Ravagers are terrible against AV 12.

3 shots, on average 2 will hit, those two both have a 33% chance to penetrate. That's about a 66% chance for one penetrating hit per Ravager. That's awful. That's really really awful. Especially since then you have to roll on the vehicle damage chart and pray to god you don't roll immobilized. All in all, a Ravager only has something like a 20% chance of destroying a Land Raider. Which is fine, since it's less than half the cost of the Land Raider, but to expect a Ravager to do well against one will leave you sorely, sorely disappointed. You'd need three to reliably kill a single land raider a turn.

Strength 8 is incredibly inefficient against AV 12, you need to spam the hell out of it to do proper damage.

That's what you do wish dak eldar thou, isn't it? Focus many shots on as little of an army as possible? That's what I do.
