Let's fix Renegade and Revenant (recap)

Can I just say that apart from the statue in the Black Citadel, there’s nothing to say Kalla actually primarily wielded a great-sword, there isn’t enough lore to be able to make assumptions of how Kalla fought, we only have a description of her duel with the Iron legion imperator Ironstrike where she bled him to submission. Npcs mix and match armour types with professions all the time and besides; rangers can wield great-swords and short-bows.

I like the idea of the rest of the changes though, bumped.

Norn flavored e-spec

Wow! I was also thinking of an e-spec based around the Owl spirit – I’m glad someone else was thinking the same!! I’d really like for it to happen because like Kalla, it’s a part of pre-GW2 lore that hasn’t been explored all that well and could give Anet the opportunity to. I was thinking main hand axe (duel wielding axes just screams Norn for me) and a more escape (swiftness, quickness, stun breaks) and sharing with allies and protecting allies because Owl’s deeds to help the Norn in the exodus would have been what echoed in the mist for the revenant to call upon. I won’t derail this post any further.

Renegade is SO LAME

My understanding is that the utilities are not AI. They are more like wells with fancy animations. It’s not like a spirit or a minion that you can kill and it doesn’t act on its own.

And the xpac is out in September. They certainly aren’t going to redo the elite at this stage of the game.

They’re all killable. They’re like a mix of AI and a well.

Renegade Traits?

the sb and renegade skills look kittening garbage so far (for pvp and wvw), hope the traits are gonna make up for that..

Wait Spell breaker looks bad? I was interested based on the trailer. I need to head over to the warrior forum and find out what’s the word around there.

I think by “sb” they’re referring to the “soul beast”.

In relation to the traits, in Aurora Peachy’s video: When she used the “scorchrazor” skill (short bow 5) the golem had cripple (looks like 3 seconds) applied to it which isn’t skill’s tooltip but Idk, could still be traited.

what the hell is renegade icon, shortbow shooting greatswords?

I think it’s an arrow going through a portal.

What is the revenant symbol supposed to be?

Rory Cronacher said on this forum: “It’s supposed to resemble a ‘third eye’, kind of like enlightenment, for revenant’s ability to use these powers learned from historic legendary beings in the mists”

It’s similar to the symbol of the ritualist from Guild Wars 1.
