Thief forum mains finally got what they wanted, stealth, mobiltiy, tankiness, endless shadowsteps, cc and damage in one package.
Doesn't help that stealth render bug is still there.

Catalyst doesn't get a smoke field because Elementalist shouldn't have access to Stealth (they said so on a live stream), yet it's completely fine for Dragonhunter to have stealth via this rune.
Arenanet is fine showing their obvious biases towards different professions.
It still is a problem. Stealth in its current form will always be a problem.
Most people just gave up complaining, because Arenanet keeps up that absolute unwillingness to change things for the better.
Ye, Eles is yet another class I've noticed Anet tends to have extreme prejudice towards. Like they kept nerfing Tempest but let Druid tanking bs with stealth be for year and even buffed it a couple of times instead.

is it still a problem or did people stop complaining about it ya think.
No idea but 3 seconds of stealth and superspeed is not fun to play against.
Not to mention most other "fun" runes either got removed or reworked but this is still here.-

I hated Herald, a frigging boon bot with heal button that forgives almost literally everything to any kittening noob. I hated Renegade because it was downright dogshit at release (lol at 200% buffs) but I like Vindicator although it has some pretty broken stuff atm (GS 5 *cough* oneshots *cough* *cough*) But so do the some other classes.

Vindicator be like: run around > spam dwarf and weakness > weapon swap > kill them with a single GS5.
Not sure what's up but I had some revs recover full health with a single dodge too.-

What I don't like is that most revs in spvp just kite around, press sword 3 and then GS 5 with 100% crit on swap sigil and somehow instagib you

Anet to revs: Forced Engagement: This skill now requires the revenant to face their initial target.
Necros: *staff spam without looking at your target continues*-

That's just low skill level talk. If you're experienced enough in both your own and your opponent's class, you know that Thief has major glaring weaknesses after any specific combo. Yes, even Stealth spamming Deadeyes.
That's why often people suggest the way to beat your opponent is to play the opponent's build and experience the strength and weakness for yourself. Once you get a feel for it, you know both your own and your opponent's cards and need only look for openings.
This goes for ALL classes, not just Rev, but this is actually most relevant to Rev and Thief because these 2 classes in particular are hard to master, but once someone learns all your capabilities, you need to be EXTREMELY skilled to pull off a decisive victory.
Revenant roaming experience as a result is due to these factors. If you beat someone, it's a combination of outplaying them and them not being familiar with Rev. If you lose to someone, it's often a combination of them outplaying you or knowing Rev's specific openings.
And Rev in particular has VERY fatal openings due to their Energy system. You catch a Rev with their pants down and they collapse ridiculously easily.
Some dementia inducin self-contradicting talk Go get some kills on a d/p thief that's not a braindead, they'd either interrupt you for days or reset every time to avoid these "glaring weaknesses". Thief simply has less of these openings comparing to rev and that's what makes them so annoying to face and popular for wannabe ninjas, especially after general power damage nerfs.
Rev is a +1 class that doesn't have any means to escape as easily. Last time I played a thief I won fights vs revs by simply P4ing poor mfkers. Imagine having interruptable shadowstep alright.
Killing a good thief takes x3 times more effort and more often than not it's not even worth it. If only 90% of roamers weren't thieves (I wonder why.) these days.
UPD Nvm just realized what this is. One could think handing one's kitten over 4 times to them would be enough but nah they go searching for your posts instead.-

To be honest it's fine as long as you don't play power renegade/herald exclussively. Or fight thieves which seems to be 90% of roaming population these days. Running into sword+dagger weakness tanking thief that has nothing else to do but kitten around with people for zero risk is annoying enough to leave WvW and go play SPvP or other games for that matter.

Without stealth, mobility spam and invisibility while simply standing and tanking kitten? Probably support guardian. If you are asking for a class that can be both tanky and kill people at the same time then probably boon beast.

Just because metabuilds dont use them doesnt mean that those traits are bad or in bad state 🙂 , there are people that can play pretty well w/o copy paste builds.
Ill keep sayign rev issue is enerngy price on some skills and i might add that jalis elite and traited its just amazing... if people dont realize how broken the mechanics involved on it and what this skill affects on WvW, i wont explain either.
atm i think the worse performing legend on rev m8 be herald that has been completelly swaped with renegades, core suffers from a bit of energy creep moments withing some skills that could be lessened on energy consumption, dont forget that skills on rev have both energy management and CD's.
And that is why for rev playes the EoD expantion means End of Dodges.... runing away is for bendover guardian spec...
Well Vindicator is actually pretty good at running away as well as chasing people down. But I am not sure exactly what it's role is going to be yet

I am not content with revenant being +1 class that can't really escape for kitten

Second attack animation for GS 4 was a major turn off for me. Particles is the only thing that looks unique in Vindicator aside from Elite abilities for new legend

Is it known bug that you can still get hit while in Vindicator's leap (dodge)?
GS2 seems to have very inconsistent AoE too.-

Spent entire morning playing with this spec. Can somebody tell me what's Vindicator supposed to be?

Just watched one of the best revs I know fight soul beast and core necromancer after 5 hours of both pve and wvw testing. That was the saddest kitten I've seen in a while lmao
They need to remove an option that allows necro boys to spam kitten without facing people. -

You can watch the live Stream recording on Youtube. It has all the traits covered.
I see, tyvm. Didn't watch full length and checked on forums a bit too late so I guess I'll just wait for beta now 😛
Now that the dust has settled, how does everyone feel about Vindicator in PvP?
in Revenant

I mostly see heralds in platin. Troglodytes are gonna be troglodytes for another 6 years playing herald
I think it was just poorly designed. They only nerfed two things about it and it's now kinda trash.
Good luck fighting things like oneshot DE (lol 16k ranged crits are alright in Anet's book ig, glad this is mostly wvw problem tho) and Bladesworn that you should simply dodge and walk away although you cant kinda walk away from your node or dodge it all the time as a vindicator.
And dont get me started on Harbringer, doesnt seem like any class can cleanse that enough kitten
UPD actually, this kitten spec gave me so much stress that I can only compare to early release Renegade disappointment. Sure it got buffed later but at first it was hot piece of garbage and Vindicator gives me the same vibes.
Tardians with trapper runes pull you out of your dodge, you still get cc'd in your dodge, it's telegraphic and other skills but GS 5 and 3 are hot garbage. GS2 attack doesn't corespond to it's animation, you can easily see your enemy standing in red cracks but never receive damage. True Strike of GS4 is slow enough to simply walk out of it so pathetic comparing to ranger's GS for example where you can combo GS4 with Maul and deal just as much damage lmao
