valkyrie shadow nerf.

#7

If your wondering why I say 8 it’s b cause so far they have a predator corresponding to eac predator trophy and that is including any potential movie predator as well so they are easily going to add even more than we have now

If she has been shadow nerfed, can’t say I’m surprised. Like, at all. Anything to protect the precious FT.

Sometime soon we should do another test of rounds to kill with the QR-4 to see the current effective health distributions, like this old post here.

#10

Alright I’m down.
If im not doing anything il help test out for a lil while

#11

I have a paper due tonight and a test tomorrow, but, if I catch you online, I’ll send you an invite to test this shit out.

#12

Aight cool.

#13

Also they’re never going to answer you. No shadow nerf has been officially acknowledged. Seems pretty chicken shit to me, and it’s the number one problem plaguing this game IMO (constant FT asswiping).

I completely agree.
Seriously. Wish they would.

#15

Honestly I feel no change

same when supposedly armor was buffed… I felt absolutely no change

#16

I felt valkyrie had good damage resistance.
Now she just feels like shes made out of paper which sucks.

I was enjoying preds finally feeling decent.
Oh well.
Ft takes priority for illfonic what else is new.

#17

dunno man. been using her since it came out and I feel no difference

#18

No way to know for sure since ilfonic wouldnt tell us.

I’m not even 100% it just really feels that way.
Oh well not too big a deal at this point.

Just hope pred gets some new cool stuff soon.
For all classes.

#19

I’d say more varied weapons. It gets boring having to rely on spamming the plasma caster to wear down FT in order to win

That and actually good gear.
Good traps and tech that isnt easily dealt with like everything pred has.

I’ve been saying it since like December, I really really want a good trapper and summoner class.

Also mods for every weapon.
Different elemental and cc effects.

Here’s what I suspect happens:

• Illfonic releases a DLC which has very, very good stats (a subtle ‘pay-to-win’ setup). People buy it because they want the most powerful character (despite it not really being a Pred, more of a space Viking).

• Knowing that this character is OP, they shadow nerf it in subsequent updates. Because they don’t release detailed info on the attributes of each class or DLC, they can get away with this.

• Repeat for next DLC character and count $

I’d hope that’s not the case. I don’t think any Pred DLC has been pay to win (an argument could be made for city hunter maybe). As far as FT I don’t think Dutch 87 and Dante have been nerfed at all.
I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt

#24

I don’t think they give stats to a DLC which are blatantly super OP - just a subtle set of attributes which makes them more useful than most, if not all other classes - thus an added incentive to buy for those who aren’t as easily swayed by cosmetic re-skins and a new melee animation. Then when people start complaining about the fact these characters have become the meta if you want to win, they ‘tweak’ the attributes in the following update to make them more balanced.

Not a bad idea, though I wouldn’t personally want it in the game.

#26

Hmm…build the Predator to your style instead of pick the Predator of your style? Interesting…
