearmarshal Kormir- Is a god. Disqualified as most mist walkers have unique rules of existence.

Prince Rurik – Has great potential being both a Legendary Hero,with powerful events surrounding his life (which the mists echos strongly).

Mhenlo or Xandra – I’m still on the fence with Mhenlo. I can kind of see a theme with Smiting, but he sits right on the line of Legendary to which most other characters from GW1 was on one side of the other on.

Abbadon – Mist walker, disqualified. Also existence shattered, and power absorbed by Kormir.

Cynn- Not sure about her for the same reason Mhenlo is a tough call.
Gwen- Has great potential due to powerful emotional events of her youth.
Razah- Child of the Mists, not sure how his existence works. He may still be very much alive.
Togo- Strong potential. Has bonds with the Mist as a Ritualist, head master of Shingjei, died at the hands of Shiro in a ritual to restore Shiro’s body
Koss- Also has potential

Ones I do think can qualify.
- Althena- Died in sacrificial fire at the hands of the Charr, accomplished Mesmer
- Saint Victor and Archemorus, – Both died in Jade wind, both leaders of their respective states, and both prominently involved in the slaying of Shiro
- Vizu – Died in the Jade Wind, also prominent in the slaying of Shiro
