Overview

Predators are savage warriors of the frozen wilds, a special brand of arctic phantom drawn to this world from another. From knives carved of the bones of the fallen to the dominated wild beasts who rise to their call, the tools of the Predator exemplify their fierce dedication to self-reliance. Though a Predator's knifeplay focuses primarily on destroying a victim's limbs, they also have access to a very capable affliction based offense through flung darts and venoms. Predators are excellent hunters, especially if they've slain others recently (AB APEX), dishing out significant damage with a particular emphasis on critical hits due to their three-or-four-hit combos.

Skills

Knifeplay is the mainstay of a Predator's arsenal, featuring a range of attacks from the signature sitara knife, as well as introducing the concept of stances (AB STANCES). Most knifeplay attacks will move the Predator from one stance to another, with each stance having a different effect. This is the foundation of the hallmark complexity of Predator combat.
