The herald invokes the [[Legendary Dragon Stance|legendary dragon]] [[Glint]], gaining abilities that allow them to channel restorative energies in order to bolster their allies.

[[Herald]] is an [[Specialization#Elite_specializations|elite specialization]] for the [[revenant]] unlocked with the [[Heart of Thorns]] [[expansion]]. Heralds have learned to commune with [[Glint]], a benevolent dragon that sought to end the destruction of the [[Elder Dragon]]s, but died trying. They gain access to the [[Legendary Dragon Stance]], where they use [[Facet]] skills to provide [[boon]]s to nearby allies. They can wield [[shield]]s in their [[off hand]], a defensive weapon to block attacks and heal allies. Heralds are naturally supportive and excel at providing boons to their allies.<br />

{{Quotation|Glint|Behold! Dragon and hero together!}}<br />
Heralds can choose to channel the [[Legendary Dragon Stance]] and gain access to the [[Facet]] [[skill#Skill types|skill type]], functionally resembling [[Signet]] skills of other [[profession]]s. Once activated, a Facet has an [[Energy#Upkeep|Energy upkeep]] cost and continuously provides benefits to allies in an area. An active Facet also provides access to a secondary [[Consume]] skill which can be used for single powerful effect. [[Facet of Nature]], a profession mechanic skill replacing [[Ancient Echo]], provides different supporting effects to allies based on the currently channeled [[Legend]].<br />

{{Quotation|Herald release notes|The herald brings access to the legendary dragon Glint into the revenant profession. Equipping the herald elite specialization will allow the revenant to equip the shield weapon and Legendary Dragon Stance skills. Legendary Dragon Stance skills utilize the energy upkeep mechanic for revenant, such that all of them have an upkeep part of the skill that provides benefits to allies in an area. All Legendary Dragon Stance skills also have an active part that utilizes facets of the dragon to perform devastating attacks.}}<br />
Heralds are revenants who can channel from [[the Mists]] the echo<ref>[https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/lore/Lore-Q-A/page/1#post6173721 Post by Scott McGough] in "Lore Q&A", Old Guild Wars 2 Forums (Archived)</ref> of the dragon [[Prophecy|prophet]] [[Glint]], a friend of mortal races who also compiled the [[Flameseeker Verse|Flameseeker Prophecies]], foretelling [[Timeline|major events]] in the world. Glint was a protector of [[Tyria (world)|Tyria]] and a herald worth heeding, and revenants are able to channel her power and essence to aid their allies.<ref>[https://heartofthorns.guildwars2.com/game/specializations Guild wars 2: Heart of Thorns Specializations], Guildwars2.com</ref> Drawing from Glint's legacy, heralds also utilize facets similar to the ones that guarded [[Glint's Lair|her lair]].<ref>[https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/meet-the-herald-revenants-elite-specialization/ Meet the Herald: Revenant’s Elite Specialization], Guildwars2.com</ref><br />
