I recently tried out Ravanger and think that the Ravanger ability is kinda useless :/
I mean it's a lvl50 ab and does something like -12 Viral Resistance and 8 sec of confuse (if i remind correct).

Maybe it's just because i forgot what downgrades Confuse has SMILEY

Can anyone enlighten me or am i right?

Confuse has the effects of powerless... So no IS moves (except HJ)

 Don't know what downgrades it has thou... I think Combat Tactics -20% like blind ... =/

Ok that would make sense and make it better then the vector ability (6sec of powerless).
Thx for the info

the real pain though is the longer activation time and lower viral defence debuff, i mean the reason that its there is to incrase the ammount of damage you can do with your dots , but due to the timer and the high chance that anything with an activation timer of 6 seconds will get interupted with stun or powerless or just damage , i mean i have my concentration ability loaded all of the time and i still get interupted quite often, so i just avoid loading it.

Ravager isn't worth wasting 5 memory slots. This ab doesn't add any usefull passiv buffs and the debuff isn't worth an IS cost of 120.

Yeah, the vector ability is much more effective IMO, though thee are better downgrades out there with the same casting timers...

Confuse only works in interlock. It has no effect if the opponent is outside of interlock.

Ravager is useless, it's like a watered down version of Vector, which takes longer to use and costs more memory to load SMILEY.

Whenever I see a hacker with that tag above them I think to myself "Poor guy doesn't stand a chance".
