Predator Classes Tier Listed & Ranked
If it could be, what level would we be talking about or is that determined by knowing the right moment when attacking the objectives. Or it could be that they have so much experience in the game, but the game is so broken with gameplay. Even so, I would like to play with people with expertise to try

You mean what kind of situations is Berserker with Axe & Net Gun efficient in?
Either against bad players or in a 1v1 situation. Berserker isnāt a good class for melee or ranged. Heās just a bullet sponge. If you play against Elite players or even just moderately decent players you will at the very least have a hard time, and at worst get incinerated within the first 10 seconds of your first engagement & you wonāt be able to run away because youāll have wasted all your stamina swinging a melee weapon.
I have won Private Matches against good players with Berserker before but thatās moreso a testament of skill as opposed to Berserker being a good class, not in a big-headed way or anything. Itās just the reality of the situation. Plus I was using ranged weapons, not melee.
Berserker has way too many weaknesses & practically zero strengths that actually hold any weight behind them. Yes he has high health & max gear, but he is slow, has low stamina, low energy, low perk points, and no meta specialisations. There are also other classes with high health & high gear who have much better speed, stamina, perk points, specialisations & energy, so there is quite literally no reason to use Berserker besides nerfing/challenging yourself.
I simply cannot bring myself to use Berserker, even to meme around like I do with my Scout. I had a glitched Zerker Ghost for awhile, tried to play with Adrenal to help with my stamina issues, it still sucked. Heās just unplayable, heās like DBDās Freddy but even he is getting a rework lol. And with that passive where he takes extra melee damage in a world where knife rushing with a broken Dutch is the new thing to do, youāre asking to get sent back to the menu screen a soon as you load in and find the FT.

Well I suppose the savage perk is somewhat useful if you like killing ft one at a time from rangeā¦saves a couple pigs and stimsā¦sure beserkers slow and not worth it but killing ft members and regening to full hp sounds like a win either ways especially with hook or axe for heavy attack or katana for the constant bleeding effect or even a good timed slam or for god sake a bear trapā¦thatās what sounds good to me anywaysā¦probably knowhere as good as what I think as Iām nothing on this game but whateverā¦āitās just a video game at the end of the dayā xXpreddymommaXx - 2025
Berserkerās only legitimately viable Specialisation is Enraged because it makes his speed & stamina a bit more palatable. Savage is simply pointless because if youāre quick claiming Fireteam members you will get melted by their teammates & if youāre going back to dead Fireteam corpses youāre just wasting time getting 20ish% health back when you could just kill & eat a Boar & get 90-100% health back. Brute is the worst because you never want to be getting parried in the first place & Iām pretty sure I heard someone say that Brute Specialisation doesnāt even work anyway. Not sure whether that part was true or not.
But either way he is by far the worst class in the game. Like I said, he isnāt well-suited to Melee or Ranged Combat & he has far too many drawbacks.
Berserker is only legitimately viable if you are playing against potatoes, because literally anything can work against the potatoes of this gameās playerbase.
Whatās worse (or better), Berserker or Viking?

Yh I donāt like playing as Berserker either. I just did it for a challenge. Same how I use Falconer, Exiled & Chopper in Privates from time to time & win, except I actually like playing those classes. Heck, Iāve never really liked playing as Berserker even back when he was good in 2020. I always preferred Scout back then & then Elder when he came out.
Yh tbf Freddy just got a rework in DBD & heās actually pretty cracked now if you play him right. I managed to get a solid win streak going & Iām nothing special at DBD.
Yh Berserker may have 250 more health than Hunter but it doesnāt really matter up close if people are using Dutch 87 & Berserker takes more Melee Damage passively anyway. He will be able to take maybe 1 more knife attack in practice Iād estimate depending on the builds. But regardless he canāt run away if you blast all his Stamina mashing Melee so heās just ineffective all round.

Viking is a lot better than Berserker. Heās above Berserker on the Tier List for good reason.
He may be slower & have worse Stamina basekit but with Enraged Specialisation you can close the gap a fair bit & because he has 12 Perk Points (Berserker only has 9) you can run Large Pouch, Medic & Adrenal Boost. Then he has comparable Stamina to Hunter/Jungle Hunter/Captured or maybe even slightly better if I remember correctly due to the Enraged & Adrenal Boost combo.
Heās still not a particularly good class though obviously.

Scout was always better. I remember back when Zerker was OP with the combi, that plus the slam was like the meta at the time. When I first started playing I was using BTLās Zerker builds and it did do the job at the time, but I always preferred Scoutās speed or Hunterās versatility. And yeah, thatās why I get excited when I find a Zerker in pubs cuz I know they take more melee damage and typically like to wristblade spam, so my slashy Dutch 87 is perfect for those thicc bois.
Also I never really got into DBD. I tried like twice and it just felt weird and super overcomplicated. I guess I was too used to PHG and its simplified gameplay.
And about the Viking, thatās interesting to know. I might make a Viking with those perks to run in pubs and just terrorize the kids. I run a Captured so Iām used to that kind of speed, though honestly after playing Wolf, Scout and Amazon these last few months Iām used to being super fast. Switching to Captured feels so sluggish.

As The Mr Black main, I will never empathise with this statement speed-wiseš¤£
I will also never understand why Mr Black is that damn slow in this game. In the movie he literally dodges bullets.
I kinda get what you mean though in terms of Stamina. We need more Predator classes with Tracker Specialisation that are actually good. Iām forced to run Jungle Hunter Tracker in 99% of public matches because people just hide from me & I just run Large Pouch, Medic, Adrenal Boost atp. If Scar still had Tracker like back in the day when he released then we wouldnāt have this problem.
Iām still in the boat of We Want Tracker Predator! because if they gave him the stats etc. That I did on my class concept for him, he would be cracked as hell.
Yh personally I used to watch CYSZ Gaming back in the day. He was pretty much the only PHG content creator who was good at the game & a Scout main like myself. Shifo was another good one who mained Elder. Canāt stand BTL. After I saw BTL die in a public match against players who I had effortlessly slaughtered, I knew he was nowhere near as good as he liked to portray.
But yeah I still run Scout in Privates sometimes too. In fact I think one of the more recent times, I caused people to think I was hacking somehow because I kept winning with Scoutš¤£

EXACTLY. Black is supposed to be a Super Predator, he should have some insane speeds, you would think. At least comparable to Wolf. But yes, more Preds with Tracker would be so good, especially if they have a bit more stat buff compared to the Hunter class. Iām hoping Anubis will come with it, and he seems to be using the thinner model so he might be pretty speedy. I noticed you donāt run the damage buff perks like Down Range or Fearless, is that a better way to play Pred, to just rely on the default damage and emphasis stamina?
I watched some CYSZ Gaming way back when too along with BTL, and definitely noticed the skill difference. I started to move away from BTL once I started seeing people like CYSZ and Sam in his early days, honestly I havenāt watched a BTL video in probably four years. Lol did he call those players cheaters? If I recall he tended to do that when he lost, Iām actually surprised he uploaded a video of him losing, he didnāt use to do that.
This is a match I ran last week with Scout, the guys on the mic at the start were very doubtful that a Scout of all things would give them much trouble. How do you run Scout, is it similar to mine, just more ranged focused?

Yeah Mr Black & Tracker both quite literally dodged bullets at close & mid range from Royceās AA-12 Shotgun & Nikolaiās M134 Minigun in the camp & they are both noticeably bigger than Falconer, so he would logically be even faster than them as he is smaller & lighter. Falconer should be the fastest Predator in the game IMO. Mr Black should at least have the Movement Speed of Hunter, with Tracker having around the same speed as Scout perhaps. I should probably revist my Tracker concept but oh well.
Mr Black should also have different specialisations IMO. Stalker or Analytic alongside Tracker & Vicious would be more movie accurate while keeping his current best spec of Vicious. Heck, all 3 Super Predators should have the Tracker spec tbh. If only I could rework the damn Predator classes.
I am going to make no predictions on Anubis because I will probably end up jinxing it. The lore leak statement portrays him as a very dangerous Hunter but Iāll believe it when I see it.
No I run Down Range all the time. It just depends which class Iām using a lot of the time. When Iām playing Privates I use Large Pouch, Medic, Down Range on Jungle Hunter Tracker for example. I just run Adrenal Boost instead of Down Range in Publics like I showed in that other example because I never really need the damage buffs against potatoes & Iād rather be able to get across the map quicker to speed run the boring games or prevent people from running off to hide in the first place. With Viking itās just best to use that Perk combination I mentioned earlier because Large Pouch & Medic is pretty much the meta standard duo of perks & Adrenal Boost is kinda mandatory on Viking if you want to win, and it synergises well with Enraged spec so itās all about neutralising the weakness of that class & turning it into a strength.
Itās a similar concept with Cleopatra. Without Adrenal Boost, she feels like one of the slow tanky Predators in terms of Stamina, but when you give her Adrenal Boost, she feels like a Scout. And then Iād rather merge Large Pouch & Medic alongside it than just Down Range. Large Pouch doesnāt tend to synergise too well without Medic. You donāt create enough pressure on the Fireteam as consistently otherwise because you take too long to heal, and if you donāt have Medic you should be prioritising healing from pigs if possible anyway. She is a very high pressure, high aggression class. You can also play her like a tankier Elder Stalker if you run Dithered Lens, Down Range, Modified Reserve but I prefer the high mobility, high aggression playstyle with her. I donāt know why people were so surprised back in the day when I told them my Cleopatra Stalker didnāt have Down Range, I just told them I didnāt need it, and sure enough, I donātš
If you want a Ranged Predator with maximum damage output then run Celtic Assassin or Wolf Assassin with Down Range. If you hit someone directly in the back with a fully charged Caster shot, Iām pretty sure they will always go down regardless of the class except for maybe the odd Dante or Support. I canāt remember the exact damage numbers but anything that doesnāt have at least 170 health is getting one-shotted. Heck, sometimes the odd Combistick throw to the back can one-shot someone with Assassin + Down Range. Assassin does 20% extra damage while Stalker & Analytic do 15% extra damage. Stalker is still the best of those 3 Specialisations but Assassin isnāt bad by any means. In fact Iād say Assassin is more viable than Analytic nowadays.
It does depend on the class though & also personal preference as to what you want to run in most cases. If youāre wondering for other specific classes then I can elaborate on them further.
I usually just run the following on Scout:
Specialisation - Analytic
Weapons - Combistick & Plasma Pistol
Gear - Healing Kit & Motion Detectors
Perks - Large Pouch, Medic & either Down Range or Impenetrable
