I know Under water is kitten and people have issues with Legends working under water but Rapid Assault which is spear #2 is just insane. Is this working as intended? Also when using UA.

It has 1 and 1/4 seconds cooldown, however it’s a channeled ability and the cooldown ends before the channel so you can spam it with what seems no cool down. I am not even a full damage build and was doing over 46k hits against a hero point challenge veteran.

You realize that RA is the melee auto attack for Revenant spear, right? And that the skill hits quite fast after itself, so the damage stacks up and up. But you don’t actually deal 46k damage…
It’s like the (correct me if I’m wrong here) ele scepter lightning auto that just keeps zapping and zapping or the mes greatsword auto.

So they give us 2 auto attacks and use slot 1 and 2? Under water is a hot mess. And for the damage I knew those numbers were farce considering the damage numbers not making the mob melt instantly. I do not do under water too much but I rather have them fix these issues so I don’t panic every time I step into any water over my waist height (and I am a Asura)

1 is condi ranged autoattk. 2 is melee autoatk and the olny one worth casting in melee.
Thats the direction they should went in for all weapons tbh instead of giving us a wep swap and now we pay price for it in form of massive nerfs.

Salt, salt, moar salt. So salty like fries from McDonald!

What issue exactly? Why would you panic?
I love the underwater combat of Rev (though I do wish I could at least use Glint.)
