Guild Wars 2

Whats your thoughts on Ventari build in Raid dungeons?

can’t say for sure till we know raid mechanics, but based on the trailer there is too much movement for the tablet to keep up. need something more mobile (assuming we were recreating the trailer, which is all we know about raids atm.)

Well, it’s a little tricky.

With the current information we’ve been provided about Raids all players will be considered in combat through the entire instance. Thus, we’re be locked out of re-slotting anything. So unless you have a general idea of what the content’s challenge contains it will be difficult to pre-slot ahead of time. Since most classes have more focused roles there’s less punishment for them not having the right skills.

However, if the devs do decide for ‘safe zone’ checkpoints to allow you to recover and and re-build then the Rev’s Jack-of-all-trades will be quite handy since the class can fit many roles with a decent utility.

Need a Healer? Check
Need a Tank? Check

If any of the Bosses has Projectiles, Ventari will be a King amongst Peasants with his 20 Second Bubble. His AoE Condi Clear is also very potent.

I think Ventari has a potential to be be extremaly powerful in PvE raid-healing role, together with Glint or other Legend.

But I’m kind of concerned about all that healing part. I think if we ever want to get legitimate healing build, one thing has to be done.

Base heal from blasting Water Field has to be nerfed and it’s scalling with HPower increased

Ah, perfect!

This makes things easier since you can swap in between encounters. Assuming that the encounters are static (as opposed to dynamic content like the current fractals) Rev will be able to swap roles as needed for the upcoming fights.
