Oh but they’re the cleanest, best pleasure.
Predator Classes Tier Listed & Ranked
In several points he is right, I realized with the mobility thing it is evident that he does not run much, he is only useful in engagements when the team is activating alarms left and right, these are frequently people who do not know the role or how to avoid going unnoticed, even though The noise of their weapons is already enough for the predator to appear. In my case I use it for the public
due to the casual factor. But in private I go with Amazon for a personal challenge and improve playability since I consider myself new to this game even though I have learned a lot from good teams that I have had to encounter, I try to get the most out of a challenge and earn experience points.
I just played like four matches with Cleo, and oh my god I don’t know how you do it. Her energy is shit, and even with adrenal she feels so slow. I went up against an Xbox premade and then i assume a mixed premade that all carried ammo bags and spammed grenade launchers and rockets and both teams made my life hell lol. I won, one guy escaped on the latter match, but fucking barely my syrettes were spent. The last two matches had some good shooters but weren’t as difficult as the first two. Yeah man I don’t know how you’re able to beat Sam and them with her, she’s rough to use at least for me.
What’s your sensitivity at btw? Was having trouble quick shotting as well and just trying to lead my shots in general. Horiz/verti is maxed, ADS horiz/verti is like a little more than a quarter to max, I keep it low for FT but always have to jack it up for Pred.
Her Energy isn’t shit😂it’s higher than Hunter but it just isn’t as high as the likes of Scar or Bionic.
Because she doesn’t have quite as high energy as Scar & Bionic you have to rely on good aim with Combistick throws & Plasma Pistol and you have to manage your energy better.
You know she is faster than Hunter/JH/Captured right? And with Adrenal Boost she has what I would say is probably a slight amount better Stamina than Scar. I don’t really understand how you can be fine playing the likes of Captured & not feel any mobility issues, but think Cleo is slow😂
Try to get the idea that she is slow out of your head. Sometimes it can be a mental block that makes you think a class is a certain way when it isn’t due to preconceived notions.
When I play Cleo, in practice, it’s basically like playing Scar with a small amount more health & higher mobility (Stamina wise) in favor of more energy.
I am still yet to encounter a single legitimately good Xbox Fireteam player, let alone team. But yeah as far as grenades & shit go, I was playing Privates last night pretty much exclusively as Mr Black & Falconer trying out some new builds, and people had to resort to stacking Dutch 87 Leaders & spamming grenades constantly in an attempt to halt my 25+ match win streak. It was absolutely ridiculous how a single impact grenade could take 15+% of Mr Black’s 1500 health. I found it even more stupid coz I couldn’t stop thinking back to the movie where he literally tanks a cluster of frag grenades at point blank range & was pretty damn near completely unaffected. In the end it pissed me off that people were crutching so I just brought Celtic Assassin, Cleo Stalker & Scar Stalker, and not long after that people decided they’d had enough for the night😁😂
Just gotta get used to the class I suppose man. I mean in all fairness I’ve only really seen the likes of me & Sam have consistent success with Cleo. I guess it’s kinda like the Mr Black situation with me. Other Elite players have often told me Mr Black & Cleo are my strongest classes. It may just be a stylistic thing. For example, I know Pirate is statistically better than Mr Black, Elder & Wolf, but I prefer playing the other 3 because they have better overall Stamina with the builds I run.
I can’t remember off the top of my head so just message me on PSN & I’ll send you a screenshot of my sensitivities & controller mapping.
her and elder’s are ok but since they dont have infinite thermal like some dlc classes it feels like its lower
it wasnt my full team, I only had Gesp and those games it was due to traps mainly, when nobody got trapped at the start we won
if you time the traps right you can end matches easy, like:
first game I wiped thunder, gesp, voka, alan in 1 minute due to 2 lucky traps with City Hunter, removing 1 or 2 fts fairly easy at start can make a lot of difference
and with cleo
how much you practice with traps? as pred, tactics and positioning matter a lot, like I can even make Exiled work in privates due to that:
Disciplined + traps can work very well in some situations, Bionic would be best option for that
Yh ofc it’s better to ambush with traps at the start of the game if you’ve got them. I don’t want to get into a firefight with 4 PC Fireteam members. Especially not when there’s a Dutch 87 Leader or a Dante Fanatic. When you get an ambush right & get someone out of the game early it evens the odds a bit because it’s a lot easier to fight 2 or 3 Fireteam members than it is to fight 4 at the same time. Especially when the Fireteam can just sit in a camp & hear wherever you’re coming from. That’s why I always say the first engagement of the game is often the most important. Lack of balancing makes the Predator more or less fucked in a 1v4 situation almost every time unless they use Battle IQ & Tactics. And by this logic, ⅗ of the ambushes worked.
They weren’t lucky traps. It was a good ambush.
It’s also harder for the Predator now because the Fireteam can hear exactly where the Plasma Caster is charging from every time. It forces the Predator to play smarter. Especially if you’re a PS Predator against a PC Fireteam.
yea but it was mainly due to traps not the class, could be cleo, scar, pirate, result would be same
thats what i was telling him, it doesnt matter if its cleo or not, its just due to traps
depends on how good the 4 ft players are, if you only got 2-3 actually paying attention its different
It was lucky that they were distracted to the point they didnt saw and shoot them, as they did on the matches after,
Sure but then that works when ft players dont pay attentions to their surroundings, when the traps were destroyed before, the match went to ft favor despite the weak link on the fireteam
Well yh, I’ve done the same things to people with all kinds of classes.
It also depends how good the Predator is
Exactly. It was a good ambush where the distraction & weakness was exploited by the Predator & the Predator capitalised on it.
Yh, because it’s a lot harder to fight 4 Fireteam members than it is to fight 3 or 2. Even if the Predator is attacking the worst player on the team, it means the 3 better players on the team are the ones lighting him up, so they still have to be efficient regardless of who they are attacking. It’d be more or less the same if I attacked Gesp first, he’s the best player on the team so he’s the hardest to hit & kill, which makes up for other players not having the best aim etc.
If I attack the weak link, it’s easier to kill them but I have less time to do it because I’d have the 3 stronger players nuking me with bullets & grenades. If I attack the strongest link, I have more time to kill them, but they will be harder to hit & down. 1v4 situation is always harder for the Predator.
It is different when there isnt a weak link on the fireteam, also when they arent making so many mistakes, you cant rely on traps when the all ft is waiting for it
Yeah, that’s why adaptation under the circumstances is needed.
I think I was just off my game hard and didn’t notice the differences and similarities to other classes like you said, like it was at 3am and I was dead. It just felt like my reaction times were sluggish and I had such poor aim when usually with Scout and Amazon they’re more fluid. The ridiculous grenade spamming did not help either, I was constantly in motion. I don’t think I’m used to the class, as you said. I’ll have to practice with her more.
And @Samhain13 I don’t use traps much at all, that’s another big problem. Cuz I see you and Voorhees using them at the start and getting some quick killls that even the odds. Another thing to practice.
Try her with Stalker, Fearless and Elder sword or War club, it is fun.
war club is on the same dog-shit level as norse hammer, dunno what your talking bout
I have beaten very strong teams using my build as Cleo. A Melee build isn’t good for facing good players unless you’re running Amazon Ghost with Sickle, and even that is still not the most advisable game plan.
I said fun… not best build to beat strong teams.
I know, and I have fun when I’m beating good players.
I want all of the money, give all of your honey,
I’m the master of disaster, Im my own worst enemy!
Why u hate movie scar so much lol
