Well, that's a bummer.

The main reason I hate revenants is because they're so god damn overused.
By the end of Plutonia I was over them completely. They're excellent medium tier monsters and work well in groups but they're almost exclusive in their threat level and as more doom levels get made that's why I dont mind if some mappers want to use custom monsters.

How many times have we played a map only to be confronted by 20+ revenants? Or you fight a huge group of them?
A revenant swarm is almost an entirely new monster in itself, they're great in mobs.

Not saying levels that use them are bad or it's a silly tactic, it's a viable tactic. But I just see it so often I'd like a change.
