Ideas for a revenant buff
There was so much hype for him , but as of now he is kinda underwhelming and needs a buff
Forum Discussion
His quips are pure evil but so funny.
Slight speed boost? He walks as fast as other legends walk upright. This is important in two aspects- Means you can basically crouch walk very quickly to or from a fight without anyone knowing and when in a gun fight you can crouch and shoot, moving side to side extremely fast crouched with a smaller target.
As for the need to heal after a push. That is up to whoever is rev putting it in a spot where you wont get instantly shot.
Regarding the hit box, it is what it is.
This is what I know for me- He is now my 2nd choice to path and I already have over 20 wins with him. Not sure what the percentage is but overall I'm 10% or more this season and seem to win more with him. Maybe it is just luck?
@hayhorIf you compare with Wraith in a gunfight she has the same hitbox as him when he's crouching and because she's standing she can strafe at roughly the same speed.
That's why I mentioned the sliding as it's more effective than crouch walking a bit faster and you can mix it up with your strafing to change not only your direction but also speed making it much less predictable.
If you make a push you'll need to be reasonably close to the action to fight the remaining people or finish anyone you downed but they can revive, pop a battery and relocate in the time it takes you to get back in the action and that's without considering the high risk of using his ultimate.
I heard some people say his silent is good for collecting banners but Crypto would be of more use with a lot less risk and Path will always have the advantage to getting high ground.
I used him exclusively when S4 released but after awhile I realised that other legends have more utility even though he is probably one of my favourite characters.
Edit: An idea for a buff.. Let them choose if it's health or armour/shields you wish to take damage on and have damage tick over time for his tactical. Also fix his hitbox.
- @apostolateofDOOM Yeah I have used his stealth to get banners. I will have to look up the hitbox sizing vs wraith as you mention. I did not see it this way but I admittedly do not study things in that much detail. At the end of the day I play the game to have some fun and I find him effective and fun to use.
I like the buff idea you mentioned. I've been in spots where people couldnt use the protection because they did not have heals.- @hayhor I assumed as he's 9ft and wraith is like 4.3ft and I'm just randomly throwing these numbers out so may not be 100% accurate :P but point remains the same.
I think having the choice would make him more viable end game and adds flexibility with the amount of meds/shield you currently have.
