Maxing out Revive?

[Dazamo]

I would like everyone's thoughts on this. I have the 616 build with a couple points in some damage skills.

I am wasting points in pain I think. It appears to be pointless after 1 point. Wither also seems to not be worthwhile either. The bosses seem to not be affected by future pulses of the skill. They usually dodge them it looks like.

Since revive levels decrease the mana spent, and it has the hidden buff for regen I think it should be maxed out so it costs nothing to spend to spam it.

Any ideas or comments?

I don't think it is worth putting points into, unless you have your other seven skills maxed already.

Upgrading revive also increases its range :).

I wouldn't personally. Put two points into meditate for crowd control, and a couple into wither and pain. Revive has a reaaaaaly long cooldown just for a little buff.

After u maximize all your heals, put some in pain. It's actually quite good. Also don't waste more than 1 skill point on rev.

If you need me to share my build, I'll gladly show you it.

[Dazamo]

Thanks for the remarks everyone . I will readjust my skills to make then better. Javier, I would appreciate it.

[Cahaun]

Maximize your revive skill since the added range and less mana usage will make you feel better at sticky situations.

Does it really extend range?

[javier995]

Does it really extend range?

Yea, but not worth it IMO. I'll put up build later.

No problem bud.

pain is actually extremely important for the stun effect, I would keekathyat one. it will give u enough time to stun an enemy and kill (sniper or tanks in vol for example). Rez at level 6 will give u hidden buff of 2 mana regen, 2 damage, and 2 armor from a minute. also the range goes up. I have mine at 4 now and it only buffs stats 1, nit sure about lv 5. the range actually is helpful. I think I may leave mine at 4. when u ae stunned by a flash grenade and are just out of range and 2 in ur team are dead, that 1 or 2 increased radius can make all the difference in your party surviving. those tank guys also knock u back and kinda prevents u from moving for a second. if he attacks you continuously, u will be up against a wall unable to move until he is either killed or stunned. there are many instances Rez has been helpful for me bc of the incased range

[Anishavie]

Once the last skill is out and u max that skill (unless it is not good). U can start adding points to rev then when the level cap goes as high as pl right now then the only problem is mapping the skills

[Hellcurse]

it kinda depends on pve or pvp

[PianoWizzy]

Reading this made me realize that I only started using mana stimpacks AFTER I respec'd my skills [so long ago] to put rev at 2 [I max'd it before]. Hmm.

Ha. Looks like my tanking engineer's (thanks for not tanking coms, I took the matter to my eng) build.

[PianoWizzy]

Hmm, I like my protection though, and I use suppression in my mode of eng-tanking.

[akfury]

no point to max it 1 is enough use other 5 points in a dot or buff

[Ucazhaus]

Well it really depends on what your character does. For pvp only put 1 on it (ctf and so u arnt useless for pve) i like my attack skills high on my engi (Zeonaloz)

Here is how my engineer skills are like:

I use those skills for my K/D kills character.

I agree you should max out revive. It's a very important skill. Plus, it minimizes out complaints about "engineers going out of heal range". By maxing out revive and heal, that is how I earned my well known reputation as one of the best healers. As of wither and pain, add five points to pain since it is one of the two stuns you have. Ignore wither, its not one of the best, most enemies do not seem affected by it. Max out suppresion, too. It increases how many enemies get stunned. Very useful in every single map. And sonic boom? Add only one point to it, its very important because its one of the group attacks. And decay? Add four points. Of course, max out force shield and transference. Protection and Leech are especially useless. Protection doesn't give you protection. Also, its seems as if force shield is like that too, but you will notice that your life isn't going down if you use it. For a while only though.
All those I used and earned my rep as a good fighter and healer in town. I hope you become one too. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to post this, I hope everyone will find it useful.
Thanks.

I maxed-out Revive because if someone dies a little away from you and you're using your 2-skill-point Revive skill, and they're still yelling their lungs out: "REVIVE ME!"... well let's just say it gets on your nerves.

[Itoopeo]

Revive is good enough at lvl 4. And sonic boom is useless if you play other maps than shipyard too

[Drioyard]

revive at max should help u help ppl in a map when your teaming and they die far.so yeah :)
