Predator Bow leaves red indicator

#1

Probably the weapon that should be the most stealthiest leaves a red trail when shot at full strength please fix this.

I dont think this needs to be fixed at all it’s still hard to track where the first even second and 3rd shot came from if you space your shots and shoot when they arnt looking if they wasn’t a trail then it would be just OP you could just stand still and drain shots all day long the fire team wouldn’t stand a chance me on multiple occasion have downed 3 of the 4 with the bow without being spotted

Its a bow though it shouldn’t leave a trial at all. I can understand the plasma gun leaving a trail because its using energy but the predators arrows are made of steal or some special alloy.

There has to be some kind of balance tho bro or it would just be way to over powered I get what your saying and it makes sense but there has to be some kind of balance

should not have a trail, the stealth is already shotty as it is… you dont need even MORE tracers back to wear the pred is smh

at this point fighting against a predator is a joke. His suppose to be stealthy not give away his position. Here’s what the Predator has to deal with. Loud foot steps, He makes noises when cloaked, You can still see him even when his invisible. He leaves a trial of leaves even when said tree doesn’t have any. At this point he should just give up hunting.

The red trail barelly gives away the position of the Predator, maybe the general direction but not the exact location as the Plasma Caster. The FT could barely notice me when I used the bow.
If the main problem is the Predator not being as stealthy, then is very likely that they will fix some things in the next patch.

I’ve actually never had problems with the bow when I strike the fireteam panics having no idea where the shot came from and it should be used from a good distance so as to keep it that way

Well usually when i have been shot at with the bow and couldn’t see the trail of the arrow i check the arrow which direction it came from based where it landed

Thankfully it’s not always easy to do so as it’s hard to tell where the arrow lands since it goes through enemies, that would actually be an interesting mechanic with the arrow or staff throw when it goes through it causes a temporary bleeding status

the red trail is fine. holy fucking shit lol

i thought the trail is blue. the light that glows up is red. can the fireteam see that?

I think most of the time they HEAR the location of the humming sound, just like they hear the sound of the clicking when ur cloaked, then they shoot randomly or just spam spotting untill they randomly get you.

everything the pred does is so loud that even the pred cant hear his prey cuz of his own bloody sounds. i have to have it so loud to hear the prey that my ears are bleeding when i run…
