eb – when you reach zero endurance you gain stability for 5 sec

so this is it and hope you like the ideas
should open up more builds, more usage, more tactic game and just more
sure maybe tuned down will be needed if some combination get op but the main idea is to bring back some self sustain and get closer to the idea behind the revenant heroes he summons

Maybe use the correct skill names instead of those “aa ch sg” stuff. Not everyone on the forum knows every Revenant skill.

thanks but if they dont know i hope they dont comment as it probably be qq, rubbish lol

Wow you have an attitude.

I guess we’re all way too rubbish for you then. But since you’re so kitten l33t, why would you need changes to the stances? They’re probably all OP as hell in your hands already. Right?

and here is a topic change

can you stay on the topic instead please

and fyi its not attitude as simple truth. if not every one in the forum knows the revenant skills would you expect them to comment on something they dont know??? its just the truth

Alright, alright, nevermind. Back to topic.

Reading through it, I’d say overall there’s one big glaring issue with your ideas:

• They’re needlessly complicated.

In nearly all cases you staple additional elements onto a skill, which just hurts clarity of purpose. Ideally you don’t want skills doing a lot of things at the same time. That is to say, it’s “bad enough” that EM scales with the number of conditions, worst would be if it also happens to be a blast skill and cause a PBAE condition.

Everything and the kitchen sink…

Plus, I feel that you just overall want to make each legend slightly stronger at its theme, which is what I agree should happen, but I’d make it in such a way that it’s less changes + more useful for “hybrid” setups, meaning that even if I have full power gear I should be able to heal somewhat decently while in Ventari.

What I’d do is add passive modifiers to each legend:

• Shiro: 35% more direct damage done, attacks which would not crit already given your current precision will crit but with minimum Ferocity (meaning you cannot just stack power and ferocity then be in Shiro all day).
• Mallyx: Gain 300 condition damage and all your direct attacks have a chance to cause bleeding. Gain 10% condition duration and another 20% which does not stack with any other one you might have.
• Ventari: Your highest stat instead becomes your healing power if it is higher.
• Jallis: You gain 500 Toughness and Vitality, and cannot lose more than 20% of your health in 0,5 seconds, no matter how many targets attack you with whatever amount of attacks. However, your Power, Precision and Condition Damage is reduced by 40%, down to the minimum.
• Glint: Frankly I have no clue how to salvage this. I would remove it entirely and go back to the drawing board.

Now, these are massive buffs. Plus I’d remove the energy cost on weapons. But it gives a single, central point where to read up (the legend tooltip), and overall keeps complexity lower and as a result of applying to all skills in a legend makes each one more focused, narrower. Which is good, the 2-legends setup nature should be a centerpiece of the class.

In return, I back when I thought this up said to remove all minor traits from Revenant traitlines with no compensation, but hrm… not sure. Anyhow I’d trade out something among the traits for this, as traits generally work against the hybrid/roleswapper nature of the Revenant.

i tried to give small modifiers to skills and trait so revenant could handle better situations while having builds diversity along side theme from the legends
shiro steal life
facets do their unique things
jallis more durable
shiro more potent
ventari more support

sure you wont do the all but i truly believe this it right direction for the revenant

ppl talk about 3 legends – big no as you have more skills than anyone in the game which led probably to 1 weapon set

your ventary and jallis suggestion might make them op bunker. as you take toughness amulets and get healing power aswell while have also vitality which anet didnt want to.
also think about wvw and pve
