Played a match on PowerPlant this morning. #1 Red was damn near untouchable. Now, I dont have a Revenant (although I’d love to try one) and I know they can be quite stout, but I dont understand how this guy survived the whole match in constant combat vs even closely-geared Blues many of whom seemed to be decent players while also racking up that score. He wasn’t even in the Indra all that long. Please make this make sense.

Skilled player or subtle hacker. Hacker overlays on pc are so easy to use anyone can do it. Unlimited health, see and ir shoot thru walls. Unlimited ammo....
Almost impossible to have a fair match. But hey enjoy the new rebalanced weapons. Lmao
Btw i dont think there is enough items for sale. Needs a couple dozen more purchase options... theyll sell u those Shutze you want at some point. Lol

There are so many subtle hacker tricks nowadays that I stopped trying to keep track.
My rule; If it feels like the player is cheating, then he prob is. Next game up

Thanks, folks. I suspected cheating, but didn’t want to automatically jump to that conclusion having not played a Revenant myself.

those are always suspect in my book. If I throw most of my bots at that thing in battle and nothing, its no longer suspect, its confirmed. 2 bot hangar and dominates that well?? SHOW ME, or i dont believe them. few and far between, but it happens, sorry Poopface

I'm starting to be aware of the smart hackers now. Today there was this Avalanche Behemoth, and he kept destroying all my bots in seconds, no matter what it was. MK3 Seraph, MK3 Khepri, barely taking damage and somehow hitting me through my absorber shield He killed a Luchador on our team in half a clip. I checked after the battle and he had three of them, so something was going on there. He'd obviously found a satisfying way to hack them and was now exploiting it. 「wee-wee」head.
Might have earnt 1st place on the team 4 million damage or so higher than everybody else, but he also earnt a report. Like that will do anything though.

Had the same thing last night with a revenant that just would take very little damage, even with high leveled opposition and rust rockets hitting it. I'm not sure if the rev is immune to the rust effect but regardless, it was taking heavy hits like a champ.
The Trixie Hope pilot muddies the water even further so you don't know if they are hitting advanced heal and getting extra defense every few seconds as well.
Another thing is the armadillo drone and durability extender/immune amp. I have had games in my mender where 4 bots are shooting at me and they just cannot take me out, sure must look suss but after a few kills and beacons, the defense can really stack up.

Oh yeah. Seen plenty of that stuff. Last stands that act like the old Last Stand when I shoot at them with maxed titan weps. Only to be insta killed by the same weps when my Last Stand is barely touched. Hacking....... you betcha.

If you have the explosive expert pilot skill, that allows you to “splash” damage through shields with avalanches. Kinda cool in a way. It did bring back those weapons. They were almost nonexistent in champ league till now.

I ran into two Behemoths this morning where they were hitting me at 525m. Unless lag was the culprit and objects ingame are actually closer than they appear, something was amiss. Either the nerf isn't in effect or they were cheating in some manner. I could totally see the former being the case since Seraphs were supposed to have been fixed and I'm still getting my Lokis getting hit while invisible and through walls/ceilings.

It's not like they have a decent track record of support or delivering on promises to correct issues.

My 2.4 Revenant has been pretty disappointing. Compared to all my other bots (at lower levels) it does not perform well at all. So yeah, I've been wondering about all the indestructible Revenants out there. I'm either missing something, or there is still a lot of cheating going on.

Revenant has always been a bit suspect with how it seems to shrug off tons of damage from multiple attacks enemies at once. Part of me wonders if it is just crazy luck because you theoretically could last crazy long if you do not run into too many Sonics and only engage while your ability is active. The ability does last deceptively long and does recharge fast, I think this does have merit. But given the current state of the game, I bet hacking has to do a lot with it too.
