while being able to 1v1, group fight, and sustain.

Isn’t that the whole reason to even take Revenant?

Doing it all while having mobility and pumping out THAT much damage is broken.

I understand you don’t want to lose your shiny new toy but overall game balance is more important than your desires

And more important than your desires as well. Rev mobility depents on having a target. Without it they are slow af unlike thief.

While in Glint stance they can have “perma swiftness”, or use Impossible Odds while in Shiro stance and immediately switch to Glint for a refill on upkeep, though

So can anyone really except dh, swiftness is not rare boon anymore and everyone but dh and rev has 25% move speed trait already.

True, but rev doesn’t lack in the mobility department, so it’s on par with everything, but not slow af

You dont have mobility if you dont have someone to target as all our gap closers require target to work. Meanwhile druid can gs3 and staff 3 to travel 2400 units in 4sec on a fairy low cd and they dont have to target anything at all.

I dont think our mobility is over the top actually. We were supposed to be mobile in combat, and we are but outside of combat (read it as empty going to empty point) we are slow af.

I dont have to when you even know your own class, in quote

“if you see the blind field, walk into it, making his heartseaker hit you reavealing him”.

At this point you cannot be taken serious, amber. Bai.

Ps. i dont play gw anymore

Colin is done, now you are in hands of Karl so.. get Karled (look at guard, thief, ele)

But tbh im not sure what Colin has to do with rev..

I personally like how they made a different female human version but didnt bothered to make to adjust the helm for charr horns (holes..).. Not sure how i am supposed to call it. Any advice?

Ps. for that reason alone i wont get it.

Obviously youre a much better player on your f2p acc and a pleb, peasant w/e you want to call it on your main acc. In short l2p, git gut, bb. Nothing to see here /thread

slipppp

Actually i played thief a bit. Im not a expert with him but it doesnt matter really as d/p is ez mode as long you know what to do. Trying to 1v1 someone.. i mean.. why? Your job is to +1 and decap, the times where thief could go rambo mode and push out other zerk builds are gone, thief community been saying 3 years to zerker eles, mesmers, pewpew rangers and so on “l2p”. Well, guess what? L2p.

I have absolutely no sympathy for coward playstyle or it community which want to go and take 1v1 anyone cus they picked “assassin” class when they actually have no idea whatsoever what assassins actually was. Many games promotes assassin as 1v1 masterclass when in reality they would get their kitten beated hard by any “warrior”.. assassin are just that – sneak up, murder someone in sleep, poison food, sabotage etc. In straight open fight these guys are.. potatoes.

1&2 – I think its time to update your info. All you have to do is dodge through smoke field thanks to leap finisher from daredevil. Also last time i played thief i could hit someone with heartseeker and follow it up with backstab without getting revealed cus reasons.. aka stealth is applied after heartseeker hit. L2p on your part again

3 – Most of the time thats pointless as usually thief uses stealth to gtfo.
4 – You can chain it for longer and thats what most good thieves doing already..
5 – L2p issue, you never go stealth under channeled ability

As for rest of your crying, thief has tools to go into stealth from weapon skills alone that has.. wait for it, 0 cd. Usually access to invis comes with big tradeoffs like the Loki i mentioned – no gap closers outside of “elite” skill to spike squishy/low hp target down and no teamfight presence.

In other games you move slower, stealth breaks on taking hits etc. In comprasion gw2 its a joke really to even complain about reveal. In any serious pvp game reveal wouldnt be needed, 1 hit from my autoatk would break it.. Think about it before you start complaining about reveal again. In short, l2p, i wasted enough time for you.

Actually theres not much counterplay to stealth other than reveal, sry. Your hit get blocked, evaded and nothing happens, you wont get revealed aka not punished.. spam till you land eventually.

You dont get revealed when you take hit, you dont get revealed when you get cc and we dont know if we even hitting anyone in stealth unless its autoattack chain.. bc for whatever reason numbers doesnt show up. SR in theory has counterplay as you can aoe the little house but thats about it really.

Meanwhile in my game there are 3 classes with stealth. They all work different. For example;

Ao Kuang Teleports forward into Stealth, leaving behind a watery form of himself. He remains in Stealth for 5s or until he attacks or takes damage.

Loki disappears in a puff of smoke. While invisible, he moves faster, removes and gains immunity to Slow effects, and takes 25% less damage. << if you cc him he lose stealth, if you deal damage to him/apply DoT damage you can see where he is as damage numbers pop up on screen.

Now look at gw2 stealth. Ez mode without punishment. Lets also not forget that stealth itself is far more limited (Loki 4sec, Ao 5sec) on high cd compared to gw2. Its really silly to complain about reveal in this case.

>Riposting Shadows

Its powerful (and I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Anet touches it in tweaking Shiro again *sigh), surely., but it also has a 30% energy drain on use as well. Unless a Revenant built up energy in Shiro, its not something to be spammed. Shiro is still extremely glassy, even with that skill, too.

If they nerf it, they will have to buff Shiro surv by other means let it be PT changed to ground targeted blink, stealth, protection or whatever. Shiro without riposting shadows might as well not exists. You know its funny when ppl point it out being op and yet it causes no issues without herald.

What kind of esport gw2 is? Esport for retirees? Spam aoe all over the place in a visual clutter where you cant even see your own character let alone enemy animations.. lol

Dreams of espurtz are getting bored. Mario has higher chance to become esport game than this piece of garbage with fail balance, fail matchmaking, fail spctrator camera, fail visual clutter and most important fail grind based “leagues” for 2 coppers. They should delete them already bc its pure joke, nothing else.

As far i remember its your.. second thread about making phase smash a movement skill. Stop man. It wont happen

Im too lazy to even log in tbh..

Its a rushed kitten just like the fugly wings themself. Good thing we have trasmute option.. so much for “legendary” skin which looks worse than gemstore stuff.

Yeah, if this is what a legendary back item looks like, I really don’t want to see what the armor is going to look like, ascended armor and weapons where terrible.

Thats why i have not bothered with raids at all till i dont see this kitten ingame to judge myself. Honestly these wings have some worst dye combination in game.. with no way to change it whatsoever

Tf is up with retribution line being passive? Most traits are passive. What you want retribution to do? Please give me a list of non passive traits to retribution. Honestly some things i see in this thread are absurd really.

There are good passives and bad passives. We reduce some damage, yep, ok. Is it gamebreaking? No. Meanwhile we have reaper swings his scythe in air gaining might due to trait and my guess is thats an “active trait” in eyes of many.. cus reaper has to press 1 in air. So active, wow

Its a rushed kitten just like the fugly wings themself. Good thing we have trasmute option.. so much for “legendary” skin which looks worse than gemstore stuff.

Based on the post in wvw section i think stability will be reverted back to it previous state so that wont be a issue anymore.

Works with everything pretty much

Added few extra photos

Ill uninstall if they dare to touch it

I found it on reddit. If you press wep swap and riposting shadows at same time you gain perma “ghost” effect till you dont use riposting shadows again which removes it. Hopefully it never get fixed as it is a blast in pve. Enjoy. Ps its visible for everyone.

Rev need strong nerfhammer but Anet can’t do that cause HOT sales will drop down drastically.

Dh need strong nerfhammer to their braindead 100% passive playstyle but Anet cant do that cause HOT sales will drop down drastically.

See what i did here? Im sorry, expansion was released few months ago. Ill better move on before i catch some kitten.

People who believe, dragonhunters should be nerfed have never left emerald. And I say that as a thief, who is hardcountered by that class.
Everything but warriors needs to be nerfed right now. Some insignificantly, some strongly. Dragonhunter is one of the few classes, that only needs minor nerfs.
They also call them noobhunter, mostly because counterplay is incredibly easy.

I was legend 2x in s1 basically as soloQ, made it to diamond this season and stopped playing gw2 as i moved on to another game till they dont fix basic stuff with rev. I have no issues stomping dh into dirt, what i did was counter reply to kitten post. Who still keep playing low skill classes like dh btw? Obviously low skill people that comes to forum and complains 24/7 about anything that kills them.

Actually this skill could use 50% nerf but as tradeoff it should be ground targeted like whirlwind. Staff wasnt supposed to be damage weapon after all, it was meant to be utility wep focused on survival/support.

I think stronghold is a fail tbh. Its moba like gamemode except inferior in every possible way. They should honestly just scrap this map. Atm its “no ele, no win”

Like dis? The only thing i wonder.. how sword/sword with axe/axe will look when both stowed..?

Revert back to Alpine

Srsly tho, new map is beyond broken.. Its looks cool and all but its not playable.. it would be better to see it placed in pve as meta map or smth really.

And the balancing for wvw? Are you finally plan to separate balance between modes?

I think rev forum is dead (like what.. 3 regular posters? lol) as for in game ~2 weeks ago before i completely stopped logging in i could count revs in wvw on one hand in zergs, there wasnt many revs in HoT zones either and spvp.. i would place them at 5th spot in population.

Overall yes, just like our forum rev seems to be dead. Im not surprised tho, how long you can really run the same weapons and utility skills while being bugged as kitten at same time?

Azukas.1426:

To significantly nerf this class in regards to PvP.

After watching the finals rev was the most used class and the only one stacked. 3 classes saw zero representation and 2 saw 1 instance of representation. BTW no team who didn’t have 2x rev made it to the finals.

So let’s brainstorm on what we would do to tone down the class.

Thanks

0 examples. Your post – rev was stacked, nerf it nao. What? Idk, just nerf it
Stop trolling man, youre alone here.

Pretty much standard dev/retri/herald with berserker amulet and air sigils. Rest is up to you

Kite shroud (or use sword 2 and ua to get rid of it faster), dodge marks, save glint heal and staff 4 for condi clean. If they are using scepter keep in dancing around their back to interrupt boon corrupt hit.

Dont feed them (spectral armor), dps and cc the kitten out of them, make wise use of Shiro chill clean and thats about it. Oh in case of rise shout – line em up with necro and staff 5. I personally didnt lost to a reaper 1v1 this season yet.

Most important note – i use sword oh, immobilize for shroud and grasp shadow works great vs them.

Delete Skyhammer, bring back Capricorn, ty.

Two things;

1. Theres basically no reason to continue play once you get legend. No extra tickets, no extra shinies, just a title for getting there.

2. A lot of players gave up due to constant losing which leads to huge q times. Who in right mind would bother to continue play if they lose match after match. Pvp in this game is dead as Anet killed it by their horrible and most kittened matchmaking in the history of gaming.

Personally i have reached diamond, made wings and stopped playing completely. Atm theres no reason to play, i have huge ques and on top of that i blowout other team or the other way around. No close games whatsoever, faceroll or be facerolled. S1 had more prestige than this joke if you been soloq only.

He didnt. He does that on a purpose

Well the only one class i can think of being decent with high ping is reaper.. Slow, facetank playstyle while you drinking coffee. Make sure to get aimbot option for marks and done

edtanks.3852:

Hammer rev doesnt work well in spvp?

Rev doesnt have a hammer. Its the only one profession in game without ranged weapon

Or just make it dyeable/ give us dark version..

Hammer is a weapon that no rev want to touch with a stick anymore. Even i dropped that for staff and it says a lot.. for me revenant doesnt have a ranged wep now.

mov.1246:

I really hate it when people whine that a class seems in their eyes op. If you nerf scrapper with your 4 steps it would remove scrappers out of gw2.
Take a look at wvw roaming, I had a duell yesterday: hammer scrapper vs rifle/ft base engi, and this was very well balanced.
The only reason why scrapper sustain seems op is because with hammer you are NOT forced to take a damage kit or damage trait line, you can go full defensive

Where i was whining? Im really curious. And by removing them you mean actually it would bring them in line? Anyone is free to jump on scrapper and duel with a friend. Play few matches like usual meta build plays and play few without the mentioned traits and leaping through water field.

Look that i didnt mentioned any nerfs to hammer damage bc i think they are not needed for example. But well.. bias is bias

Core necro viable? Buhahah

1. Biggest offender here aka Rocket Charge – remove leap finisher

Its main reason what makes scrapper so broken, triple leap finisher in water field? Yes please..

2. Perfectly Weighted – remove stability

Engineer was supposed to be weak to cc so im not sure what so high stab uptime doing here

3. Rapid Regeneration – halve the amount of healing but increase scaling.

Atm theres no point to get healing power on engineer. It scales like kitten while the base regen is quite high.

4. Add cast time to Sneak Gyro so it cant be used under cc

Cus its pure bs and free reset button if you dont have reveal.

Feel free to flame /shrug

Can we also get a nerf to your main first?

Already did? Among the buffs in other areas ofc. Feel free to check.

Nice thread indeed… 1 is Def broken, I didn’t know they could triple leap into the water field. I’ll see if I can come up with more suggestions but pretty much listed them all.

You can’t by yourself.

You need to use it in front of an obstacle that blocks your path in order to get all 3 leaps inside the field, or ofc use it on a target that will stand inside the same field during the leaps.

You will always leap at least 2 times inside water field when fighting on a point. Thats a fact. Its main reason why scrapper has so high sustain.

1. Biggest offender here aka Rocket Charge – remove leap finisher or reduce it to 1.

Seriously there is 3 classes that are clearly OP which are rev, scrapper, druid.there is 1 class which is easy to play and in the right hands another OP class in necro. There is 1 class which is a need in ele as a support class.

How does rev need a nerf when its on par with 3 other classes? Seriously just answer the question, if mesmer and DH are slightly underpowered that makes them a slightly weaker option but a option. Warrior and thief atm are dirt but that doesnt mean revs need a nerf.

The OP of this thread keeps talking fact that rev is OP, ummmm against druid/scrapper/necro/ and depending mesmer it isnt. With basic logic if it has the ability to lose vs the 4 other top classes it cant be OP, it just means that the other classes too weak which is only 3.

I’ll say it a last time now. If you still aren’t able to comprehend this ,I don’t see much reason in discussing this any further with you.

You are basically saying that revenant who is entirely broken in his dmg-bruiser-role would be fine because other classes are viable in another role – for example an ele who is viable in his support role or a mesmer who is viable because of his 1v1 potential etc.
According to your logic revenant is fine because it’s on par with scrapper/reaper/druid and scrapper is fine because it’s on par with revenant/druid/reaper. So everything is fine and nothing should get nerfed.
It just doesn’t make sense to claim this when those classes aren’t in the same role.

But still you say this:

Seriously there is 3 classes that are clearly OP which are rev, scrapper, druid.

Exactly revenant is op. Op classes should get nerfed. This thread is about revenant. If you think that scrapper, druid or dragonhunter is op as well, go and make another thread for them.
SAID THIS 1000 TIMES NOW!

Actually, it does make sense. Revs are dps class, ele are supp, scrapper are bruiser and reaper are condi. So if the best of our category (revs) are OP as (ok slightly below) scrapper/bruiser or reaper/condi or ele/support?? Then why do you want them nerf??

If Anet ever implemented your plan, we travel back to January 2016/bunker meta because the bruiser/condi/support will be so hard to kill. The only thing revs are violating as a dps class is their numerous dodge but thieve’s have more dodges than them. Their dps is fine.

“Then why do you want them nerf??” Because they are op, as you yourself said.

I want their dodge nerf so I can at least get a chance against them, they might be the opest dps class but they are not as OP as reaper/scrapper and etc… Bunker ele can literally carry games, a good rev will but not as easy as a good ele. So yeah, Anet shouldn’t nerf revs before scrapper/ reaper …

Fyi: the OP is mostly complaining about their dps, I on the other hand, undertake that having high dps for dps class is mandatory.

This thread is about revenant. Go ahead and make one for scrapper/reaper etc. if you feel like it. I definately want those nerfed too.

I will. Just watch it

No, we dont have data but we know they already have system ingame. They have convert it to map change now. And in case of matchmaking.. whos fault it is? Mine? Yours? Weird how everyone can get it right but.. whatever

Burtnik.5218:

And you cant even que outside of this fugly lobby. Yep. 10/10 whoever decided to change that.

They have said why.

Evan Lesh.3295:

There were a few reasons for keeping players in HotM when queued:

• It forces new players to recognize they have completely different builds in PvP maps.
• You won’t miss the match accept because of load screens and get dishonor.
• We can make a better user experience (match accept and map voting) without having to worry about interrupting whatever a player might be doing elsewhere.

In order to allow queuing from outside HotM, we would need to change these things.

• We would need tech to remove players temporarily from queue during load screens.
• Create better tutorials or gating for new players so they don’t hop into PvP unprepared.
• Revisit the way the match flow UI works.

Second page of the Queuing out side of HoTM thread, about 3 pages back.

Sry but thats bs, we could que outside of lobby without any issue before.

Be honest – whats the problem to give us warning about getting removed from que when we try to change the map? Its already in system – if you leave/join party it gives you message about getting removed from que. If you join/leave youre removed from que.

So if player in pve qued up to pvp match and decided to switch map 3mins later, he press that magic waypoint button but instead of teleporting right away a message pop up about removing him from que if he switch map. Now he has 2 options – “cancel” to stay in que, "ok "and get removed from que

Problem solved. So f hard. But well.. its Anet. Looking at the “quality” of matchmaking speaks everything about the subject.

Tutorial is something they have to make regardless of this que stuff bc fresh players have no idea what to do.

And you cant even que outside of this fugly lobby. Yep. 10/10 whoever decided to change that.

I probably wont buy next expansion at all. This one is already nothing but unfinished mess with lot of features missing and no word on them other than “it will come someday”

WvW Iraq map is a fail and i wish them to delete it and bring back old apline zone.

PvP is so unbalanced, cheese followed by crap matchmaking that its not even fun (saying that as someone who had generally tons of winstreaks by blowouts).

2 (3 for heavy) new armor sets. And guess what? they look TERRRIBLE on charr. Look at the heavy helmet for example on a human and charr. No comprasion at all. Ty a lot.

New class which is rushed and full of bugs (main reason why i bought xpac)

Joke story, not so much contest, “3 biome” 4 small maps and so on.. etc.
Lets also not forget how long we have been waiting for any info regardless expansion just to see a new blog pop up about frogs.. its outrageous.. Other companies have no issues to spoil what xpac contains day one as they announce it.

Hmm i cant see myself buying next xpac anytime soon, let alone pre order.

Its fits herald more than revenant actually due to crystals. Meanwhile after 3yr i still want that one
