sinsrock.1702 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Hey whats up guys so I wana start by saying my gear---- Zerk/Mara with Dura runes "wanted to try out firework ? is it worth?"power shiro build with Herald also running hydro rune with 2 energy anyways im looking for the best opening combo! I love being on glint to start but it seems that being on shiro to start is betteropening combo ive been doing phase transverse -death strike-precision strike- unrelenting assault -legend swap. and then just pressure using glint abilities is there a better combo? what other combos can I use to be able to do more things with the remaining skills? maybe a good staff combo? im still learning rev but I definitely feel that learning the combos a class can do will be a good start, thanks guys :) ive been doing pretty well so far just looking to really dial in my skills :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Why would you run firework on herald? Herald has plenty mobility with glint and/or the movement trait.After sword changes I find it much harder to immob people with rev sword offhand.

Spartacus.3192 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Personally i find rev has so much damage and perma 25 might stacks that you dont need a power rune. I like to use a defensive rune instead like rune of durability or rune of resistance to make up for revs weaknesses. Ive actually been using some Diviner gear for boon duration.

But honestly, Fireworks has a lot of wasted stat weight for Rev's in that 125 precision (especially if yer using some mara gear), and pack's proc has both a lower cooldown and will give boons to any allies in your area--fireworks' boons are self-only.Leadership is also a nice power spike (not as big), but has added survivability and cleanse (although you have to use the facet release to proc cleanse, unlike surging.)opening combo ive been doingphase transverse -death strike-precision strike- unrelenting assault -legend swap. You shouldn't use Deathstrke after PT unless you need the double movement skills to close on your target (and even then you're usually better off doing DS before the PT--unless you want the soft cc.) This is because you should never be counting on DS's 2nd strike to actually hit... Anyone who doesn't dodge this will most likely lose to you 100%-0% no matter what you do. By using PT+DS, you're effectively wasting PT's damage bonus and unblockable status. You're much better off using PT and then Precision Strike from inside their hitbox or doing the ole classic PT+SotM. DS is best used for mobility to chase, escape, get out of an immobilize, or to force someone to waste a dodge to set up a combo, you shouldn't be wasting modifiers on it, because again, it's just gonna get dodged.

The pure amount of stats it gives you is too good and lets you wear more zerker gear because of it.Also, with DS, don't be afraid to use it just to see if you hit somebody with it--so many roamers are like, real bad. But like, just don't invest too much into it (like your active PT procs.) Also also, sometimes it's worth it for the soft cc, since that part of the attack does almost always land. It's great for setting up combos like that, gives you fury/5 might, gives them chill/slow, and probably just made them waste a dodge--which is a trifecta of things you love to see right before you unload on somebody, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's prone to interrupt. But I guess it'd be kind of sucky if you wasted your cleanse cooldown on dumb stuff just turning on protection too, so it's a give or take.Unless they changed it very recently that is... I haven't played Leadership in a few patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Za Shaloc.3908 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Hey dude, just wanted to say keep up the good work. You seemed to do pretty well from when I've seen you duel. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Set.7461 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 there's lots of great opening combos you can do but just to increase your current go-to, add enchanted daggers before you PT and burn all your energy by activating Impossible Odds before you legend swap to Glint.
