Anything with HM or MM makes it decent. There are better choices but it's ok on a Geth, Marksman, or Ghost.

It's awful. It *should* be a huge damage dealer, with weight and poor stability/accuracy being it's drawbacks. But the damage is so poor it's just not worth it. I've taken it on Gold, it's a joke.

Really? I find it works quite well on gold. And I take it in a Hsol

I *think* I used it on a TSol/Glacier last time & got so left behind. Mind you ...I was playing with the Elite DBags so I'm used to being left behind :whistle:

I like the gun... just... it could be so much more...

I can make it work with a TSol on gold (20 headshots medalPosted Image), but it definitely needs a buff somewhere. 

Holy crap :huh:

Needs a scope, stability damper, piercing and extra damage. Shame there's only two weapon mod slots!

Hurricane I vs Revenant X

Damage -
Hurricane: 108
Revenant: 80

Weight -
Hurricane: .85
Revenant: 1.25

Reload Time –
Hurricane: 1.5s
Revenant: 2.9s

Accuracy –
Hurricane: 35
Revenant: 15

Clip Size –
Hurricane: 40
Revenant: 60

At level 1, the Hurricane is lighter, deals more damage, and is more accurate than the Revenant X. Its only drawbacks are the greater recoil and smaller clip size, but because of the Revenant’s long reload time, you’ll actually fire more bullets over time with the Hurricane.

And stabilisation armour module and barrage gear... you kind of have to build an entire class and all consumable slots around this gun!

Scope? I hate scoping it. Makes the recoil issues worse, and is difficult to do with sustained fire guns as you can't really run-and-gun.

Rosy is a fat **** of gun, treat her right an the revenant will be your enemys doom.

Btw all geth and turians as well as human soldiers are very well equipped to make a beadt of it.


Impressive [/Garrus]

But the HM bonuses there are pretty key, as well as Glacier being such a small map. Its not great outside of the accuracy boosting kits (TSol, Destroyer, Geth, Quarksman can make it work too).


Ask anyone who ever played with me, i work magic with that weapon.

I barely take it on the gi because it makes gold a joke and platinum a cakewalk.

I prefer it on the ghost and geth engineer

Also if you need a stibilizer for this weapon, youre not supposed to take it and stop playing a simple shooter as this alltogether, i suggest angry birds and the likes for your skill level.

ALso it doesnt need accuracy boost, cover+aim = snipe

IMO it's not really great ever. At least not as great as it should be. Headshots are pretty much manditory for me when I use it.

Just you. The Revenant's amazing if you put it on any kit that has accuracy, stability and rate of fire bonuses.

Needs more accuracy.

Damage isn't too bad when all of the rounds land on target. Problem is that it takes certain classes to achieve that (not many).

I use it with the AP and EB mods on my Destroyer for optimal damage output. Not amazing, but it feels like the general workhorse weapon in my Destroyer's hands. I use it to kill mooks fairly well, and when boss units get in close-mid range I pull out my Piranha (smark choke/HVB) to burn them down.

If you want more damage. Replace AP mod with AP rounds - 'tis what I do, so I can then stick EB and my Scope on it.

I've not played with "Elite Dbags" - I'm just stuck with constant randoms.. So I wouldn't know what it's like to be left behind Posted Image.
Pfft - 20 Headshot medal isn't impressive when you have Marksman or/and a scope Posted Image

I think it's really bad.... and I give all guns a chance. When I last whipped it out for the AR challenge, I was not impressed... even on a GI.  That's par for the course when speaking about pretty much every rare assault rifle in the game though....

Actually, putting the Scope on is to help the Revenant's accuracy when hip-firing it, oddly enough.

If the Revenant needs all 5 of these...

- Precision Scope
- Stability Damper
- Stabilization Module
- Barrage Upgrade
- Devastator Mode (N7 Destroyer) / Marksman (Turian) / Adrenaline Rush (Alliance Marine) / Hunter Mode (Geth)

... to make it effective?  That's just sad.  It was awesome in ME2.  In ME3?  Yeah, not so much.

The Revenant is pretty good on a GI. Problem is... what isn't? Not to mention there are far better options.

I can score 170k+ consistently with that loadout on Platinum. Give me a Harrier and that number rises to 210k easily. The Revie really needs a buff.

Lol, when a gun is "not so special" on a GI it means it plainly sucks.

Makes the gun effective at range.
And I'm fairly sure it improves hipfire accuracy too.
And most importantly...
Manual recoil control (Quite easy on mouse/controller, but I Imagine it'd be a nightmare on a touchpad though).

Wow, I'm not sure what I said there deserved a "L2Pnoob" response. You posted a video of a GI using it on Glacier, which is basically ideal conditions. If you had posted a vid of it on a Ghost or Gethgineer on Rio, I would have had a different response.

I don't use stab mods on it though I do tend to stick to the TSol using it.

Hard cover? No thanksPosted Image

I'm not quite sure how, but I've accumulated a lot of BSN hard core gamer xbox buddies. All really fun dudes/girls. The only problem is, they're all insanely good and are running around with PPR X's. It's rough on the epeen. :crying: lol.

It was my first rare to X, and I used to run it on Gold with my HSol + Stability mod.

Wasn't THAT bad...

Random map-.- i prefer reactor anyways

Also look when that was made, there was no ghost back then, and it was made to show the power of the revenant gi to some other noobs that doubted, the only one outsoring me there had been grimy, and that guys a one man armada

i started with the revenant before the gi, i used it on h-infiltrator, its a beast if you know how to play its strengths and counter its weakness
