Very first platinum match, EXCELLENT team of people, ton of synergy....and I freaking topped the charts by a good 40k, winding up around, like...140-150k points at the end.

Now, i dunno if thats good or bad for a platinum player on average, but I know its pretty dang good for a FIRST TIME player on platinum.  Especially considering it plopped me in the middle of the match during wave 2 or 3, I forget, being attacked by a husk.

Pretty much ALL thanks to the Revenant.  I know damn good and well I couldn't pull that off with another gun (MAYBE the Typhoon, but I don't have it yet so I can't compare).

I'm just guessing that people are usually using it wrong.  it is a crowd control gun, through and through.  A mob duster.  I freaking LOVE IT!

It can't hit a crowd to save it's life.

Did you really just call the Revenant a CC weapon?

Also, flamewar incoming

It hits the ENTIRE crowd.  At once.  until the clip runs out of ammo.  The spread is a godsend.

yes, it has alot of utility hurting those shields that fill right back up with 6 stray bullets.

 are you aware with piercing mods bullets can pierce enemies lol? 1 harrier bullet is worth 20 revanant bullets lol.

You mean those shields that drop within a second or two followed by the flesh or armor underneath getting absolutely shredded, with this happening across multiple enemies and me still having half a clip left without having to even reload yet?

The Revenant couldn't hit the Citadel if you were standing in the Presidium.

I can put piercing on the revenant as well, you know.  And my point stands, the revanant can attack entire groups of people at the same time, which is something the harrier can't do.

... The spread could only count as a "godsend" if you're blind and are physically incapable of aiming. <_<

Everybody will hate on you because once people start hating things the BSN just hops on a crazy bandwagon. The rev is a pretty decent gun for what it does, i agree.

[ABjerre]

Reverant is good for getting assists - spray in the general direction of the enemies and someone is bound to eventually get hit.

Killing stuff however, is an entirely different matter...

I agree with you on the bandwagon thingy, and the Reverant is decent. The problem is that it is only decent when paired with sertain specs and / or kits and gear. That by comparison makes it inferior to other AR's that do not require these setups in order to be efficient.

The Reverant: Nice ROF, ton of ammo, sorta good damage when considering how many bullets you have. This is completely negated by the lack of being able to hit anything. As a result people people go for:

The Mattock: Higer damage and lower ammo - but still enough considering its accuracy. Somewhat negated by the fact that your index finger is the limiter here when it comes to ROF. So instead people go for:

The Harrier: Higher damage and higher accuracy (than the Reverant), high ROF, no ammo though.

I trust that you are beginning to see a pattern here, yes? Accuracy, Damage, Ammo, ROF - pick any 3, but only 3.

This was mostly me just being excited that my first successful platinum match went so dang well.

[Deerber]

Let's put it this way:



If the only kind of enemy in the game was Atlases.

And if they never were more than half a meter from you.

And if you equip a scope on it.

And use it on Turian Soldier with Marksman specced for accuracy.

And if you use a stabilization mod 3, as well as the recoil dampener or whatever it's called.



... Then it could, maybe, in theory, be an ok gun. Nothing special, but ok.

I love the reactions.

The OP just made his/her first Platinum success using it. This isn't like if Jay used the gun, because Jay can make any gun look good. This is someone who used this weapon to make his/her first Platinum success, and that says something about the gun.

Also, congrats OP.

[Hausner85]

I just concentrate on headshots... you don't need crowd control if whole crowd is dead. I do like Revenant but i use it with scope and marksman ton's of bullet on enemies heads....This is proper crowd control for me. One dead body every 1-1.5 sec

 i just think OP is exaggerating and been rolling with that...
no contempt
 and btw, i did read the OP, but i kinda responded to the title, it could sound a little more like first platinum success.

Lol. OP has a sense of humor! Cool. No ones knocking the Reverant. It's a good gun to have while one moves up but it fails in comparison to the harrier. And I've killed a mob of enemies many times with the harrier in one clip. The high dps allows you kill one enemie fast.  36 shots is a lot to rinse a mob 

[jaydubs67]

Are you actually making the argument that being horribly inaccurate is a good thing?  Because if you happen to be shooting into an entire crowd of enemies, the bullets will be spread between them instead of killing 1 of them?

I usually disagree with everything you say. I commented again to specifically say I agree with this.

Also everybody really over exaggerates the spray. You people make it sound like it shoots half the screen. Standard it's not even that bad, put it on a class like the destroyer or anything with marskman and it becomes pretty damn accurate.

Not really, I was still killing things faster than everyone else, this is including the guy with the harrier.  On the one wave that I died, they took a lot longer to get through the wave.

Now granted, this is on my destroyer, but if I went harrier on my destroyer, i'd be the one getting destroyed.  Harrier just flat doesn't suit the purpose as well.  its a burst fire gun, not a sustained fire gun.
