LACKS FIREPOWER!?!? ARE YOU CRAZY? This thing has 87% of the fury’s firepower. THAT ARGUMENT IS INVALID

Here are the pros and cons

Pros: - very high durability - great firepower - able to climb - durable shields - Shields cannot be damaged if bastion mode is not active - decent speed for a heavy bot - low frame means it can hit a stealthed stalker - only 2 hardpoints makes it easier and faster to max out

Cons: - Very wide frame - Needs to activate bastion mode to get extra firepower - overall slow speed - shields can’t protect you from splash damage - becomes immobile while in bastion mode - can easily block tight spaces

Now compare this to a griffin which is supposed to be viable

Pros: - can jump, making easy to ambush and retreat - good firepower - decent speed for a heavy bot Cons:

- Low health for a heavy bot - no form of protection - becomes very vulnerable after landing - overall slow speed - pretty large frame - 4 hardpoints make it hard and time consuming to max out See? If the griffin is viable but the raijin is not, then there is a problem
