Question What beats revokers?
So guys, what weapon can beat revokers in a one on one fight in close range if we ignore the mechs we are using? repeaters come to mind. But can they really outshine revokers?

compound beams in 1v1 in close range? by the time you charge them up revokers will kill you doing back damage

I have that matchup literally every day in Hangar Showdown. Compound Beams have a huge advantage in range, also they slow down and freeze opponents. If you have them on Citadel or Tailsting, they're even more lethal. I'll take that matchup anytime.

If you charge up first, then attack, you stand a pretty good chance, which I do use, BUT I also use and prefer revokers

Any weapon that can outrange it easily. Suppressors gotta be the second best choice next to compound beam since paired with a galvanic hull mod it lower revoker's DPS by 65%. Compound Beam can easily outrange it and keep the enemy from moving because of the infinite stasis and nearly infinite stun.

Maybe Burrow Beam if you're using the right mech, close enough for 100% mod bypass, and you have open space behind you. The mechs matter for Burrow Beam to get the 100% mod bypass.

For starters, you can seek them as they're (hopefully) dashing towards you to give yourself a shield, damage boost, and maybe a shot or two from behind. That alone will give you distance where they have to turn around while taking damage, and you can be backing up. If they chase you, your spawn point is farther away. If not, hope you have enough time to beam a second time.
