Why even go as Scout or Recon?

Health is very important imho.
So those two classes arent even viable, or are they?
I mean only if you play in a premade team I guess.
U are squishy…no go against a predator that takes one out 1:1…

Shotty is buffed with Scout.
Recon slightly extends the spotting and has passive camo duration increase.

Both of them run faster than assault, allowing you to dodge easier.

i just had a match and i lost my mask in a few hit from a recon

Mmm, I pretty much exclusively play Recon. Here are my thoughts:

I’m on PC so I’m pretty quick to spot Predz in the trees/wherever. I play it because imo, having extra mud duration is something I’d prefer over HP. I use the “Pig in Mud” perk in conjunction for what I believe would = longest mud duration. Not being spotted by the Predator first is much more viable in my eyes because I can watch where It’s headed and get a good vantage point to nail It in the head a number of times with a Sniper Rifle. Lately I’ve been smacking it’s mask off pretty quick.

Recon isn’t as squishy as Scout. I play Recon how I believe it should be played to gain advantage - I’m sure Scout players that use their mobility and quick weapon switching are also playing them well to gain advantage.

Last match, playing as Pred, I got suprised by how one shot from their sniping recon took away my last HP. Usually I can take quite a few more bullets with the HP I had left, but that shot took me down, to the head I suppose. o_O
That fucker hurt like hell. Glad he downed me when I was on a roof so I could set off the nuke. :D

Why are you saying it was recon?
Anyone can use a sniper rifle.

Recon does NOTHING to increase the damage from sniper rifles.

as they all said faster,easier camping and dodges as well perks

I’m saying it was recon because it was a recon. I never said he’d have any sort of bonus because of his class. Not sure where you got that from.
