Look at this. There's nothing tactical about lumber, blink, shoot until you die. 14 million damage of Cetacean silliness.

It is total stupidity. Nothing tactical about them. The other day me and two players where laying it on one and barely were scratching it. Can someone explain to me how that is fun? And the ability to heal back unrepairable damage? Seriously! Why?
Like I said in my Bully thread. I coulda built a Rev. But why? So I can stand there while you do nothing about it?
I thought at first they were balanced..... I was wrong.
Still hate the Ares meta the most. Lol Been at this long enough that I got counters to most stuff.

This is why I'm not going to bother leveling my Revenant. I won 3 of them (1 is the Retro)
Because I have 3, this is a sure sign they're going to get nerfed pretty soon. Pixonic never gives away free stuff unless it's a trick.

I am waiting for a YTer to show me a 10 milly + score using all different bots. I have always been a advocate of randomness. Even though I have multiple Revs and Fafs, running the same bot is boring and never my cup of tea. Running multiple bots makes you have to be a better player because each bot is different and requires a different approach and skill set. I want to run a Erebus so bad, but i never last long with 5 Fafs flying constantly with that Legendary Pilot.

I have seen 5 blues attacking a maxed out Rev and doing little damage. My Ao Jun was one of those using 1.11 Hels and Dragon Breath which does a LOT of damage to most bots. It is just over the top stupidity.

Wow that looks like a boring party of revs there. I won 2 revs only ran one for the last ops. Has to be leveled more as I have the sploog weps for it and they have to be leveled up too. As ismsean said running the same bots would bore me as well. Glad I am in E1 and not champs.

underwhelmed by my Rev’s performance so far: it doesn’t do nearly enough damage to compensate for how fast it dies (only L7 so far, w/ L8 Bane + L6 Toxins). Does somewhat better with Ember/Blaze

I agree with original post , I see some good S Clan players running these with fearsome drones ( lol ) and wonder other than competition between themselves for high damage what enjoyment are they getting ? Then at times in TDM I see their clan mates supporting them from afar with Prisma weapons, looking like my TDM days but few left .

Does somewhat better with Ember/Blaze It is the Legendary Pilot pilot and the correct skills with drone that make them last. I mix acid and flames for mine. Seems my ember one does a lil better than my bane one. Also, run nuc amp with either 2x BUs or HAKs. Dont worry bout Last Stand on tanks. |

For me at least, they die somewhat quickly when their ability ends if they are ganged up on, plus they are slow. But yeah, 1v1 they are indestructible.

This ganging up on is what I’m seeing happening , Blues are leaving other locations and coming to jump in on the gang up . Going belly to belly on a ganging puts a fast hurt on the Rev . |

Currently the strongest counter to revenants are Devastator Orochis in my experience. Properly kitted out with nuclear amplifiers, a Beak drone with 2x revitalizing itensifiers for +70% damage they can do immense damage very quick. If they time it right and pounce once my Revenant ability ends they can sometimes kill me outright because I can't teleport to a stealthed bot even though I have deft survivor, so no chance of healing back grey damage.

That was constructive, thanks. :-) |

Which Legendary Pilot do y’all prefer? I have both, but have been running Midea as pilot (on the Rev I *do* run)…I agree, Ember seems more effective than Bane @same level…no BU, only 1 Heavy Armor Kit…and I NEVER run Last Stand on anything

Agreed. Over tanky bots and crazy abilities seem to be the new norm with War Robots. Honestly, I think this stems from the designers who only design and don't really play the game like one of us and see what we are seeing first hand. My guess is they test stuff at level 8 like the test server so they don't see how overpowering things are once its MKii plus. I miss the days when skill mattered more then gear levels. To me, if it takes half of a team to kill one red bot, there is a serious imbalance.
