Talk:Revenant

From Doom Wiki

If anyone remembers whether the Revenant wears pants or not (I recall this was debated and cleared a few years back, but I can't quite remember what the conclusion itself was), go ahead add the final truth about Revenant's pantsness/pantslessness to the article thank you very much ;) - Janizdreg 01:41, 9 Feb 2005 (GMT)

[edit] Vertical tracking

Removed from the article:

Also, their missiles can only turn on a horizontal plane, not a vertical one: if a Revenant fires from above, all the player needs to do is move backwards and the missile will eventually impact on the ground.

It is true that from a great vertical height or short horizontal distance, there is a high chance of a tracking revenant fireball impacting the ground, but given a sufficient shallow angle a tracker can and will level off with the player and continue to track them. This is easy to observe on The Courtyard (in Vanilla 1.9). Clear out all the monsters except one or two revenants, and have them fire at you. If you are about half way across the courtyard and backing up quickly, the trackers will level off before impacting the floor and continue to track you. --Splarka (talk) 11:22, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
