Raven Anticheat vsXeroShield

Hardcore client-side AC vs Raven's dual-layer detection at lifetime price. Aggressive client-side Fivem anticheat marketed for hardcore protection.

Raven Anticheat

Recommended

Dual client and server-side Fivem anticheat. Cloud panel with live player map, trust scoring, evidence screenshots, global ban database, and Discord role sync.

  • Dual client + server-side detection running together by default
  • Cloud panel with live GTA V player map, trust scoring, evidence screenshots
  • Global ban database synced across every Raven server
  • Auto-detects ESX, QBCore, vRP, QBox, and Standalone
  • Lifetime $100 (one-time) - no recurring subscription
  • 24/7 Discord support; under 0.5ms Fivem resmon

XeroShield

Detection

Client-focused signature and injection detection (V3 series).

Pricing

Recurring subscription, multi-tier.

Strengths

  • Frequently named in cheat-tester threads for tough client-side protection
  • Active patch cadence against known executors
  • Token-based session integrity checks

Trade-offs

  • Heavy client-side bias - lighter on server-event validation
  • Subscription-only pricing rather than a lifetime option
  • Cloud panel and admin tooling are less polished than newer entrants

When to pick which

Pick Raven if

You want client-side AND server-side detection in the same product (not just hardened client signatures), a modern cloud panel with live GTA V map and session replay, and a one-time $100 lifetime price.

Pick XeroShield if

Your single biggest pain is client-side injection from named executors and you accept ongoing subscription cost in exchange for that focus.
