The issue here is, just focusing on the stamina and health, A hunter with both those perks and Samurai with both those perks have the same amount of “stats” Because the Samurai trades stamina for extra health. There is nothing the Hunter can take to make it tankier than a Samurai with Impen.
Hunter just better Samurai?
You are ignoring the solid parts to my argument lol. Yes, samurai can also use impen, but that’s his only perk then of choice. Cause he needs Adrenaline boost or he’s literally DOA. So yes, you can match base hunter stamina, and then have slightly more hp, but hunter STILL has more stamina AND is faster and his natural armor that’s unique to him and scout plus impen will leave you just about as tank as samurai. Plus one final perk slot for something that’s a nice quality of life perk like branch master. It means you are giving up speed, stamina, and a 3rd perk to have like fractions of a second more before you are winded. That’s, bad. Lol.
That’s not true at all
They will indeed not have the same stamina lol and impen stacks onto hunter base armor so the health difference won’t be anything big
The one point I’ll give you is alpha. But that’s not news to me I’ve been saying alpha is 3rd best predator for awhile now. In my opinion it’s hunter or city hunter as top 2 depending on preference, then Alpha
Yeah because sure I might have “Shit states” but I can still kick some Fireteam ass wile I’m having fun looking at my Samurai
Can’t argue with that. Lol. I’m not saying never use him. If you love the class obviously use it!
Here’s the thing,
That argument still works with or without perks.
Samurai isn’t bad because of other rclasses with perks he’s bad because his base stats are bad
Not to mention you applied this logic to every class.
Viking with impen adrenal is going to be just as different to impen adrenal hunter as base Viking is too base Hunter.
Hunter is definitely better than samurai there’s no two ways about it. Apply the perks. See the the difference in stamina, stamina recovery, speed, and only slightly less TTK on your hunter. Hunter makes samurai a second rate class. Now yea, you can give Viking impen and he’ll be much tankier. But… Viking might be worse than samurai lol. He’s wayyyy too slow. Again, keep in mind I’m talking about playing a team. You can kill a squad of randoms with full melee scout lol
Samurai is a worse beserker and worse hunter
I almost feel he’s a little better than zerk just cause zerk can’t bring adrenaline boost and impen
You don’t need to apply the perks to prove samurai is worse. He’s just worse by default.
My point wasn’t that he was good, the point was that the perks don’t change anything.
Because it’s Vikings poor base stats.
I did not say they have the same stamina. Read what I just said.
Impen stacks onto Samurai base armour so there is a health difference.
Yeah read what I said. Difference. But not one even close to be worth ALL the draw backs
Ok so I’m right? Then what have we been talking about lol
Your point is right but your argument of “with perks hunter outclasses samurai” is flawed.
In particular your argument that it applies to every class is also wrong.
No it’s not. My argument about hunter and samurai is entirely correct haha. With perks, without perks, hunter is a better samurai. Due to his armor. He’s just worse than hunter period. And my point is you can use long jump and adrenaline boost and now you’re a better alpha and scout. The only thing you can’t match is zerk health.
Every Predator is viable you just have to play to their strengths
Although I have yet to play as scout
I didint say not viable. I said hunter is just way better than the rest. There “strengths” he does better. Wanna tell me zerk is better at melee? Nope. You will swing a few times and have no stamina to get out. Is scout supposed to be “better” at range? Cause he’s not. You literally just have less health
Semantics.
What if I ran long jump and adrenal on scout and Alpha?
