Overview[ | ]

The RVN-3L is a recently produced version of the scout 'Mech that puts to use quite a number of rediscovered Lostech technologies. Powering the 'Mech is a weight saving XL Engine. ECM protects the 'Mech and nearby friendlies from enemy radar, while BAP allows it to more effectively find enemies. Finally, a NARC Beacon and TAG Laser allow it to tag enemy 'Mechs for other missile equipped 'Mechs to target.


Strengths[ | ]

  • ECM
  • BAP
  • TAG and NARC Beacon gives the Raven the ability to effectively spot and hold targets for allied LRMs.
  • Can equip larger engines than the other Raven models.
  • The missile hardpoint in the RT supports up to 10 tubes. The missile hardpoint in the LA supports up to 20 tubes.

Weaknesses[ | ]

  • The XL Engine means that if a side torso is destroyed, the 'mech is taken out.
  • Mere adequate Speed for a Scout Mech (Is slower than a Jenner, assuming both are stock).
  • Use of both TAG and NARC can be a bit redundant as they both serve a similar purpose. But NARC allows for tag-and-run.

Chassis Quirks[ | ]

  • -5% Laser Duration
  • +10% Missile Range
  • +10% Missile Velocity
  • +10% Improved Missile Cooldown
  • +100 NARC Beacon Range
  • +15 NARC Beacon duration
  • Structure Bonus: +8 Legs

Changelog[ | ]

  • October 23, 2012: RVN-3L Variant introduced to game.
  • November 27, 2012: Right Arm displays if no energy weapons are mounted.
  • December 4, 2012: Became Guardian ECM capable.
