I bought a second Freeform slot, because of the sale, so I decided to try Quasar again. I just have a few questions: How much support would she need to tank Kenina? How good is the energy return on Wind Reverb? And, most importantly, why do the devs hate Crushing Wave?

    If you know when to block? None. Majority of times Kenina just stands around. She only has two heavy attacks worth note: one is the telegraphed fireball, the other is a vengeance-like move she takes about 4-sec to cast- but that one has no indicator. Block both of those when they happen and you should be fine w/o needing outside heals.
    How good is the energy return on Wind Reverb?
    Its okay. Its not as good as Int + MSA, due to the ICD on procs, but its not too bad. You'll have to get used to tapping Crushing Wave every 4-5 secs if you want good returns from it for this build.
    And, most importantly, why do the devs hate Crushing Wave?
    Eh, it and numerous other powers under-perform. It gets a bit of a bad rap because of its 1 sec tick time. Its actual dps isn't much better or worse than any other 45d cone attack- which all tend to be low dps (sans Skarn's).
