Fun Greatsword Revenant Build

This build isn't meant to be ultra optimized and meta, Just a fun way to play the bean.

Relic 1: (Dark Night of the Fallen)

Increased Max HP

Continuous HP Recovery

Slowly Restore HP when HP is low

Since I plan on mixing it up in Melee, survivability is Key. More HP is always great, and I can stack HP regen with my second relic effect, which can help keep me at full hp for "Damage Negation at Full HP".

Relic 2:

Power up while fighting alongside family (HP recovery, 10% Damage Buff, 20% Defence Buff)

Physical Attack up +2

I was hard pressed trying to figure out how to maximize my damage, and I think this is the best in slot. I get a 16.5% damage bonus to all physical damage, which is substantial. I also get utility like HP regen and Damage negation (Not super useful, but it doesnt hurt to have more damage negation while reviving allies with the big guy).

Relic 3:

Trigger Ghostflame Explosion During Ultimate

Attack Power Increased for each night invader

Not much to say her, it's the mandatory night invader relic. I like that I rolled it with Revenants ghost flame effect, it lets her do solid damage with her Ult.

Relic 4: (God Roll?)

Improved Strength Reduced Faith

Dormant Power helps discover Greatswords

Increased HP

Honestly, insanely lucky roll. Imrpoved strength lets revenant actually deal respectable damage with the big swords. I need to find greatswords so dorman greatswords is mandatory. Increased Max HP is always great to see.

Relic 5: Comparison

Partial HP Restoration+1 vs. Partial HP + 2

Improved Holy Damage Negation vs. Improved Damage negation when knocked back

Increased Max HP vs. Improved affinity Damage negation

Im torn between 2 relics with this. But the main goal od this slot is survivability.

Relic 6:

Improved Vigor & Endurance, Reduced Mind

Physical attack up +4

A really strong roll for Revenant Stat adjustment.

Thats is the main build. I get 1185 HP, Respectable survivability & Damage, and I get the decent utility her summons provide (Reviving, Holding Aggro, HP regen, Bonus damage) I also have a greatsword builds for her that are built around spamming revenants Ult (To power up the team), or Using ashes of war (revenant has a healthy ammount of mind). Revenants solid mental stats means she gets really competitive damage vs. Wylder when running the greatswords that pack mental scaling.
