When making the ravana, they learned from the mistakes of things like leech an ao jun. You can compete with a mediocre leech or jun because leveling up only really gives you HP, something which isnt too useful to those bots. Ravana though needs the upgrading. meta is more expensive now.

i count to 3, then shoot. then they activate their ability again. And again.... and again and phase shift......twice! All this on a bot with more health than a Leo or Behemoth, just stupid lazy.

Ravana....lazy bot? Really? Cause dude, I am really burning those calories pushing that ability button. It is quite the workout. I think I am offended by this post. Not sure yet. Will get back to you on that. First I got a ton of ability button pushing to do. This. It is boring to fight against, but by no means, a lazy bot to play with.it needs one's focus and involment all the time. A hydra build is lazy. The ravana is kind of fun to play with: all that dashing and active playstyle. It is not as fun being in the receiving side though. The ability is stupid for a shooting game, but the PS was in the game even before the ravana, and still is. Compared to Ares and Ao Jun in their zenith,this bot is a fair opponent.

That being said, I run one for area control, beacon capture late game. It can outplay titans and lokis. I am having much more fun playing with blitz and Nightingale. I also had tons of fun stomping on reds with my Mercury or going berserk with my mender; they are not just as viable in the current meta with titans.

At least it isn’t as OP as ao juns or ares in their prime It is actually more OP than both, it just doesn't have a flashy cool ability to make it evident. But with Legendary Pilot and Foolhardy quartermaster+Phase Shift and you got a bot that runs at 125 km, allowing it to bypass every shield, and has the highest HP's out of any bot in the game. An unstoppable tank that can guarantee point blank max dmg and avoid anything you throw at it is worse than a supercharged glass canon.

An unstoppable tank that can guarantee point blank max dmg and avoid anything you throw at it is worse than a supercharged glass canon. Pretty much this. Ravana-specific counter-play is basically hold your fire till transcendence expires. Removing the ability to beacon-cap while transcendent is a step in the right direction. but the real problem is Ravana doesn't sacrifice much for its transcendence ability. It sits in the same niche as a Haechi or Carnage, but has more health, is faster, and can use its abilities more frequently. Transcendence should have been capped at 2 charges, and it shouldn't be able to equip Phase Shift at all. Even then, its still be more mobile than most other medium/heavy bots while being able to eat an alpha and save a charge for emergencies.

Exactly the only tactic is outlast, but the Ravana has more hps than every other bot, so lol.

transcendence and phase shift have an innate mechanical error. you can shoot coming out of ability, but others can't or don't. because of either lag or graphical error.
This built in exploit is what everyone uses. shift out, shoot before your target can react, shift out again. that's the main ability here, not the invulnerability, the repeat 1st strike capability.

Even without the lag it is still the fastest bot and highest hp tank in the game. That can also go invulnerable to avoid every other bots ability. Fixing the lag is not gonna change its super op lvl one bit. Its inherit design coupled with its insane durability is the problem. It is the first bot with no weaknesses and wins in both hp and speed over every other bot.

There is no cute anecdotes that will change the fact that you can't give a bot the highest hps and highest speed without it being super op.

Bot’s a total piece of crap, even with Poe. All it does is run around like the flaming bag of crap that it is and hope to tie up 1 it 2 reds in the process. My lvl 8 storms are next to useless, I don’t think they’d kill a lvl w Cossack, and both bit and guns are about to get nerfed even deeper into worthlessness. I neither have the resources nor play enough to get them to level it up any higher as it is. So I sold both. Now I have enough silver to finish off a Blitz in WS even if I don’t play another garbage game or watch another godforsaken ad. Why, I do not know - I’m probably gonna quit the game again, this time for good, once the Blitz is done. Bot at least I’m rid of this flaming turd now.

This. Fix the ability to fire while appearing to be in trans or PS and the bot is just a bot that runs around not doing anything as an ability.
