Guild Wars 2

Did nobody try zerk armor with Strength runes, might stacking traits and the might stacking on the Mace/Axe combo? I found it really easy to maintain high might stacks solo, which made damage decent even without Shiro legend. It wasn’t ideal, but it felt promising seeing as how Rev is still very work in progress and I believe the numbers are set lower to help stop people from complaining all over the forums that the “Revenant is overpowered!!!” like I saw when they announced it and Rytlock looked awesome.

They really should add variation utility skills. When I’m building my Revenant it would be much more interesting to be able to choose from 1 of 2 (or 3) Shiro themed heals, utilities, and elites. It would be cool to be able to choose which skills from Shiro’s vast power I want to use. It would allow for much more Revenant customization, and allow me to be different from every other Revenant.

That is assuming each weapon is thematically tied to a Legend and trait line, making a staff Shiro/Mallyx Revenant not viable. For example if Shiro/Jalis were to become meta, I would be forced into 1 or 2 weapon sets and the same 10 utilities forever. Variation on “meta” would be very small, since maybe everyone will want to run Shiro, everyone has the same exact 5 Utility skills and similar traits, so every Revenant is the same, I can’t feel unique. Although it could be very fun, I find it short sighted in long term design. Maybe Elite Specializations could fix that problem, but I don’t see them releasing new ones too frequently.

Of course, I’m very open to being proven wrong. I’m now finally excited for a HoT beta. So please prove me wrong community.

Edited because the word a. (rr)senal was sensored…
