17 hours left
I just built a Raven. I still need another hussar and marquess, but I can see its power already. Having 600M range with 100% accuracy and the 20% damage boost is really strong. Potentially the best MR bot in the game...

LOL, where the percentages are made up and the discounts don't matter.
I've got two Ravens (in fact, the last one I snapped up was this exact deal) and I'm contemplating getting a third but I really don't need it.

If the offer included tarans and mags, it would be a done deal

I have a raven on my old (unplayable) account. Bought it because i loved griffs and rogs back in the day. I was still rocking a griff well into late dash era, think i gave up when spec was top dog.
Certainly in the ao jun meta era it was no great shakes. i used it out of stubborness for quite a while and eventually gave up. unless something has changed i'd save your cash!

I have a Raven, is it worth it to get this one with the paintjob for 5$? The collector in me is also kind of wanting it.

Typically I don't even buy $5 deals but I like the Raven ever since that skirmish a couple months ago. The updates gave the hussar/marquess build a serious boost.

The thing that separates Raven from Spectre is that Raven can jump more frequently, and it gets 20% extra damage. I haven't run the numbers yet, but I'd venture to guess the Raven can do more peak cycle damage. even though it's 2L vs 2M. The jump is especially good for balancing range at 600M, and also just being useful grabbing beacons. lv8 cycle marquess: 21659 hussar: 28072 so spectre does 112k raven does 56k+ 43k = 99k x 1.2 = ~120k (during ability, which lasts throughout the cycle period) so I guessed right

Don’t take this deal. It’s a no hope bot. Particularly don’t think outside the meta box. There is nooo way this bot with no stealth, no invulnerability, and no purple power could make a difference in champion league play. Follow the herd I say. Follow the herd. Play it safe.

Play it safe. look at the numbers I just posted. The build is doing over 100k per cycle from 600M - at a very conservative level 8 with pilot skills, modules and deathmark, maxed out mk2, it approaches 300k per cycle - definitely not weak, actually scary powerful

Figure I’d share this epic moment here. So we were fighting a tough clan v clan battle in Dead City. We were down beacons and reds were pushing hard congregating at Center and near our home, so Adrian leaps in Raven to their home bridge, then double jumps behind their backs all the way over to their right beacon too.This turned the match around for sure!

Scourge spark is pretty sweet on the raven with 20% jump boost

Raven *is* kinda META (one of the most effective bots at what it does, anyway).
Raven and Mender are the only older bots I kept in my anti-addiction bleeding edge hangar (of Leeches, Ao Juns, Phantoms, Fenrirs and Behemoths - even the Areses and other Pantheon bots were junked) - I can only afford to upgrade so much.
It's in Adrian Chong's main hangar as his beacon capper. Manni used it as his i'll-kill-you-anywhere-you-are assassin. I personally loved the moment I first got it and pulled off a double jump with it right into the centre of Yamantau, wondering if I should record it, and wondering if anyone had done it yet.
I also think the Arballista Raven is one of the best sniper types, able to perch on the highest places of the map and hit people at odd angles.
I was going to pass as I already have one, and I'm trying to deal with my addictions, but... after seeing this thread, I myself bought a second one.
(Got an idea for 1 Sniper Raven and 1 Cryo Death Button Raven... or even an ECU capper.)
Thank you!

So good.
Cossack is also good for practicing jumps / walking on fences.

All I know is that the best raven I played against was the guy who jumped on top my Fenrir bot (did not see him coming)and I could not shake nor target him him while getting he was blasting away with MK2 Ignite/Rime. I still don't know how he was able to stay on.
I tip my hat to that Raven guy!!!

By the way, to anyone who bought this yesterday and is getting smoked today...they're pretty fragile until you start leveling them up.

They have 149,400 armor, 50 km/h speed and two passive module slots at Level 9, instead of 93,700 and 40 km/h speed at Level 1. I'm still finding Phantoms can get inside centre beacon at Yamantau and Canyon before I can turn it blue, and it's not easy to fight off high level last stand Phantoms alone when I'm the only blue there. How nice of Pix to make them yellow so everyone can skeet shoot the big flying bag of silver. I used to take the skin off in hopes I would survive longer. It is a pretty one, though.
