    Any plans to deal with insane Revenge builds?

    I've noticed revenge is just a bit over powered. Players typically build into revenge the entire time. Does anyone know if there are any plans to nerf it/remove it from some game modes?

    that is what I was wondering, once you hit level 7+ items they all give a crazy amount of revenge. people just block till the meters full uses, it up repeat.

    it really makes it pointless to attack people who revenge 2-3 times in 1 vs 1 turning this game more into an arcade fighter then medieval fighting.

    Why nerf something that is so terribly easy to counter?

    You can spam revenge, you know that right? Players just defend until they have revenge, then engage.

    Dont gank 2/3 vs 1 or dont feed him.
    Use more stunts, gb and bashes.
    And if you cant avoid to feed him, stay away until vengeance is over.

    I dont ser major problemas dealing with IT, in fact I like it because give you a chance for a honorable death while being ganked by 2 or 3.

    Simply put, if you're struggling with people using revenge builds, you're probably not on their same level...which is understandable, some people have FAR more time to play,

    I'm only Rep 1, and i've noticed most people I get matched with in Dominion vs players are going revenge builds.

    Y'know what I do? Back up and drop a catapult on them.

    Then I lolz.

    The revenge build guys are the same ones that parry fish and play defensive meta. Use offensive feats on them.

    You know that feats do NOT get affected by damage reduction from gear right?

    Everyone has the same opportunities in this game. People complaining about imbalance from a gear/xp/steel perspective are just cry-babies that want to be max level/max gear with little to no effort and are super salty/jelly that others got their first.

    Play against AI until you're strong enough to compete evenly if it's that big of a deal to you.

    This is just silly. You build revenge in 1v1's too you know. I have a rep 6 char at 108 gear and a rep 1 char. Guess which one let's me get revenge super easy and 2 shot people?

    So when I'm fighting some poor undergeared sap 1v1, I'm usually guaranteed the win.

    Plus it shouldn't be a DISADVANTAGE to outrotate your enemy and help 2v1. Revenge is a tool to give you a CHANSE in those situations, but not the advantage.

    The concept is fine, it just pops too easy and too often. Devs are aware, they said as much in a stream.

    Lol, by the time you got enough renown for offensive lvl 3 or 4 feats, my team is up 900 to 300 cause we've owned you up to that point. And we got our feats faster than you because we've been dominating.

    Then boom, game over man, game over.

    I have fought all manner of revenge build characters. There are very, very few things in this game that are new to me at this point. People cannot spam revenge mode if you don't give it to them. Stop feeding them.

    they said in the live stream that they are aware of the gear problem, especially Revenge, they do plan to fix it, though they are going to tweak the stats first. so unfortunately revenge will still build in a 1on1. but hopefully by adjusting the stats it wont be as bad, they said adjusting the stats does not work they will look for other solutions.
