How would you guys feel about the Predator having a heavy wrist blade attack ? I’m thinking it would deplete a third of stamina bar to use but applies 3 points of bleed damage (non stackable) per sec. If parried no damage taken but your entire stamina bar is depleted (fireteam) Also if the predator is parried while heavy attacking the stun timer is og stun time. If done while cloaked before the dcloak you would hear the predator “growl” It would be a telegraphed wind up animation giving you a heads up. Not sure about the base damage though…also would you guys like to see the fireteam put more weight behind their light & heavy knife attacks animation wise? Be well
Heavy attacks, animations, bleed

Melee needs to be expanded in general. Makes no sense for both sides to just mash the attack button.
Parry should’ve been a guard to begin with or have a counter parry. Instead whipping out knife just completely shuts down melee if the pred doesnt have a netgun lol. Its insane from a design standpoint that they keep releasing melee weapons when majority of the combos are unusable.

Ab.so.lutley.
He also needs a block and parry. Block at the very least.

Fuck yeah. If 20 year old games have better melee surely we can make that happen

I’m in favor of improvements to melee mechanics in general but especially the Wristblades deserve some more love imo. Slightly faster and add a small bleed DoT. Heavy “charged” attack would be nice but I think the base attack needs some buffs too. Again small so nothing too crazy but mechanics wise it needs to be at least as good as FTs knife. It being worse is just depressing.

I feel like the melee from AvP 2010 was better, once people get the timing of the parry down, and it really didn’t take me long, then they either need to change the system or buff other aspects of Predator to compensate.
