***DISCLAIMER*** this is not a topic to discuss revenge on its current state or how to fix it.
The purpose for this is to advise new and experienced players on ways to deal with the mechanics in its current state.
For starters let's make one thing clear: regardless of buffs if you are not hit no damage is taken.
While the gear despairity can be tough for new players; working as a group is critical. We need a call for rationality amongst players. Make parties, coordinate attacks, talk and interact.
99% of my matches no ones talking. This is the true flaw.
Don't engage someone with Revenge. That's my main tip.
I'm always amazed when I see people trying to take on a Revenge state guy, especially when it's 1 vs 1. They are still standing toe to toe with an enemy that now has unlimited stamina and increased attack and defence.
You can see the confidence boost when players gain Revenge. Suddenly they're coming for you swinging their axe like a maniac. You can also see the frustration when you just keep evading until it runs out and they go back to normal.
Don't hand them an advantage / easy kill.
