Lol. Too bad you don't play on xbox or I'd take the opportunity to absolutely school you.

Nice auto-aim buddy

So many butt-hurt people trying to sass each other over a gun most people don't use haha it's entertaining how grouchy people get over someone liking a seldom-appreciated weapon.

Btw OP your builds are pretty cool, never thought of using a rev on a geth. Makes sense though, accuracy can get super close to 100%. I'll try it out good thread

Yes.  Also, don't try to snipe with an LMG.  That's what your team's sniper does. 

I know, I know.  It's a hard word.  Try it, though.

T-E-A-M.

Team.

There, see?

Revenant tips in the legion effect


Since i keep getting asked how i can do all that with a revenant, did i decide to watch myself more closely, how i actually do use it and what might others be not considering

To me this gun comes natural, actually i got no real clue what i am doing besides "taking aim and open fire", but i discovered a few things

1.
Do not aim with the center crosshair, instead with the bullets trace, slightly to the upper
left of the center of the crosshair they will go

2.
Aim for the neck to get repeated headshots, you wont get many headshot medals,
but you will dish out more damage as many bullets will hit their face/critical spot

3.
Spec your builds around it, my gi for example is specced for hm with accuracy rof and damage

4.
Learn to control the recoil, for me it is a subconscious act as i played quake2 alot with the ar and chaingun and this is still in me (damn im old )

Mastering the recoil makes it a formidable weapon and medium ranges, for geth and turian marksman with accuracy even at long

I suggest to learn using it and its reload times and when and how to cancel them with the turian soldier at first

Just a few things i noticed, they might not be the key, but they could help

Right, you are saying our problem is bad aim when you can't even top the scoreboard in a game full of terrible players, ok, that makes sense.

Breathe, dude.  It's just the internet.  Also, read what I wrote more carefully, then ask how you know with whom I play.  You never learn anything if you know everything.

I don't snipe with it, I lay down COVERING FIRE LIKE IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE USED!!! I'm a "TEAM" player anyways.

[RomanowRomanow]

we did geth farming run with four turian sentinels rocking revenants it was awesome

[Transairion]

Whoa, calm down people. We can all agree the Revenant isn't nearly as good as it was (see the wiki, it was nerfed pretty bad), but it is still usable... it's just not good enough anymore to actually be superior to everything similar to it. That or the Hurricane is super-special-awesome. Whatever I don't have a Hurricane yet

[jobotdestroy]

I notice not alot of people here don't understand how to use a weapons like this. It's very similar to a m249 the US Military use's (or any other machine gun at that) You don't hold the trigger down and be surprised you can't hit anything with it. It's a support fire weapon. Designed to be fired is controlled bursts to suppress the enemy. This is done so the enemy will hide behind cover and the riflemen maneuver to flank. I personally like this weapon alot for the decent rof and ammo capacity. I use it with stability dampner (think bipod) and either extended barrel or ammo capacity. They don't need to do a damn thing to this weapon its perfect how it is. Close to how a real MG is.

I got laughed at for bringing into gold.

Got kicked for it, in fact. Yeah, terrible gun.

This^^ like I said it's good for covering fire.

Given the flack coming from the console players this makes we wonder if we are not encountering a fundamental difference between Mouse and Controller. It is a solid fact that you get more fine control out of a shooter using a mouse then with the little joystick nubs. On the PC this allows for that fine aim adjustment needed to make bucking weapons like the Revenant actually work (easier to correct for drift)

I'm on the PC as well and have not had many issues with the Rev when I take out from time to time.

I said I used it on a Turian Soldier and it's amazing.

See, this is exactly the kind of comment that makes me say it's terribly overrated.  No, it isn't amazing on a Turian Soldier.  This is what it looks like on a Turian Soldier:  www.youtube.com/watch

Turian's passive stability bonuses help, fitting the stability mod actually sinks the recoil if you fully spec the damage+stability bonus passives.

And treat the Rev like an LMG you have to setup. It's tedious but it works.

I love the revenant with my (admittedly somewhat small) heart. No, I'm not going to bring it on gold. It's just too heavy for the damage it does. I can hold, esp. on my turian soldier, the crosshairs to the upper torso and head of an enemy at an acceptable distance, but that's just not good enough for gold, at least at my skill level.

[GGW KillerTiger]

Revenant is a great weapon if you learn to use it. the ones that say it suck just aren't versatile.

If something requires a special setup, it needs a sufficient payoff to compensate for that setup.

Saying it "works" doesn't mean anything in the context of what people like Hihey, Snorlax, or myself are saying.  We didn't say it didn't work.  A phaeston "works."  A  Batarian Sentinel "works."  Simply "working" doesn't make someting amazingly good.

First they are bad players to me, Second they are spraying not aiming. I watched the first 3 minutes and in the first minute- minute and 1/2, 3 people went down. They're spraying through smoke and just hitting obstacles.

[GodlessPaladin]

So you think LeFlamko is a bad player?

is the name meant to mean something?

[LadyAlekto]

Exactly what Shenlong said

That aim is so often off on these guys and all hipfire only, that is not how to handle a revenant, that is what a scrub does with a great gun
