The only counter is another 3L with ML and SSRM and better piloting.

RVNs have legs just like any other mech. And just like any other light mech, they are extra vulnerable. Leg the little buggers and let them sweat while you cycle up for the death blow.

(Also, If you're lucky and get a crit on the ECM, in the other jenner variants, your streaks will be enabled and the duel is essentially over... It's funny to see ECM pilots stay in the duel when their ecm is destroyed... rare but it happens... don't tunnel vision when you can suddenly fire your streaks.. it can be the difference between the raven getting you.. and you getting them... )

ECM is like Beagle Active Probe, active until death. You will not be able to crit ECM, it's a comm system upgrade to the cockpit.

Ravens are insanely easy to leg no matter how much Armor is on them. I would also like to know what this raven build is that one hits commandos because I have never been one hit. Also if you are in a fast enough commando just ride the Ravens blind spot.

I don't find Ravens harder to kill than anything else with streaks.
It's all about denying them the lock.

When piloting my Jenner-F that typically means either use my jump jets to jump over something the other mech cannot or go over a hill the other mech can follow me. Upon cresting the hill, use my JJ's to do a quick 180 and come straight at the enemy while firing six ML's as I pass him.

Oh? My Cicada M has ECM in the right torso, and it's not an upgrade but a 1.5 ton 2 slot piece of equipment
