Revenant Builds:

You can use Intensify or the Augur Secrets if you are creating a Revenant build that is more dependent on abilities. Intensify will increase the ability strength whereas, Augur Secrets will keep adding to the shields as well.

Transient Fortitude can also be used for this purpose, but it reduces the ability duration. If you do not care for ability duration then Fleeting Expertise can also be a god choice.

Using Primed Continuity or Continuity will compensate the loss of duration done by Transient Fortitude or Fleeting Exercise, but it will be more effective if used along with Augur Secrets or Intensify.

Revenant Build – Umbral Revnant

The Umbral Revenant build is the most commonly used Revenant build. This build is high on shield and armor but relatively low on duration and efficiency. So, the most important mods that can be used here are the Vitality and Intensify mods that will be providing reasonable control over the efficiency and duration. The Streamline and Natural Talent mods are also equally important for improving the casting speed and efficiency.

There is no need for a survivability mod because each mod almost gives you boosted speed, strength, and efficiency. However, still, if you think that you need the survivability mod, then you can switch to the Umbral Vitality mod.

Revenant Build – Damage Immunity

The Fleeting expertise is one of the most essential mods in this build as it will be providing your ability efficiently. Still, along with that, you will have to use the Primed continuity mod that will be providing you the increased duration.

The other essential mods that can be used are the Rolling Guard and Augur Message. These mods have the capability to remove the status effect, and, they can boost your ability duration in less than three seconds.

Since the critical point in this build is the ability range and so you will have to switch to those mods that will provide you good ability range radar. Transient Fortitude can help you with this, and so you can survive throughout the build.
