the ult and weaknesses makes revenant a stronger character than recluse on most bosses I'd say
adel was the exception
yes you technically have the same faith scaling on recluse but you have to fight an uphill battle to acquire incantations and it comes at the cost of your sorceries, you're pretty much just playing scuffed and weaker revenant
concoction is unreliable, the fp advantage recluse has is not that notable to good teams because they just pool starlights or revenant goes on a sidequest to get some shards
sure you can buff revenant summons because they are mostly distractions on the nightlord I suppose, but they're already pretty busted outside the nightlord utilized well so tread carefully
seriously she is already really good, because she regularly sees incants you get stuff like golden vow, the 60% negation, bfp, and heals regularly too, then she's just tanky too
but yes recluse can technically get 5% more damage than revenant for 15 seconds everything else equal when we're talking personal dps
