Support Revenant: what rotation you using for Ventari/Alliance

[Knighthonor.4061]

personally I am not a big fan of how the alliance legend flip mechanics work. I would hope for more control of the flip or more control over which legend skills are the initial skills.       

         

But for now, what rotation would you use to cycle ventari, the DPS themed Archemorus skills and the Support Saint Viktor skills. 

 

PvE may be different from PvP/WvW. So please announce which part of the game your rotation is theorized around.

Actually the control is pretty good for what it is. Just mix in f2 with legend swap.

Go Viktor -> blow his skills.
F2 to reset to viktor again.
Go ventari do your centaur stuff.
Return to Alliance stance, Viktor's skills and energy to use'm awaits.
10s later - F2 is up again to once again reset to viktor..
Do your Viktor stuff, swap to ventari.
After returning to archemorus F2 should be coming back off cd...

But doesn't the legendary alliance starts out in its Archemorus state first. When you swap to it? That would require starting off with Alliance Tactics to get into Saint stance, cycle through

 

then flip to Ventari for what it does, 

Or

We can wait out the 20 second cooldown on Tactics and swap back to Saint. But under what circumstances would this be, not sure yet.

We don't know how swapping would, they never showed it on stream. If I had to guess, the skills stay flipped between swaps.

I liked the amount of healing on the Alliance  Victor skills, but how the legend performs m8 be a bit tricky to know when to swap to ventari or to reset back to victor, players m8 take some time deciding wich is better to act, renegade and herald are more direct in this case or use vantari for more range healing and vitor for closer support.

Still I would leap with the trait dodge leap and heal on landing ,  swap to ventari  wich will cause another aoe heal and use harmony, issue is now im in the midle of the hot zone, proly staff 3-5 after some dodges, anything else would be more hybrid combat situations but would stay mostly on Alliance and rarelly use ventari.

Wich stats u guys  pondering to use with this?

Zealots, cleric, celestials anything else? Minstrells IMO look completelly  useless outside renegade/ventari.

Note: i feel this legend is more suited to use with assassin or Grreat dward, since build already has decent healing m8 be better to pair it with a DPS spec or a damage reducer spec, this way have more varity as in dps, heals, damage reducers.

Maybe Flock runes can be of some use since they have an aoe heal with 10s CD...

Also, I wonder how underwater dodge will work... we can dodge underwater, right ANet? 🙂

Honestly Vindicator shows how flawed the salvation line is. It would provide so much for viktor but you would lose out on some traits if you wouldnt use Ventari with it.

 The orbs traits ...  :(

Merge the 1-1-1 line in one trait and its fixed and leaves room to have 2 more

Vital blessing should be arround the caster on crit or on dodge something like that, and probably merged with Words of censure  to aply a heal (would work with Any weapon but would boost staff skilsl and CD's).

Words of censure:   Trigger a stun breaker on some active gameplay action.

Generous abundance:  Boost words of sensure effect to a AOE effect with a heal?
