I've been playing around in my Predator recently and I have a few questions that I know some of you can answer:

First off, since the new TTK update and such, has the firing speed (RoF) of the Breacher increased or stayed the same_ If I am going to die faster than before, then I would at least want to get some shots in instead of having my Primary hang uselessly at my side. (Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to complain about the new TTK.)

Secondly, what is the current effective range of the Breacher_ It's obviously not a long range weapon, but I thought that it at least had mid-range capabilities. I find it doing it's best in CQC, but I would like to see it become a little more versatile, considering that the EOC Pred is  very, very limited to what it can do besides laying traps (Which, by the way, are a hell of a lot of fun).

Third, do you think the EOC Pred should have increased projectile speed_ Or do you think it should stay limited to what it was built for, and remain the way it is_ (I personally think there could be a slight increase in movement.)

And lastly, what are your opinions on this mech_ Is it overpowered, under-powered, or balanced_ What adjustments do you think should be made, if any_ How skilled are you with this mech_


Thanks for any feedback bros.

in my opinion the armor is a lil weak and the eoc repeater could shoot faster. The eoc predator could pack a lil more punch too. Or even better, have a different mode in which you charge the eoc predator and it shoots 5 mines at once.

Hi Trych,

  The Predator is probably one of the weaker mechs out there but one of the most fun.  
Good players can efffectively duel or ambush w/ it (but they could do the same w/ other mechs too).
As for tweaks, I think a slight decrease in heat generation for EOC and Breecher would be good.
I also believe Hellfires shouldn't be able to lock on to mech when cloaked.  

The Breecher is effectively a secondary weapon so I'm fine w/ it having a longer cooldown.  
As for range, if you look at the radar, it's radius is about 120m.  Targets that are halfway from you or closer are ideal for hitting w/ the Breecher flak.
