Which xeno castes are best for fighting preds?

General Discussion

hi guys ive both been killed by xenos as pred and killed preds as xeno, normal castes without external help other than weeds the only ones worth mentioning are zerker rav, vamp lurker, warrior and vanguard, everything else doesnt have the HP, stuns or dps to reliably kill a pred before they kill them

Other castes that are semi competent are spitter, base prae and crusher, these few can do notable damage but will more than likely lose, everything else is basically cannon fodder and wont get close assuming they are similar skill level

Oh yeah and dancer isnt good, you have a huge sprite and no shield/lifesteal, just pick vanguard

How often have Runners solo killed Preds?

The short answer is none - it entirely depends on who has lower ping and can click better. If a pred is at least semi-competent then you’re cooked as pred mobs are deathsquad mobs using mele weapons.

Ive seen runners and lurkers clown on preds and preds soloing ravagers/warriors. Also you need the insider knowledge to always target head.

In other words learn to click better on the mach 2 unstunnable, slow-immune 200% of your health supposedly 6ft tall and menacing sprite thats the size of a lesser drone. And pray the pred is a RP main.

probably once? Honestly historic event if it happened, but a pred runner fight where the runner wins is probably taking more than any clip software’s maximum video length

It used to happen fairly frequently, probably not much these days due to balance changes.
