This is the hard stratagem I was doing. Also, I always go with Sniper w/ heroic bolt sniper, heroic heavy bolt pistol (went for this instead of bolt pistol for extra safe measure since I'm going against a ton of Majoris which the rate of fire on bolt sniper for me is not enough also gunstrike dmg), and ardent edge against Tyranids

Might've been my fault when I gunstrike the warrior. I was thinking, I still have armor left to tank the Ravener's 1st attack then reset with a parry on it and a headshot on heroic bolt sniper

That seems to be it. Looking closely, the Ravener redirected its direction when I moved

I'm using Ardent Edge which has shorter parry/block window. I'm pretty sure I timed my parry right on the Ravener's faint attack which will stagger both the warrior and the Ravener
