    • Mist Swing: Reduced the maximum number of targets from 5 to 3.
    • Mist Slash: Reduced the maximum number of targets from 5 to 3.
    • Arcing Mists: Reduced the maximum number of targets from 5 to 3.

    Apparently Revenant GS needed another nerf … for Halloween (Labyrinth)? A once powerful weapon has turned into a wet noodle and finally got the target cap reduced, too. Well, it was fun while it lasted, but we are not supposed to have fun in the game, right?

      Too bad, I loved the GS Rev. It became my second main ( after thief :). I switched to sword+sword last patch so it’s not that bad, but I miss the GS aesthetics.

      PS: Shortbow thief works great in the lab.

        I probably go Reaper like I used to before EoD. But I still have fond memories from last year, where I was going ham in the labyrinth on my GS-Vindicator. Good times!

        Unstoppable Flamethrower/Juggernaut (with a Sigil and Relic of Speed) works, too.

        Before secrets was released I was curious how weapon mastery may give power alacrigade another melee option over sword, but the nerfs to gs dont look too hot.

          Well, they found GS to be too strong on non-Vindicator, nerfed it to the ground and buffed some Vindicator traits instead, e. g. damage increase after dodge. I’m getting tired of this messing around for the sake of “balance”.

            Was non vindicator GS even remotely meta? Power renegade fell out of favor and i think Quickness Herald used S/S
