OWLF Pitbull Rifle

#1

@OldKingHamlet @Courier

Hey guys, I’ve noticed something that needs addressing. Shouldn’t the OWLF Pitbull be in the Special Weapon category for Primary weapons? This would maybe balance the fact that it’s stupidly OP when used by an Assault Class with Deadly.

Also, can someone verify that it does NOT receive the standard damage increase from Assault Class for “bullet based weapons” (@SkooLBoY_SkePtiK have you done any tests yet?) because technically it isn’t firing standard bullets.

Thanks, Predator Office for Internal Bleeding Affairs.

OWLF Pitbull is garbage rifle.

What is the total percentage increase for Assault Class running Bane and Deadly? Because that’s a total of three damage buffs, standard bullet based weapons buff for class plus Bane perk plus Deadly Specialisation. Please tell me that it doesn’t equate to 30% increased damage for Assault rifles…

I also want to know if Pitbull is a bullet weapon or not
I hope Illfonic puts a clarification tag next to all weapons specifying if it’s bullet or not, once we get more non bullet weapons
I also hope we can change ammo types later in the future, I want some “plasma” ammo and incendiary ammo

  • Side Note: I can’t wait for the Freezer gun from Predator 2

Gosl-R with these 3 buffs can second wind an Hunter class in 25 bullets (test in private). When you play the game you can get 2 additional damage buffs with Sniper and Leader.

Understood. Let me know when you’re up for some testing, you are going to need a couple of Fireteam players to test the stacks etc so I’m available given enough notice (timezones)👍🏼

Damn, so that’s potentially 5 damage bumps if the right squad composition is met… I honestly don’t think Illfonic thought this through thoroughly, because if this was known then they really don’t care at all for the Pred players who have been pointing out the balancing issues for months.

They know my man. In their stream they have played 4 assault with Deadly , they knew it was broken. In one game in Derailed they killed the Predator in 2 minutes. And in the other games they played Clash. Of course they always troll when playing fireteam to let the Predator play a bit more than 3 minutes. But if they play seriously they can kill the Predator in 2 minites as every premades in pubs now. I would say 2 decent players duo queue is enough for a good 99,9999% win rate. I have this win rate when I play alone and a lot of friends too…

The wording makes me think that sniper only applies to the recon, not the whole team.

@VENN7eance
I believe 4 stacks of 10% is the most
Assault passive + Bane + Deadly + Leader = +40% damage.

All I can hope for is that all the time they’re taking to re-balance the game means they are working on adding Predator specializations.

Otherwise, they better buff the shit out of the predator perks and give us the OWLF operative for free at the beginning of December.

10% is not gonna work. We need 30% damage reduction.and 30% range damage. Predator needs help for fighting premades. Noobs wont be affected by range buff cause they are noob and miss every shot. We need to buff skill.

This is totally not necessary, and needs to be fixed.

Think about that. Support + Tick Skin and one other Support that gives him 20% damage reduction. Dutch 87 + OWLF and Tick Skin with Support close to him and mud = 40% damage reduction and 180hp. Assault with Bane and OWLF and Support close to him it’s 30% damage reduction and 30% damage buff + 10% of leader and 15% of sniper specialization perk of recon. Predator? Want some candy.
