MechWarrior 5 Beginner's Manual: Raven RVN-1X Mech Build
[Document 1]
Welcome MechWarrior to Ronin Fox Armored Security's Beginner Training Manuals for the Highlander Raven RVN-1X.
Weight Class: Light
Role: Scout
Threat Level: Reduced
Availability: Rare
An oddity in current times, the Raven is a completely new Mech model equipped with unusual lostech inspired technology.
Created near the 4th Succession War, the Raven represents House Liao's desire to stay ahead of the technology curve in interesting ways. It was specifically designed to carry a new generation of electronic warfare weapons to battle.
Overall, the Raven is a bit slow for a Scout making its thin armor even more vulnerable, but its unique electronics may make it worth while.
Instant Action Code: MDMzODQxODMwMzMwMmsxMDEw
Input this code during an Instant Action training pod simulation to recreate this same battle for training.

    the screen shake from the ecm much reduce now. Also, no melee binds for the centurion? I had finished the spider off with a melee shot. I think the reduced repair bill is because the 1 mil estimate probably included all the destroyed weps value, and you can't repair destroyed weps so it only gave for armor and remaining wep repairs..

    The Raven's a special mech to me as this was the first mech I got when I played in Mechwarrior Online. I even went out of the way to grab this whenever I get the chance, and with the DLC upgrade this to be quite the useful support mech/harasser. Heck, because if your videos, you influenced how I looked at the X2 before this video arrived. Thanks.

      In gaming terms, viable refers to being an effective option. When someone says something is "non-viable" they don't mean it isn't literally unusable but rather nor worth it the effort. Flamers are viable and worth it even in level 100 missions. I have demonstrated it many times with exceptional times to kill.

    This game boils down to making good choices under pressure, that’s the main “skill check” there is. So I understand why it’s hard to make the game feel harder since the only way to do so is to add more pressure via more freak and enemy spawns in general

    • @GitGudFox

      That's exactly the issue. The higher the difficulty, the faster you have to make your decisions, but the correct decision defeats the game every time. Now that could be argued for any game.

Not necessarily a 100% correct perspective but I don't like to assume very much. I'd prefer to not talk about something at all rather than pretend I know what I'm talking about. To that end, I don't want to talk about the "best and worst" Mechs until I've actually sat down and tried them all for a reasonable amount of time. That's what my Mech exploration streams are all about.

      @GitGudFox Před 9 dny

      You can also counter arm loss by managing your distance. In specifically MW5, there is damage dropoff on weapon ranges, and the AI won't even fire certain weapons beyond their soft range limits like the AC20. You can avoid a lot of damage even though the weapons are literally hitting you because they're doing like half their normal damage due to range falloff. That's what's happening in this video in many cases. I'm being hit, but they aren't doing full damage.
