Revenge is a threshold Defence ability that requires level 15 Defence and a shield to use. When activated, any attacks the user receives increase the user's own damage dealt by 5%, up to a maximum of 50% with ten stacks. This ability lasts 19.2 seconds. Blocked and missed attacks do add Revenge stacks, as do hits blocked by Barricade. Removing the shield while Revenge is still active removes all stacks immediately. Hard typeless hits do not add Revenge stacks.

Revenge has a unique buff icon: the icon's upper half shows Revenge's remaining time active in seconds, and the lower half shows the player's current number of Revenge stacks, which are enclosed in parenthesis. Revenge increases damage by only 2.5% per stack if activated with a defender.

If Revenge is used with Raids armour and a defensive reset occurs and Revenge is activated again before the duration of the first has ended, the stacks are all reset to zero.
