Guild Wars 2

Actually have 0 rune on armor.. (well only those that come with it) and i want to spend like 10~20 gold… (for now) but can spend more if worth it… like up to 60 gold but that all the gold i have im poor ya know! and have Black Lion Salvage kit (actualy have like 200 of those) to remove them later when i find better gear (or ascended yeah i wish) so i’d like to know what are the set of rune i need
Here a link to my revenant stat =>> http://imgur.com/8vgDm3Y
PS:Just returnet to gw2 when hot was release so i kind of suck at dodging attack/skill sometimes

Hoelbrak runes are probably the best in your situation (about 8g each last time I checked). Power, might duration and -20% condition duration which is extremely useful since revenants have very little condition removal.

Strength would be better if you had more money (14g each last time I checked). Rage would be very cheap (less than 1g each) but you don’t really have enough power or precision for them to be worthwhile.

There are, however, a lot of new runes. I’m personally considering scrapper runes (175 power, 100 toughness and 7% damage reduction within 600 range). So, check those ones out too if you’re interested. The prices for these new runes will probably change a lot quite soon though.

I see thanks for the help

Scholar is good when you have some crit and learn to trekk Maguma properly to stay at full HP most of the time (or clutch it with Hammer from range)

Strength is best for Herald…as it lets ur Might Upkeep skill on Glint to reach ungodly stacks on it’s own….and then with ur F2 you can get up to almost 20 stacks just standing still

Yeah, I can full endorse strength runes. It’s so easy to get to 25 stacks of might and stay there.

Cheap and cheerful option for the Revenant = Runes of Rage. I think it’s +5% damage when under the effect of Fury.

It’s not as good as Hoelbrak, Strength or Scholar runes but it’s a fantastic alternative and waaay cheaper last time I checked. You should be able to get 6 runes for under 6-7g.

I was using Strength but changed to Rage. Best choice for Power ‘Shiro’ Revenant. With fury you have 7% more damage and 40% critical chance instead of 20% – if traited, so overall 13% damage and perma fury during fight. I’m playing Shiro/Glint and it’s impossible to keep 20+ stacks of might(most of the time using Shiro & F2, sometimes glint for swiftness and of course fury or actives just for fun) that’s why Rage is better than Strength.

I also recommend Hoelbrak. Everything you need for anything you will do in the game, be dungeons, open world PvE, WvW zerging, roaming…
Is not the best for every situation, but is pretty good for any.

Hoelbrak is IMHO the only choice. Strength are nice until you meet condies and you dont have much cleanse options on rev. With Hoel I can stack to 25 stacks pretty easely, no need for strength rune for that, just good rotation and strength sigil (it is op since it can give you 2 stacks of might instead of one – shared empowerment).

I dont have my rev fully levelled yet but for my other heavy classes (Guard/War) i found Hoelbrak to be the most useful multi-purpose rune set. Does the job well in PVE/WvW/Dungeons.

So if you only want or can only afford one set i like hoelbrak. Judging from the other posts, conditions are a problem in which case Hoelbrak is the one.
