Raknar.4735 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) The new Celebrating Nine Years of Guild Wars 2 Blogpost has an interesting silhouette, that could be the new Rev elite spec. Here's the silhouette i'm referring to: https://imgur.com/UyJEvVL Many spikes (Bounty-Hunter gloves?), something that looks like the current blindfolds ingame and a spiked greatsword.

Xaylin.1860 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Nice catch. Since ANet updated the order of e-spec icons it could indeed be GS Revenant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediahead.3542 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I guess they really are getting a GS. I don't wanna sound like I'm complaining, but I was kinda hoping for an asura-themed e-spec (Someday, my rev...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Trident currently has condition depending on legend) Just not with strictly conditions. Shiro also could get damage bonuses on gs skills or ventari could heal allies on enemy hit with ur gs. As i said there are multiple variants and they neednt be conditions or the ones i mentioned. But since Trident got sth depending on legend, i would think gs would be awesome if it would also do sth depending on legend. Means: it can be a power weapon, condi weapon, tanking weapon or a weapon Swap (thats not double staff) for heal revenant. Would be cool imo.

Zhaid Zhem.6508 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) Hope it's Balthazar's legend. Hear him grumble and threaten me, I'd love that. Edited August 24, 2021 by Zhaid Zhem.6508 4 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All elite specs are supposed to be connected with Canthan lore, this makes Balthazar as the legend a bit unlikely, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is unlikely, but I want to ask: I see the connection between WB and Cantha, since they are a kind of bodyguards/assault trrops from the emperor, but what are the connections of Harbinger and Virtuoso with Cantha? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legends don't have to be Cantha connected, as they haven't really been very "expansion connected" until now (Glint, Kalla). It is more about the theme of the legend fitting the expansion. Glint => Protection => rescuing the Pact, preventing Mordremoth from killing your people Kalla => Rebellion => Fight against Joko & Balthasar => Rebellion 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From official lore : Cantha is an ancient nation filled with culture, and what you get with that kind of age is tradition and heritage, and their combat and warfare is really no different, and the mesmer is kind of the embodiment of those themes. At the monasteries of Shing Jea they've learnt to channel all of their telekinetic powers into their main hand dagger (their new weapon), and instead of producing clones, they now use all of that energy to create blades to aid them in battle In Cantha people have discovered, that you can extract ancient magic from the jade (as a result of the jade wind), and the Harbingers who are also very adept alchemists have realised that they can take that energy and imbue it into their elixirs as well as their bullets (for their main hand pistol) and the result is incredibly deadly and noxious — Indigo Boock Edited August 24, 2021 by Parthenos Polias.5683 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't tell about the virtuoso, I guess they will make up some stuff (maybe we get some NPCs telling us about the classes lore again?), but harbinger makes some sense. In Cantha of GW1, there has been an organisation called the Am Fah. This group was experimenting with the plague created by Shiro's magical outbreak to strengthen their own soldiers. Many members of the Am Fah have been necromancers and they have been skilled alchemists, I think harbingers are their successors, necromancers which are still experimenting with dangerous concoctions to strengthen their power. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Inquest are obsessed with that guy for a reason. Removal of Retaliation might make him a bit harder to do, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Ketsu.4569 Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Pretty good chance OP is right. Looks like heavy armor. Looks like it's wearing a blindfold of some type. Data leaks practically confirm GS for rev. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
