Regular rastas are limited in the weapons they can wield. And they can only have 1 ability at a time unlike premium haxtas. They can use end-game weapons and use 3/4 abilities at once. They also can't hit you like normal ones can and you can't hit them either. Plus haxtas get you items after each quest. Normal ones don't.
