Guild Wars 2

Note: This could end up being rather strong, or even overpowered once we have access to the last spec and the elite spec which then has gone through a series of balance passes.

I foresee a problem of legend camping, due to having only one weapon which are clearly designed to go with a certain legend.

Example: Condi Rev – mace/axe – Malyx/Jalis (at the moment, condi rev doesn’t seem to do no where near as much condi damage as other classes prominent condition builds)

So you’re in Malyx using the elite to fuel your conditions, you’re using the confusion skill, and the displacement for extra torment, now the problem is if you need to swap to Jalis for the stab or taunt for an interrupt you’ve just lost alot of dps, because the other legends does not provide any conditions what so ever, and given the fact the weapons themselves don’t provide much in themselves it at the moment feels really taxing to leave Malyx, as you lose resistance, pressure, etc.

Same could be said about any specific playstyle you’ve built for off the top of my mind.

I believe at the moment, and this could change, that Rev needs a 5 second legend swap to help mitigate alot of this pressure to camp. I’ve asked general Twich chats this and it seems to be universally agreed upon whilst discussing the class and it’s issue with the streamers.

Thoughts?

the problem with the legends is that you can only slot 2. you don’t care about the 10 or 8.5s on ele because you have 4 attunements so it seems not as long as on revenant.

what would help out is maybe starting with 75% energy or even 100% and having a -15% legend cooldown minor trait.
