@LlamaWithKatanaRao and Angel are probably the two most powerful specialists in the game with how they are able to influence the battlefield. You did get points for the "hack" 20 points for the disrupt and 5 points for the spot.
I just went into a tank superiority. Hid prone in a bush and just hacked all the enemy tanks so my team could take them out with no resistance.
But none for vehicle being destroyed. Also on first video I hacked LATV but it still killed me with gun so hack doesn't even work all the time.
@EA_Atic can we have some attention to that please? It's like if Sundance grenade just disappear or Dozer dropped his shield because it is too heavy.
- 4 years ago@LlamaWithKatana Raos job is to manipulate things on the battlefield, not destroying it, there are better specialists for that.
And he is doing a pretty good job at it since it forces enemy vehicles to play passive, even the stealth heli who is forced to beeing played like a regular attack chopper.
If your team on the other hand, is not using the opportunity’s a Rao creates against vehicles is a different Situation.
Cant Tell how many hours i wasted, soflaming and hacking vehicles, only to be ignored.
Also I never understood why everyone keeps ignoring air vehicles when they fly away and beeing lasered, as soon as the flares runs out you have a increased lock on range to marked vehicles, just keep on them, even if they hide behind obstacles, the sooner they press flares the more of a chance the pilot will do an error.- 4 years ago@Bolvard this ain't related to anything I've said. Hack sometimes even don't disable weapons + it doesn't give credit for hack when the vehicle has been destroyed. It has nothing to do how to use hack ability.
Also Rao should have his own XP event rather than spot assist.

@LlamaWithKatana You are getting XP plus all the spots inside the vehicle.
The grenade was shot out just before you hacked it and it is was killed you, you dying looks like it stopping the the hack effect on the vehicle.
From personal experience Rao is very powerful vs anything flying, less vs any ground based vehicles. But ground based vehicles already have a lot of counters to it so it fits in.

- 4 years ago@EA_Atic After destruction of hacked vehicle there is spot assist xp event which didn't happen (thou I think Rao should have his own XP event).
Also after 9th second (hack event) you can see how the gun still keep firing (exactly 10th second). On top of that on kill cam I was killed by 60mm flak pod and not grenade pod.
As long as I agree that Rao is amazing there is clearly something doesn't working as intended.- Psubond4 years agoLegend
Rao is one of my go to specialists on anything other than exposure BT second sector (64 man layout). my mastery is 160+ and i use him to make life miserable for vehicles. i have caused SO many MAVs, tanks etc to be blown up because they over extend and when i hack them they are defenseless. i can't shoot down a condor or hind on my own but i can make it so if they don't run they will die because they can't shoot or use flares. He is also the best counter to stealth helos (some * actually sent me hate mail calling me a * because i hacked him then shot him down with a stinger lol, what else are you supposed to do to a helo that won't leave stealth mode?) rao is anything but useless if you know what you are doing and have somewhat competent teamates.
