Thoughts on Valkyrie?

Kinda of like a smart disc hammer minus the manaul control and a callback feature.

I fought her once today. Not entirely impressed. Its a far stretch to say any DLC for predator will provide as much as say JH or CH does in terms of unique-ness and the fealing of fighting something thats different. I have to say Viking was a bit crazy because of his girth and use of the axe, but not altogether threatening. Iā€™ll have to play more seasoned players who can use her more wisely.
So far i havenā€™t envountered her use the weapon, if i did i didnt quite get a good hard look.

Havenā€™t used the hammer yet but it needs stun/disorientation effect like blurry vision

That could work well too.

alright so basically as it stands right now Club/Axe/Hammer

are all glass canon weapons this shit if your running it on the classes with melee modifiers will legit down high hp FT members in 2-3 hits with fearless albeit you have to hit them which will never happen to players that are good but i suppose they fulfil a niche and you will probably die using them

just as an example a Viking+fearless axe heavy hit does 115+15 bleed
a no modifier hammer heavy strike does 90 so thatā€™s like 108 damage with both modifiers?
and we donā€™t talk about the War club

Aside from adding effects to these weapons i donā€™t think illfonic will be willing to buff them in anyway that isnā€™t a sidegrade at best cause i think the intention is that they are very high risk high reward where if the FT gets hit with this shit they are supposed to just die and itā€™s their fault

as remember if you break 200 damage every ft that doesnā€™t have some insane Defensive modifer (like LMS) dies

If your even half decent at parrying the hammer is cake walk my irl friend played this for first time today and a little ways into match he could parry my hammer everytime, except for l2 attack.

clearly your not supposed to use the light attack on the axe or hammer iā€™d hope only the most braindead players will do it after the first week

Yeeah I think the hammer and the axe are good for finishing off the ft when there or 1 or 2 members left, or if you can pull it off l2 and gtfo, the standard r2 is death wish in any situation.

It feels like Illfonic kinda fixed the tracking for the battle axe.

Iā€™m actually really loving the feeling of both Valkyrie and Norse Hammer, donā€™t know the actual practical use or viability though.

I will say though, Armor Patterns that literally no one uses like say Marine, Orge, Instinct, or Requiem look really good on Valkyrie because of how itā€™s incorporated. It looks like a decent, intricate paintjob instead of a bunch of slobs of random dashes and brushstrokes.

Im using silver currently, but overall a good dlc pred imo

I agree. Even though we actually did get cucked from Isabelle for whatever reason, this actually looks like a good update.

Plus PS Blog practically confirms that next Predator Character is Cleopatra, so R.I.P Mr.Black?

Probably one of the best class so far or THE class of the game, simply because of his health and perks and of course the speed that give him a fantastic boost and making her the best in my opinion predator in the game. i can run imp, fast hand and down range with her not talking about all the possible combinaison.

final opinion: she is pay to win and hell more than dear dutch 1987. But never forget people even the most powerfull is not dangerous in the hand of an unskilled player.

I feel like Mr.Black well be added with Isabelle it doesnā€™t make sense to add Isebelle but no Super Predator, but they also added City Hunter with no Harrigan, I do think they decided to wait to have it all together Gaunlet, Isabelle and Mr.Black.

Mark my words, fireteam will adapt as they always do.

4 heads think better than 1

That depends entirely if the team is working together cause on bad egg fucks over the entire team, and well it depends on skill and of a player as well, quality over quantity.

does she have melee passives

This is truešŸ¤£šŸ¤£

Is there a real update coming? Maps and game modes? Iā€™m calling bullshit on this ā€œextensive customizationā€ stuff.
