Usage

General

Ventari

• This legend has a unique mechanic, the tablet.

• Project Tranquility summons Ventari's tablet which you get to move around freely with its chain skill Ventari's Will.

• The other 4 skills all trigger around the tablet, so you must chase allies with it constantly.

• The first time you project the tablet into the battlefield your next Ventari skill becomes empowered.
  • To regain this empowerment buff you must destroy the tablet and resummon it, either with Energy Expulsion or by moving more than 1.5k range away from the tablet.

• The primary healing skill here is Natural Harmony. Very simple stuff, just a big AoE heal on a relatively low cost and low recharge.
  • Empowered: heals more and grants endurance.

• Purifying Essence is the main condi cleansing tool on this and heals for a decent amount after each condition removed. If an ally's heavily pressured by conditions prioritize this skill over Natural Harmony.
  • Empowered: removes more conditions.

• Protective Solace is a rather situational skill. It's an anti-projectile dome you can move around and maintain for extended periods of time, also servves as a Light field for condi cleansing combos. This is a proactive skill rather than reactive, preventing ranged enemy specs like Deadeyes from harming your team if you can activate it in time. If your energy allows it you can shield your team from incoming damage by maintaining the bubble while healing them up with other skills, but don't maintain it when it isn't necessary.
  • Empowered: grants Protection, further playing into the damage mitigation role.

• The elite Energy Expulsion is sort of a jack-of-all-trades skill, it does a bit of everything (healing, cleansing, knockdown, boon application, etc.) but the 2 most notable characteristics are the CC and the tablet reset. As an AoE CC skill this offers another form of mitigation, allowing you to sabotage enemy burst attempts and allow your team to escape. Using this skill also destroys the tablet which you should immediately resummon, doing so will once again empower the next skill you use.
  • Empowered: grants Stability which is quite important on this legend as Ventari is extremely susceptible to CC.

• Ventari is the only Revenant legend which doesn't have a stunbreak, but at least all of its skills can be used while stunned. If you're afraid of getting CC chained to death you could open with Energy Expulsion right after swapping to Ventari from Alliance stance in which case this skill will be empowered and give you and your allies some much needed Stability. Even if you don't open with this and get caught in a CC this skill is still useful, as you can CC enemies right back by blowing up the tablet.

Condition Cleansing

• Dodging removes 1 condition from yourself and allies.

• Staff's Renewing Wave cleanses 2. This is also a Blast finisher and can be combo'd with Protective Solace for more AoE cleansing.

• Ventari has Purifying Essence which is instant and heals for each condition it removes.

• Saint Viktor's Tree Song works much like Purifying Essence but with a cast time.

• The Ventari elite Energy Expulsion also offers some cleansing and as a Blast finisher it can be combo'd with Purifying Essence just like Renewing Wave, but it has a delay and this combo cleanses fewer conditions than Purifying Essence while costing more energy. View it as more of a bonus, and resort to Purifying Essence as your go-to.
