Zodi.8932:

I tested this out extensively in PvP just now and i can safely say its not op. Most hammers seem to miss and Dwarf stance really lets you down. I felt much weaker.

Something that is pretty OP about Rev now is the downed damage though.

Cause Jalis is trash and had no changes whatsoever this patch. Its fun to yolo however and it affect all projectiles. Sword 2, staff 3, axe 4, hammer 1. The damage with hammer 1 and impossible odds is terrifying tbh

RedDeadFred.1256:

How about an exchange. Hot fix this, but give me back the 0 cd Phase Traversal (I really miss zooming around open world with that).

Yep, they should remove cd and increase energy cost instead. Meanhile herald can still get perma stab from a dodge while at same time hurting core rev badly. I also dont like impossible odds due to pve. Will make a post about it later

Burtnik.5218:

Tbh this is the most overpowered and at same time most lazy fix they could have gave warrior. Moar passive over active defense yay. These numbers are way overtuned

And it started lol

What started? You dont think 1k hp/s is reasonable..? Oh wait you probably are as terrible player who want warrior sprint to be baseline lmfao.

Tbh this is the most overpowered and at same time most lazy fix they could have gave warrior. Moar passive over active defense yay. These numbers are way overtuned

They shold have reworked the skill instead of rasising it cd. It doesnt fix anything at all and people will continue to complain. Rev dps is a joke honestly in current state pve wise.

Lets see if they hotfix it. If they can leave sword broken for so long i see no reason to hotfix it either

I bet they will ignore my question as always

Ty Anet, gj! I like that, keep it. Makes up for nerf to precision stirke and bugs with sword in general

Who wanna 1v1 against my almighty Jalis, plebs?!

Ok. All projectile skills causes anni to proc 2k damage. Hammer bolt, sword 2, Jalis hammers, projectile from staff 3, axe 4.

Thansk to it Jalis is somewhat viable now for dps. UA+hammers hurts a lot hehehe

I would like to know also tbh.

More nerfs, f bugs cus logic. Also that range on precision strike feels so bad. Will take a while before i get used to that…..

Varezenem.2813:

Wait that? That’s a bug caused by the life steal fix is it not?

Lifesteal sigils deals no damage now. This trait fuction normally in general save for my ss. While i can abuse it to deal 2k/sec it still lifesteal just 300

Dont think i should reveal that. On the other hand im curious if it would get hotfixed while sword is bugged for over 2 months since report.. I will think about it.

Ok let me explain. GM lifesteal trait from Deva does over 2,1k/s under special configuration. Usually it hits for ~330

Look closer cause i literally 100-0 ppl right now

Hahahahahahahah!

Rym.1469:

Actually, they haven’t nerfed much.

But haven’t fixed much either. Ventari feels much better, but Salvation traitline is still a kittenshow.

My problem is that they have not adressed the issues properly. All grasp shadow needed is to be ranged pull. Counterblow also needed drastical dmg boost.

Shiro heal being already terrible was nerfed without adressing deflect/reflect issue. Initial heal was also nerfed by 5%. Might as well remove initial completely. Riposting shadows nerf is actually huge however.

Stab nerf in retribution was not reverted. Glint stab trait untouched?

Sword 2 issue was not addressed. Sword remains as joke in any 1vX matchup, on top of that damage bug was not fixed.

The ventari buffs are a joke honestly. Not sure why they even bothered.
Jalis buffs? Forget. Im glad that i moved to Smite.

Thanks for new blc weapon skins and an outfit. You have outdone yourself on them. They are also far more important than legendary junk weapons. Keep the good job up

So initial healing on ED was nerfed under 1,6k value as well. Sword damage are not fixed, precision strike aiming towards random kitten not fixed. Good patch, you can be proud of yourself.. oh wait. No.

Necro was never an issue to rev 1v1. They buffed condi mes however so say good bye.

Condi mes buffed.
Season 1 – full of bunkers mesmers
Season 2 – full of condi necros
Season 3 – full of condi mesmers

Ahhh cant wait!

• Protective Solace: Fixed an issue that prevented the combo ring for this skill from being visible.

bug fix

• Riposting Shadows: The endurance gain of this ability has been reduced from 50 to 25.

It will hurt like F…

• Precision Strike: Increased the recharge time of this skill from 4 seconds to 5 seconds.
  The range of this skill has been reduced from 600 to 450.

For real? Guess its ok for this skill to remain useless in 1vX, i wonder if you ever fixed it to not target houses and other weird stuff?

• Duelist’s Preparation—Shackling Wave: The immobilize duration has been increased from 2 seconds to 2.5 seconds. This skill is now available naturally during the course of Duelist’s Preparation. Blocking an attack will extend the availability of the skill beyond the blocking duration.

Okay.. immo duration is what i wanted. Question is where is damage buff? Still doesnt worth casting

* Grasping Shadow: This skill now grants 6 seconds of fury to the revenant and 3 seconds of chill to an enemy when the attack hits.

Still melee pull. Smth…

* Enchanted Daggers: The healing from these daggers has been reduced by 5%.

WP. Another Shiro nerf yet enemy can still deflect/reflect them. Keep turning this skill even more in a sad joke

• Project Tranquility: The cost of this skill has been reduced from 10 energy to 5 energy.

Useless. Tablet should autosummon on the swap you….

• Ventari’s Will: This skill is now instant. The recharge time of this skill has been increased from 2 seconds to 4 seconds.

Thanks for the nerf

• Natural Harmony: Reduced the delayed time to heal from 1.5 seconds to 1 second. Increased the healing power contribution of this skill by 33%.

Little buff but the delay remains unnecesary

• Energy Expulsion: This skill is now instant but has a 1-second delay for the explosion.

Little buff

Thats all? “Going out and closes the door while making a boooom noise”

because some power specs last more than the 3 seconds that the average power rev lasts vs the condi cancer classes out there.

what….rev has the second most reliable way to remove chills(first of thief but thief is not viable), the strongest condition in the current meta….the only thing it has to be careful is mesmer shatter..but rev also has plenty of evades and blocks to avoid the shatters…also rev has a medium HP..

You did bring your jokes bag with you this morning

seriously l2p issue on your part, i bet you are the kind of person who spams skills and use sword 3 when you see 10 stacks of confusion on you

Im doing that all the time. From low to full hp in no time. That said theres no reason for UA to proc confu 6 times just like there is no reason to break channel on stealth targets.

Imo im up for deleting Ventari. Its a salad centaur, not a legendary figure by any means. He doesnt belong among Mallyx, Shiro, Jalis or Glint.

Me for;

Hammer buff
Sword oh buff
Sword mh rework
Jalis rework/buff
Revert nerf on stab from retribution
Rework enh bulwark to get rid of braindead perma stab on dodge
Shiro heal buff
Eye for eye nerf
Mallyx rework

What we will get instead;
Sword mh nerf
Shiro nerf
Glint nerf
Staff nerf

See ya in few hours to kitten again about terrible patch.

Imo warriors needs something to make them unique in terms of sustain. We have guardians who rely on blocks, we have revs who rely on evades and then we have facetank warriors..

Think about “facetank” cause we could add “new” mechanic to game designed just for warriors which could be absorption (similiar mechanic to deflect but working on all hits/dots) on specific weapon skills/class mechanic. Along with this new mechanic we could add traits that would provie futher benefits from it. That could potentially give warrior identify in this game and much needed sustain.

Im sorry but locking warriors into stances just to survive few seconds is terrible solution.

Salamander.2504:

chronometria.3708:

In the last patch they gave thieves a lot of cool unlbockable stuff and some serious damage buffs. Warriors got ….maybe 50 hit points a tick added to their heal signet…

It was 20, in case anyone actually cares. Even that amount does make a big difference though.

Burtnik.5218:

You cant buff warrior. You need to redesing them. Their desing doesnt fit in this game. They will remain as either underpowered or overpowered as there is no way in between.
Look that warriors are fine in pve, they always been and where they struggle is pvp. Its due to the game mechanics this game offers to other classes while leaving warrior with nothing.

If you looked you could find this exact sentiment applied to every single class. Apparently, Ele’s need to be redesigned from the ground up, along with warriors, necro’s, mesmers, guardians, etc. I think not…

Warriors and ele are the only classes that need overhaul. Im sorry but guardian skills for example needs a few tweaks here and there to be decent. Now take a look at warrior axe skills and tell me they are fine and that they just need some number adjustment. Or physical utilities. Or maybe about the lack of sustain due to the fact they have no additional ways to sustain themself other than healing signet?

There is time for small adjustments and there is time for a overhaul.
As example guardian sword;

-remove projectiles from last aa strike
-allow guardians to move during zealot defense, lower cd to 12.

Voila, guard sword viable af.

Wait.. Equilibrium is a problem now? A trait that actually need a buff bc it req for energy to deal damage sux balls? You guys are amazing. That damage is nothing special on it.

Ele has similiar trait which they can proc many times due to air attunement resetting on crit and that one is fine? Autopitol steal with no casttime, shatter (at mes loc) with no casttime is fine, but this one specific trait is op? Your bias is real guys.

Question is.. why they create skills like that if their engine cant support them? To frustrate playerbase i guess.

Imo sorry but S1 has more prestige than this joke. And yes im legend whatever it means.
Theres only 1 thing that took a bit of glory from s1 and that was amber frands. If you made it to legendary by soloq in s1 you can be proud of yourself.

Females chars doesnt kneel down for whatever reason while males does.. It should be the other way around but well ;D

For real tho, yes, it making it harded to spot, if it wasnt for selfroot it would be troublesome to spot sometimes. They need to change that.

lighter.2708:

everything beats warrior’s animation

First and second strike are taken from warrior.

And yet here i am wondering.. the thing is legendary SHORTbow yet.. it doesnt seems so short. If that is shortbow.. then how huge longbow will be?

Either way this skin is a joke, and when i saw the trailer for first time i have not even realized that it is actually a legendary skin till i scrolled down to reddit comments.. Lol no wonder why they disbanded this team in this case. Like kitten me, but that skin is ugly af, its pretty much glorified ascended bow. Please scrap this junk.

Unlike the crap rev has.

I’m interested in the numbers =p.

Most likely the same as they are now.

Considering the chain looks much slower, I’m hoping they buff the individual hits.

Whenever its slower or not we will see in game. I wouldnt count on dps buff however

Nope it’s just that nothing you are saying is new. Therefore it’s treated like the norm.

Wow really so broken content is the norm now..

Nah, just for reference ranger sword AA is getting fixed now.

Only took what three years?

3 years, 9 months. We got time then.. a lot of time in fact so you better get used to these broken skills. Esport hype

Most likely the same as they are now. Thing about rev sword is that autoatk is balanced around our steroid impossible odds, so while we may deal far more damage solo than others, rev falls behind once you have chrono who can provide perma quickness to everyone. Weapons from other classes were not balanced with quickness in mind so they gain much higher benefit than rev weps.

At some point i hope they rework impossible odds but first i want to see dps once they fix it damage. Also new animations for 1&2 aa strike plox. I aint gonna wait 3 years for it.

Oh look.. first leagues was “skill” based and now they arent? What happened guyz?

rabidsmiles.5926:

new one is so generic looking it hurts…

Wanna swap new ranger aa animations with rev sword aa? I would do that right away and i will even pay you.

Theres nothing to hype about.

mrauls.6519:

Beats guardian’s sw aa animation too

And they can wield dagger/torch offhand on top of gs. Time to move back to ranger wohooo.

Meanwhile rev sword aa remains as sluggish mess which wont get proper animations that we asked for since beta..

Yargesh.4965:

The people the where absolutely sure that there would be no release on the 19th are now absolutely sure they are going to “destroy” a fractal by some way not giving a backstory? What is the next trauma to life? Too many pieces of candy in a bag? The price of something no one buys will drop and no one will buy it? Drama is a waste of time.

I dont care about story, i dont want my legend abilities being used by trash mobs. Whats next? Grawls performing rite of the dwarf? Quaggan using jade wids? Wtf

Time to go back to ranger. Finally sword/dagger char.

If they gave fractal boss Mallyx (revenant) powers they better have SOLID reason behind such change as revenant has not existed there at all. If not.. then i will burn this forum with rage. There is no reason to take off unique (in this case elite skill) abilities to random scrub mobs from one class while there inst a mob using reaper shroud for example. You have been warned.

Varezenem.2813:

Burtnik.5218:

6 random conditions just from autattack is bs.

Can’t disagree with that.
Would love to use in a duel viper limits it though. (for me)

Yeah i wouldnt use viper if we had ranged condi wep. If someone has too high pressure to stay toe to toe with them to apply conditions or when i need to heal up with Shiro (ugh) then i swap to swords. Those still hits decent, not as much as zerker build but still somewhat okay. Going full condi is not an option in current state sadly.
Coming from someone who hates hybrid builds. I hope they give us core ranged wep with the skills from my rework document.. but chances for it are like 0.01% rofl

Forestgreen.7981:

^. I don’t think anyone will disagree with Ventari needing a buff but not Jalis. Jalis is fine damage reduction just taking a sneeze and crazy spammable CC.

Wat?
/15charrs

For wvw as it wont work in spvp that well.

Yep, it looks like a joke. So legendary my kitten
It better have some amazing fx to make up for it.
