No, just nerf it. If it did not give a damage boost it might seem more balanced. Remove its damage buff, and how quickly it can be accumulated, or how it accumulates. It is a very useful tool in this game, however. If not for revenge mode, people would leave because of gankers.

Honestly the issue is not only how fast revenge accumulates, especially in 1v1 situations, but also the amount of an advantage it gives someone.
The point of revenge was to even the odds in an outnumbered fight by giving someone extra health, damage, and the potential for a knockdown. What it ended up giving us was a mechanic that was barely useful in an outnumbered situation (See Guard Break spamming or shield charging) and essentially an instant-win button in a 1v1, making characters who have feats that give revenge on attacks (see Assassins) and who happen to have high level gear an extreme advantage, especially in a 1v1 situation.
Either severely reduce the damage boost or remove it entirely, keep the knockdown (or make it a knock back, like a shove that drains stamina to prevent continued attack), keep the bonus health. It's meant to be a defensive option when you're outnumbered, not a tool to exploit in 1v1s when your gear is super high level and you gain revenge in 4 attacks, blocked or otherwise.

They're never going to remove it.
You do realise how much of their game design revolves around it?
Think of how many bits of gear have Revenge Mode stats on ...
They clearly intended you to build entire characters around what happens in Revenge Mode.
It has more focus on it than the rest of your characters attributes put together.
They might nerf it a bit, but it's definitely their core mechanic and they built the game around it.

Gray , yes i know what you mean and that sux. Otherwise i have read some opinions here and true, then could atleast nerf it. Less accumulate no attack boost , half of def boost. Its so annoying when you are playing with stupid ppl from your team that spam attack even thou that enemy killed them 34654678 because of revenge mode. I hope they will changed something in this matter. ^^

Sooooo...what is your solution to when you inevitably get ganged up on by two or more? Just die?Originally Posted by DoggebiLord Go to original post

Revenge has some work that needs to be done, but it does have uses. I think though that something should be done against ganging up on people, besides giving revenge. Revenge can help some, but if a whole team corners you that's it. I think they should receive less of a point value if the gang up on you. I understand that you get honorable bonuses, but it is rare that you even get a "fair" fight.

Sadly, your score isn't even recorded anywhere, so people wouldn't care. They'd only care about the miniscule boost to their Win/Loss record or their K/D/A ratios. Your score literally doesn't matter for anything but like, 50 experience points per game. You could have a score of 0 and still get 85-90% of the experience you would have if you had a score of 500.Originally Posted by WonsaToosa Go to original post
This is also why AFK farmers are a thing, even though against bots you get reduced experience. There's no real benefit to doing well in the game as opposed to just playing it. Experience is a time sink.
