Which deathsquads are the strongest?

Out of all the deathsquads, what do you think is the strongest? Including new predator deathsquad.

My personal opinion:

My reasoning:

  • Whiteout has synthetic durability, can shoot while cloaked. Has giga flamers, etc. Massive damage and durability.
  • Military caste isn’t merged yet, but will have good durability, cloaking, and preds have BS instastun guns so that’s a plus for them.
  • Marine raider and WY are likely similar, but marine raider smartgun has much better damage so i’m giving it to marine raider.
  • UPP Kommando CAN go invisible, but they can’t shoot while invisible like whiteout can, and they don’t even get HEAP so I’m putting them at the bottom.

What do you think?

Honestly, I’d put the UPP Kommando in D tier. They’re at a huge disadvantage to any marine with NVGs and can reasonably be fought by marines, I’d hardly even classify them a deathsquad.

Whiteout. Pred has not been merged. Will change this should I encounter the Pred Deathsquad.

Kommandos are Deathsquad in name only.

Some people dont quite understand how good kommandos deathsquad is, if you rely on your cloak then you are doing something wrong, your gun has a burst fire comparable to that of marsoc which is the best in the game, shoots 4 bullets per burst and has a build in 2x scope, you can basically control any fight youre in with good positioning, it is the highest skill floor out of the bunch and requires you to know how to play with burst fire.

Marsoc and WY are not even on the same level, marsoc get ceramic plates, better guns, stims, autoshotguns and all of them have NVGs, WY just have decent armour, good nades and thats about it.

I doubt that the military caste will even stand a chance against current whiteout, years ago an old whiteout squad was capable of taking out a full ship of preds during an event, now they have better equipment and cloaking snipers, they are that dominant in gameplay

I get you. It seems Kommando has a higher skill level. If you are good you are VERY lethal.

Whiteout clears every single other ERT.
Their only disadvantage is EMP’s which nobody carries.The sniper whiteout has a scout cloak that lets them shoot while invisible and they can move around. (They also get a M39/B2 with HEAP). You literally will not notice them until you die. The whiteout flamer will 1 tap you.
And don’t forget that the skillset for whiteout is literally maxxed on *every skill
*
The other ERT’s are good it’s just that whiteout is so inflated with skill, gear, and weapons that it blows every other deathsquad to dust. About the other ones, I’d say MARSOC is better than kommandos because of the lower skill ceiling to use it’s gear & they get HEAP.

Freelancers weren’t labeled as a deathsquad in the code so I didn’t think of it.

What’s even the chance for any of them spawning to begin with? ERTs have a broad pool to pick from if there is no admeme intervention.

whiteout is absolutely the most absurd deathsquad with whiteout commandos being legitimately round-ending threats solo

Elite Freelancers have a chance to appear after the Almayer docks with a station during hijack. Outside of that both versions of Deathsquads are admin only.

Once I saw an admin use a whiteout soldier in order to protect corrupt hive from a badblood on the ship. (Bad bloods used to be allowed to enter the ship, and marines had zero capability to remove them.)

Military caste has been merged, has anyone fought them? How tough are they?
