Awesome guide--and from watching you, I can see I'm grossly underusing the caster. I've used Berserk 90% of the time since I unlocked the class--and I usually kill 3-5 FT guys without before they call reinforcements and (usually) escape. Hopefully, some of your advice will start putting me over the edge. Also, if you don't mind: 1) Do you have any strong recommendations for using the disc? 2) I accidentally netted an NPC against a wall, is that possible with FT? 3) Is there a way to stop reinforcements after the call goes through? Thanks!
1 - For the Disc just make sure you have maximum horizontal and vertical sensitivity settings and make sure you only use it if you have good ping (no higher than around 80ms) ideal ping is 0-24ms. It depends a lot on what platform you are playing on also. Main thing is to practice the hell out of it. 2- Yes you can net Fireteam members to walls and also the floor if they are on low health. They can also be stealth killed whilst in this position if they have been downed enough times. 3- Yes, the way to do that, is you kill the Fireteam. I talk a lot more about that in my 'Guide to facing premade Fireteams' video and the best ways to go about it. - Also my advice, don't use Berserker. He is the worst Predator class in the game. I'd recommend using Hunter/Captured, City Hunter 97, Cleopatra, Elder as they are the best overall classes respectively. If you still want to play with a tanky class that is a bit better than Zerk I'd recommend Mr Black. But the biggest thing I can stress, is stop using melee. Use ranged weaponry, the Combistick, Bow, Hand Held Plasma Caster and Smart Disc are the only viable weapons against the best teams in the game, and if you get used to the tougher opposition, then you will be able to adapt against them and better yourself.
@@ja5onp00lx13 Thanks for the feedback, I played a few times since I watched your and you're definitely right about upping the controller sensitivity and using the caster a lot more. I haven't tested new settings on the disc just yet, but I think more practice is what's needed there. I just hit lv 100 yesterday, so I guess I've been over-estimating how helpful my tank's bullet-sponginess is versus their mobility--since I only switched to Zerk bcuz I felt like my hunter/scouts were getting shredded when I first started. My main Zerks are on Savage, w/Bow and Combi-stick, w/Long jump, Fearless, and usually some energy support perk--the other has axe and disc, w/Impenetrable and fearless. But I only started looking up stuff and trying to play more like you recommend a little while ago instead of staying dumb and rushing everything down. So I'm for sure going to get Mr.B to modify my Zerk game and City Hunter, as I start taking my Hunter builds back off the bench. Thanks again!
@@kingsridge it's my pleasure and if you have any other questions or want any more tips I'm here. Best way to adapt to using lower health classes is to become harder to hit. I between Bow shots sprint in zig zaggy lines and jump. Always be moving.
Awesome, I’ll have to give this a try
