he may not neccasarily mean expanding his kit to deal damage
i’m in the camp of giving the predator more optoins for dealing with FT as right now i think our problem (aside from a numbers issue which is somewhere between 20and 60% at least that’s how the PC elitist feel) is gear all gear aside from the medkit is bad none of them help at doing their job which is distracting the FT and controling the situation to keep it in the predators favor when it’s a 1v4 predator damage output and his hp and his gear he brings in is supposed to even the playing field and right now only 2 of these things carry their weight and all 3 of them is lacking against co-ordinated teams obv we can’t change his hp or dmg as those 2 are too tied at helping baddies who can’t equip specs and havn’t reached level 100 yet and miss 70% of their shots
so that means we have to put the MOST weight in limited use gear items or abilities (if they ever add them)
stuff like having an aoe grenade that disables parts of FT UI (such as radar or ammo counters)
having some method to draw ft fire away from himself like a dog whistle or drone
having a crowd control tool like making the netgun a gear item and making it a dedicated button like FT has so he can have the bow equipped for example and fire a netgun from it like how FT can have their guns equipped and throw grenades instantly
placing a jammer that gives the FT a false objective that attracts additoinal AI soldiers
i’d assume in good faith Fire isn’t asking for Predator to have a fucking smart gun that auto targets multiple FT
or a plasma canon that does 190+ damage on a full charge shot with 90 of it being splash dmg
and you can’t use the roof slam through walls as a good faith arguement for a time when pred was op when we still just AOE dmg people through walls even now because buildings are STILL a death trap for the predator
