I see roof gutters but no downspouts.

They are fairly simple to make using either a family or an in-place family, by creating a sweep.

Here's a parametric one with a formula to match the roof slope.

How do you do that?

In my decade of using Revit I've always thought the most overlooked feature in Revit was downspouts...or the lack of them. They took the time to create gutters, but not incorporate a simple downspout tool to support them. As others have mentioned, there are a lot of families available that you can load into your projects and use. But it's still odd (to me) that a downspout tool doesn't come standard in the software.
