Having to use every stability mod possible including character's inherent stability to make it somewhat functional is a clear sign that its not worth using.. Period
Say the retired guy.

Who like most other veterans here know more than you and nearly everything there is to know about a game that hasn't changed in over 2 years... I'm arguing with you. I know better..

I even tried it on my GI.....No Bang.

Retirement is not knowing better, is what I meant.

I did too once with the GI. I sincerely tried my best to be optimistic about it but I could never use it without quitting in the early waves. ![]()
I tried on a gold solo earlier this evening,and just...no.
Using Revenant is not knowing better, is what I meant.
fixed
^ I was talking about the stability comment in general.
^ It's the accuracy being the the main issue. You lose a lot of dps by not having all the bullets go where you want. Just compare it to the Lancer. Same dps, only one is much more accurate.
Tried it last night on the Destroyer, T-Sol, TGI & Havoc..used all stability --everything .. I give up. It's nice if there is an Atlas right in front of you...other wise..I would have to have a mook stationary or on the ground --dat Cryo blast yo'.
I don't know what some are expecting exactly. Stat DPS is around 695 reload canceled, 860 burst. With MM you should be able to up that and land nearly everything on target. Revenant is clearly overshadowed by many weapons that do a lot more damage, but it is adequate for Gold. Mostly against humanoids at close range.
I played it on the Destroyer, several weeks ago. The accuracy is nearly unbearable, and in general it's a very underwhelming weapon. I'd rather use any of the other rare assault rifles.
I have had the fortune of rolling this gun as my first rare card on at least 2 accounts. It absolutely owns, when on a Tsol in Bronze
Other than that, a Revenant I is ridiculously bad, and without a significant boost to accuracy, is impossible to hit anything that's not the size of a jumbo jet at point blank range.
The stability is also ridiculous, but nowhere near as big a problem as the accuracy. Lol at the #s posted by Capn on this . ."min zoom aim error: 1.2" - so that means it never lands in the middle of the aiming reticule, not even by chance?
The only kit I have used this on Gold with was the TGI, so I could be point blank range without worrying about being hit
You're not gonna want to hear this, but.... HARD COVER. The Revenant was not made to be fired in the open. Hard cover makes a huge difference in stability and accuracy for this gun. You don't even need an accuracy-boosting class, although you may still want some sort of stability mod, depending on how good you are at controlling the recoil. If you're going to do this though, you need a class that can take a lot of hits. Turian Sentinel makes sense. My favorite is the Justicar specced for Defensive Bubble and maximum shield recharge rate. Just sit there in cover and keep the dakka going, pausing only to Reave and Reload. I promise, its The Most Fun You Will Ever Have In Hard CoverTM
lol, I just put this Revenant X on a Turian Ghost to try this out, entered a lobby, and everybody bailed on me one after the other like I smelled funny. ![]()

You are right.... now make like a tree and get out of here.
On-tapic...will give it a go..got a few more points 2go for the challenge ......When I used the Typhoon on non-Destroyer characters..I would use hard cover for the same reason ...
^^^^^^^^^^^ You people gotta try the Typhoon Female Quarian Engee. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^.....it is ridiculously fun.
I tried on a gold solo earlier this evening,and just...no.
Lemme guess ...Wave 1 rage quit...As you were firing at the 1 cannibal 7 feet in front of you...98% of the bullets were missing & the rest of the enemies took you down?
I'm not really bagging on the Revenant too much....I really do like it on the vanilla human female soldier ...
Double post in the hizz-ouse ...Accuracy and the CAR? If the CAR were a movie it would be named " Revenant 2: The Revenge"

Using a gun that is heavily dependent on hardcover for functionality doesn't sound ideal. Atleast to me it doesn't and it makes for quite the boring game session don't you think?
Here's my Revenant Ghost results;

Now you guys may think this is an epeen thread, but the level 4 Drell in last was using the Shuriken lvl.1. The one in second last Slayer Avenger X. And the Jug Reeger V. Only had to clean up wave 3 pizza because they all died while I was delivering the first pizza, of course. But after that I made sure they all stayed in the game with all the revives and stim packs I could muster. Must of used over a 100 stim packs, but what a great game. Just want to say GGs to these players. And the Revenant makes great home on the Ghost if your crying for more cheese from the Revenant.
For the next game only the Drell stayed and all the new players wanted to kick him. Not on my watch. He did much better the second game too. That and I tried Jug Revenant the next match, my ultimate pug carrying machine. Still got the 20 headshot medal on wave 8, but at a score of 14k instead of 18k. Also another great Revenant Gold pug match. GGs to those players too.
wheres saikyo in all of this?

This isn't an epeen thread but this comment of yours is epeen. Also 218k isn't anything to show off. Had you been playing with competent bsnrs you'd be in the low 100k maybe lower. Just saying. Also lol at 31 mins gold pug match
^ With competent BSN'ers everyone would be around 100k. That's how it always goes.
