i find the outrider class is a bit unfair in my opinion. my reasons for thinking tis are.. they have more boost meaning they can remain in air longer, this allows them to be able to hover long and thn spam grenades when gunners or sents have no energy and as grenades are the most powerful wep they kill quickly. and other reason is because they have so much energy there also smaller and faster..so in a midair battle they just dart left to right making it to hard for a gunner to hit with cg or rocket allowing them to just chaingun us to death and nade us when we are out of energy. Yes they have lower health but if we can hit them how does this help???

Outrider has lower health, but extra mobility. Back in IA's day they used to have much longer Overdrive due to them not taking as much damage.

If you can't beat them, don't moan here, just avoid them, -OR- start playing it yourself :)

All it takes to kill them is a nade and finish them with chain. If they get sniped they are dead. They aren't really good for dueling, unless you can hover really long and kill them before they ground pound you. I think they are more for stopping and chasing cappers because the mobility allows you to hit them harder, and block them. For chasing on zenith, you just need a rj off front of base and you are already at there base without skiing.

If I'm not mistaken, everyone has the same amount of jets, but due to the differences of weight/mass, OR needs less jets to go the same height as a Sentinel. If you cannot compensate with their movement, then just ground pound them with a rocket/grenade and you'll destroy them quickly. If you MA an Outrider with a grenade, you take them down to <25% health. Also, OR can only have 2 weapons at a time - Raider and Sentinel can have 3. Just because you find something difficult doesn't mean it should be removed.

The outraider doesn't has more energy it just uses more energy for a special move. I think the outraider is okay. At the moment the Legions system is balanced i think and it should stay like it is. Just wait till the outraider has no boost - sometimes he HAS to land and then just kill him on the ground.​

*dance* i am on My iPod but hitbox of sent, outrider and raider are the same.
Got a pic of it but not on my ipod, so that argument is already invalid. And they have less energy they just weigh less and because of that they need less effort to go up. And it may proof usefull to aim.
 
Dev's Removing a class would probably make half the community just up and leave. and if not half, then 1/4 then another 1/4 rage.

Shame on you for threatening to remove my favorite class. I play chaser on larger maps with the chaser loadout, and I assure you, you will get the crap beat out of you if you try to duel with them. A few shots from the CG and one GL round and I die. The OR is not a defensive class. It is speed and mobility. I use it for chasing and capping. Why? Because it sucks at dueling. Switching to gunner can drastically improve my abilities in a duel over the OR.

The OR is speed. I can easily intercept cappers with it and kill them a good chunk of the time. But, stay at home defense is better served by playing something such as gunner. In fact, if I do play SaH, I will play as gunner.

If you think that the OR is OP now, you should have seen it back when it was first added. The OR completely changed the face of Legions due to its vastly superior overdrive (it took almost no damage while in it, so you could go and go and go). That's been killed. The OR is now fine and I wouldn't change it, much less delete it.
