Dharma.9123 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 @"ScottBroChill.3254" said:Its good against people who don't know how to watch their opponent use skills. If you still attack a rev using infuse light then you have no room to complain. Not gonna lie they do have super strong burst and their cc for teamfights is amazing, but whenever you run into some other profession who knows what a rev does you start to realize that Rev isn't necessarily that stoverpowered, it just stomps on people who aren't necessarily that good at pvp and run simple op builds like scourge, fb, and mirage and function on using rotations instead of acting and reacting to their opponent. A good holo or thief is the absolute counter to rev, at least in my experience. Rev literally has just enough defensive tools to skate by, and if you know what those are you can exploit them to no end. Another note. People say Revs got all these skills and such but don't realize they need energy to be used. If you are using all you're skills you are constantly vulnerable and sitting below 10 energy and basically hoping your opponent doesnt attack before you get enough energy to use sword 3 or staff 3, or until your legend cd ends. People have no idea when the Revenant can't use skills due to energy and CD and that is precisely why they get wrecked. They see the strong burst and get scared as kitten, but don't realize they can't do much after the opening. I could be totally biased as Rev is usually thought of as a joke or as an op class, but never in between. And it barely ever reiceves any changes, its only changes to the meta that influence this opinion. No one uses invuln warriors anymore, there are less competant thieves since everyone runs sniper deadeye, and there are less competant mirages since everyone rerolled and uses its inherent strength as an excuse to not watch what the enemy Rev is doing. Learn you're enemy and build and fight accordingly. It's not a one strategy fits all game, people. I subscribe to every your word!Specially agree with " function on using rotations instead of acting and reacting to their opponent." - this is main some build problem. People thinking "I am good", just pressing combo buttons and bursting enemy till end. And Revenant is one of the classes who punish for that play,because first of all - counterplay opponentIn my opinion it is main difference between good and bad pvp player.If you in every situation press F1, then 3/5 and 4 dealing tons of damage in reaper shroud in 1 seconds and doesnt even carea about opponent animations/dodges and co - impossible to learn anything (just example).

Not saying that make them OP, just an observation.What exactly do they do so well to carry matches?I think that the +1/roamer role has the greatest team impact potential in sPvP matches. Power Rev currently excels in this role.This. Revenant's exceptional at +1'ing, since all of their skills, while hefty in cost, hit extremely hard. Much tougher to dodge all of it unlike in a 1v1.If people saw the little effort of checking out how most Revenants open up their comboes, they'd have much better chances of holding against them.

What he basically said was "none of you scrubs know what your talking about because none of you are in the 1750s, where Revs Dominate!"At the time I responded to him, there wasn't a group of 5, let alone 20 so how is one Rev dominating anyone at that level? And that was my point. They aren't.You can't dominate in a Rank of people that does not exist. At the time I wrote that it didn't. It is imaginary as his defense of his comments.Side point-anyone that thinks Rev is op should go give it a try and see how well they fair on a class that has no immune to dmg, no stability, no good heals, bad condi removal, no stealth and a tough time leaving fights.

Xcution.4768 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 The problem with rev is that it looks weak to normal people but people who actually know how to play rev is a real threat. And it is taking the job of thieves. Rev is better than thief at almost everything. The cleave a rev can put on a down state is GOD tier. Its disengages is also GOD tier. Its good in tf ...its doable in 1v1 and its good in plus 1. I am just saying that is too many roles a rev is good at. Currently, The classes that needs nerf are :-1:Soulbeast (might generation and weakness application)2:Mirage(faceroll condi application)3:Rev(sword 4/5 nerf)4:Ele(buff dmg and nerf evades)5: Tether war (the reveal on its tether and pulls should be evadable)6:Holo(passive elixer should be of lesser duration than the active one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Revenants mobility costs way more than thieves. The only real strength to a revenant compared to a thief is that they do better burst and got more tools to deal with "teamfights", Also herald boonuptime & cleave does scale great in larger fights. For everything else i think thieves got the upper hand (mobility, prolonged duels, boonrip, harrassment & evasiveness)I do not think rev needs a swordnerf at all, all other suggestions seem legit though.

Even if you could somehow potentially be a huge threat to the enemy team they made sure that won't be an issue with classes like revenant which are +1 classes from which you can't get away which have all the tools they need and there's absolutely no counterplay except getting to a no port spot and sitting afk and hoping your team wins the rest your team, not you"I die outnumbered because I tunnel vision my 1v1's, boohoo, no counterplay, Nerf so I can 1v2 easily with my super skillful Condi mes."it's one thing to be tunnel visioned and to die by a guy walking up to you, it's completely another thing for a guy to TELEPORT THROUGH A WALL WITH A PRE-CASTED ABILITY. It has nothing to do with tunnel vision. I understand that you wanted to mock me with your post but at least write sensible things while doing so. I've SPECIFICALLY STATED THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THEIR ENGAGE for this exact reason - that it punishes you regardless of how good you are. I didn't even complain about stealth, yes stealth is just as bad and a huge issue but at least you can hear different skills from stealthed people and they still need a line of sight and if you're positioned properly you can expect from what angle the enemy will approach you (if it does happen) and generally stealth engage is braindead but still requires more to pull off than Steal/Judge's intervention and mainly Revenant because revenant has 2 teleports on top of insane damage and lol at people saying revenant has bad disengageapparently having 100% stun breaker is bad disengage now? you have stun breaker with 10sec cd on legend swap and stun breaker with ((NO COOLDOWN)) and also an IFRAME on Shiro, how the hell is that "bad disengage" lmao. If you're good at rev you can chain block with multiple iframes with multiple dodge rolls and get a 15-20sec invulnerability period during which you can move (and if you're good you can use terrain to reduce incoming pressure and essentially disengage)rev has 2 iframes and a block on its weapons, in contrast even the "notorious" mesmer has a mere single iframe on axe (if they're running staff) thief's disengage is better than rev? good joke, thief has good disengage with sword but their stun breakers are much worse and they're also much squishier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ofc revenant is hard to lock, but he dont have any skill, what allow to exit fight fast enough. For example thief can shadowstep from stun and already will have good enough range to exit fight, mesmer have teleport/portal and so on. But revenant can just run away with superspeed, what isnt enough to get away from chase in current metaOnly one way how to disengage - found enemy far away and use phase travelsal port. But enemy can also break it (not insta cast) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in a PVE environment it’s not even close. Power vs PowerHigh mobility than rev/sustain (once again no competition). Thief can cross entire DBL in like a minute. People keep complying on rev because they lose to Revs that are nowhere near their own skill level. Rev has the LOWEST power damage by about 20-30% and LOWEST burst but people died to Rev hardest hitting attack and just can’t take it mentally.
