Nyel.1843 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 ... is something like that possible?I am just leveling my new Revenant but I found Staff + Shiro to be very effective. Impossible Odds + Staff Auto Attack is dealing a ton of damage by itself and weaving it with other DPS skills sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe some kind of Power build? I am new to Revenant builds overall so I basically have no idea what's a go and what's a no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Francois.4328 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 To be rather frank, if you want an offensive kit, use Sword/Sword. You won't get more better power damage than that. (If you wanted optimal damage for endgame however, you'd look into Mace, which is Condi.)Staff is your defensive "CC" (crowd-control) weapon . It's used to stun foes with Staff #2 and to knock them with Staff #5. You have Staff #3 to evade, and staff #4 to cleanse conditions.Although not as good as Sword, Staff can still do some decent damage too on non-champion foes. If you stand stationary and use your autoattack to align yourself perfectly facing a foe, then using staff #5 you will propel them forward with each strike, dealing a load of damage.However, where Staff truly shines is on Champions/Boss foes. Whenever you see a "breakbar" (the blue bar), it means the boss can be broken and stunned. Because each proc from your Staff #5 has knockback, you can do hundreds of breakbar damage to a foe.

LucianDK.8615 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Staff is sadly not strong enough to be a main power weapon. Because of that shiro trait that allows swords to stack up 10% extra damage.But hopefully Anet will give the other weps the trident treatment. They badly need to be opened up for more choices.
