Usage

This build is very simple to use. While in Shiro, use Impossible Odds while auto-attacking and using Chilling Isolation and Shackling Wave. While in Jalis, use Forced Engagement to CC mobs and reduce your damage taken and using the same attacks.


Damage

  • Sword: Auto attack while using Chilling Isolation and Shackling Wave
  • Hammer: Auto attack and use Hammer 2 off cooldown.
  • In Shiro, use Impossible Odds
    • Legend swap off cooldown to maximize your energy usage.


Defense

  • Always dodge and sidestep attacks where possible. Your actual defensive skills cost energy, so manage them carefully and predict when you need to avoid attacks in advance.
  • You can use Unrelenting Assault or Riposting Shadows as an evade.
  • Warding Rift blocks attacks.
  • Swapping legends will break stun thanks to Empty Vessel.
  • Forced Engagement provides very high damage reduction.


Sustain

  • If you're in trouble just Rite of the Great Dwarf.
  • Dance of Death heals quite a lot


Crowd Control

  • Surge of the Mists
  • Shackling Wave
  • Chaotic Release
  • Jade Winds
  • Forced Engagement

A decent starter build for revenant; it's not capable of competing with the more powerful condi renegade or power bombardment build but can hold its own for leveling purposes.
