Tablet is awful for wvw play and is completely clunky in other game modes too. The need to have the tablet manually controlled makes most rev players not even want to touch it… This game was built with fast paced movement oriented combat in mind, and it makes zero sense why the tablet was designed this way in the first place…
Devs, do you all want more build diversity and to move away from the “unhealthy zerker meta” more? Then please fix this so playing support can be fun, fast paced and viable in all game modes.

It’s an unusual mechanic but I think it’s a great one. It allows the rev to stay away from combat while still doing significant healing. This is why so many traits focus on increasing outgoing healing to allies. But, I prefer a more selfish setup because my healing is high enough on allies and more often than not, I’m being focused lol.

Have you even tried it yet? I would say it’s a better option that auramncer right now and that is saying a lot. Being able to heal from a distance is incredibly useful in sticky situations when there’s lots of aoe dmg going on. The added alacrity just makes things that much better. Hell, even I would rather have a ventari over a druid in my team. Seriously, just give it a shot and then give us your feedback.

I’m not trying to be rude, but please take your tablet rev to wvw and record your sessions. Come back and show your video of the amazingly clunky and useless tablet in action.
Thanks!
Edit- This is what the tablet is like in competitive play… Imagine if the devs changed it so rangers had to manually move their pets in combat… Yeah.

Tell that to my 10 streak win in sPvP. Lucky or good build? You tell me.
Go wvw my friend and record your session for us to watch. Come back and show us how it worked out.
Edit- and funny how your response seems to oppose a huge qol improvement, one that allows the ventari to focus on other elements as opposed to playing with the tablet half the time.

IMO, his build and playstyle isn’t even optimal. I reckon with practice you could do a much better job than what’s shown in the video. But that’s understandable since the patch has just been released and people are still getting used to it.
Believe me though, with practice you will be able to multitask; manipulate the tablet’s position while delivering sweet heals and keeping yourself a good distance from the enemy, meaning you should be safe and sound. Just what more can you ask for, come on!!
