It'll be interesting to see how the new energy system will work out. Finally we have something other than initiative from Thief and CD-based playstyle.
Having been a fan since the first Guild Wars game, I am extremely excited for the release of Heart of Thorns! What I am looking forward to most is the new Revenant class because they can harness the powers of previous legends; legends that were in the first Guild Wars! It wasn't until the second season of Living Story in Guild Wars 2 that I learned that Oden, a dwarf, was still alive! How I missed having him in my party as a monk! To be able to use dwarfen abilities as a Revenant will be a blast, literally. I already saved up some exp boosts and have a name in mind when the expansion is released for I will be sure to create a Revenant!
The thing I was most hyped about were the hammer skills, and they turned out great. I also liked the Jalis legend, especially the stability path utility skill and the elite skill, which could be used as a clutch prevention for your team's wipe.
But the single most awesome thing I've heard was that the closed beta is near! Although I doubt I'd somehow get into it, there is still this hope and hype that I've had back when GW2 was announced.
I can't wait for the reveal of the other weapons and legends, especially since someone mentioned the speculation that the legend associated to dual wielding swords could be Shiro Tagachi's.
They gotta work on that hammer autoattack animation. The skills seem cool though: though like Necro, it seems vulnerable to having an allied Guardian using Save Yourselves + Contemplation of Purity on that condition focused mode.
I am looking forward to seeing how effect the mace auto attack actually is. The torment and poison stacks can be quite useful. Also a well timed triple blast finisher can really aid group fights.
I just watched the video . Currently revenant is a little bit op ,but some skills are balanced seemed right now. As I have played dk in wow since 2008, I hope that anet can balance this class since the release day. Don't let th class op initially but got infinity nerf all the time in the future.
That there is a new class and more skills and an actual expansion! Everything is is just gravy on top. The game is brilliant as is; anything else new class/skills/content/expansion is just the custard to go with the cake already bein served. So there no need to say which is my favourite aspect if the new class.
The best things about the new revenant class to me are the new profession mechanics, new stance skills and most of all the legends that come with it... it's hard to make a choice really cause all the upcoming changes that comes with the expansion look to be exciting.
The thought of having a new, original class on it's own is exciting, but reading up on the mechanics and how the Revenant connects to the Mists, bringing the power of Legends from the lore of GW1 is an excellent prospect to look forward to. Especially since I, among others, were wondering if they were ever going to bring the lore of GW1 closer to GW2. I can't wait!
I have just gotten back to playing GW2 after being in the beta and then playing the game for about a year. I am having a blast again and can't wait to play the Revanant. It really sounds like fun to be a heavy armor class with a big Hammer! I think i will make the smallest Asura possible to look even cooler :P
I think the Revenant will be interesting as far as AoE skills but hopefully A.Net will not make the same mistakes they made in GW1, when they added in professions. I am looking forward to trying the Revenant.
I think Revenant will be great. Anything that harks back yo the lore is good with me plus it fills all the gaps in the current meta in that we needed another heavy armor profession. I hope it's well-balanced and fun to play.
I think this class sort of dervish look-a-like from GuildWars 1,which I find very very interesting since I loved it.Hope Anet would achive what other companies didnt,and actually exceed our excpectation with this class and with this xpac,cant wait to play my druid too
What I love about the Revenant is the Legandaries. Been keeping up with all the latest news and looking forward to play it when it releases, My favorite Langendary that I will using most is Demon Stance with Hammer as Primary weapon. Looking forward to this Expanson.
I will be enjoying the Revenant a lot and other stuff that's coming to HoT.
I'm really excited about the Revenant's new energy system. I think it'll open up a lot of variety in build and playstyle, and the number of different legends you can channel just widens those possibilities. Also they look really badass.
