So after looking at the rules and whatnot for the R'varna Riptide Battlesuit (or as i call it the 'Ripped tide' (i.e riptide on steriods)) i think it is pretty good as it has both Infantry and MC/tank killing potential due to its two pulse submunitions cannons.
However, i do not know how it performs in a tabletop sense
If anyone does have experience with a 'ripped tide' do you know of any good strategies?

It's good if your enemies like to field bikes, cavalry, MCs or vehicles. He's not good to kill common infantry (you have boatloads of S5 for that).

It's very pricy, though. more than 250p for a non-mobile MC is quite the tax - I wouldn't use one in a TAC list
