Revali's ability has been quite useful despite him being a cocky prat.

Yes! I'm glad I got it first before heading into zones with rain. It's very useful when it starts raining while you're climbing. Also very useful to get off little islands fast instead of swimming or jump gliding between ice blocks.

I'm not sure what the perfect block is for though. Why do a perfect block if you can just as easily do a jump dodge which gives you a flurry rush. Maybe I'm missing somehting yet it seems pretty pointless. Besides I ran out of shields fighting 2 Lynels, no more hiding, jump is the only defense. I'm having a weird streak not finding any shield bearing enemies and only weapons and arrows in chests.

Perfect block is very handy to deflect lasers back to the enemy. You can kill Guardians with it very easily, even if you have poor equipment.
