Predator: Hunting Grounds Loadouts - The Best Builds

In our guide to the Predator: Hunting Grounds loadouts we show you:

The best loadout for the Predator
The three best loadouts for the soldier team

In Predator: Hunting Grounds () the choice of equipment plays a big role. Not all weapons are equally strong and some passive abilities harmonize better with each other than others. We'll show you which loadouts are suitable for every match!

But before that, we would like to recommend our Predator: Hunting Grounds tips guide. There you will get helpful tips for the soldier team and the Predator. Our Predator: Hunting Grounds trophy guide will show you the way to the platinum trophy!

What is the best loadout for the Predator?

As a Predator, you have fewer customization options than you do with Soldiers. For example, you can 't modify your weapons. However, you are not bound to your teammates. This gives you more freedom in your approach to combat.

For the Predator, the following loadout has proven to be the best:

Class: Hunter
Primary weapon: Combistick
Secondary weapon: Net Cannon
Tools: Healing kits and bear traps
Passive 1 Downrange (More ranged weapon damage)
Passive 2 Fearless (More melee damage)
Passive 3: Big Bag (An additional use of equipment)

Although the Hunter is the default class, its balanced stats - stamina, health, equipment and speed - make it the best choice for any match. The Berserker can take a lot of punishment, but it's too slow. The scout class has too little health.

You can use the Combistick in close combat or throw it like a spear. The weapon is especially deadly in combination with the bear trap and the net cannon. Catch at least two enemies in nets and then attack the others with the Combistick. Drop soldiers in the bear trap with the combistick - usually one throw already kills the enemy.

"Downrange" and "Fearless" make the Combistick even more powerful due to the higher damage. The large bag allows you to carry a total of three bear traps and three healing kits. The healing kits are especially important because otherwise you'll have to rely on wild boars for health.

What are the best loadouts for the soldiers?

The soldiers already have a lot more choices in weapons and tools. However, you are much too weak as a single soldier - no matter how good your equipment is. Your loadout only really comes into its own when you work with the team.

You and at least two of your teammates should equip the following three loadouts:

The sniper: loadout for the scout

Class: Scout
Primary weapon: 7EN sniper rifle
Secondary weapon: 2XL revolver
Tools: Ammo pouch, thermal bait and smoke grenades
Passive 1: Yautja's Torment (Increases damage against the Predator)
Passive 2: OWFL Training (Decreases damage done by Predator)
Passive 3: Mudblood (Slower bleed out time)

This class specializes in fighting the Predator from a distance. Due to Yautja's chastisement, your shots also do additional damage. So save your sniper ammunition for Ranged combat with the Predator.

In close combat, you'll use your revolver. Throw smoke grenades or thermal decoys to escape Predator attacks - after all, as a sniper you will quickly become the Predator's focus.

The Tank: Loadout for the Supporter

Class: Supporter
Primary weapon: RP-103 machine gun
Secondary weapon: S-R3D Minigun
Tools: Stun grenade, frag grenade, ammo pouch
Passive 1: Thick Skin (Reduces damage received from all enemies)
Passive 2: Prepper (You start with extra ammo for the primary weapon)
Passive 3: Quick Release (Reloads weapons faster)

The tank dishes out a decent amount of damage and can also take quite a bit. Your goal is to pressure the Predator with continuous fire. For this purpose, take a machine gun and a minigun with you. If the magazine runs out during the fight, change weapons instead of reloading.

Take ammo pouches with you so that you can still reload later in the game. Blind the Predator with a stun grenade and then shoot him with the minigun. This way you'll empty his health bar in no time, especially since your teammates are also shooting at him.

The tactician: Loadout for the scout

Class: Scout
Primary weapon: G-Row assault rifle
Secondary weapon: ZR-55 submachine gun
Tools: Field sprayer, thermal lure, noisemaker
Passive 1: Pig in shit (mud stays longer)
Passive 2: Skilled (Higher interaction speed)
Passive 3: Double Time (Higher movement speed)

With the Tactician loadout, you counter "Strike & Flee" attacks. The Tactician build is thus designed for fast movement and mid-range combat. An assault rifle and a submachine gun as primary and secondary weapons guarantee high mobility with a moderate damage output.

Equips field sprayers, as the scout class has the least health of all classes. Use thermal lures and noisemakers when combat gets too dicey. The high movement speed is further increased by the double-time ability, which makes it even easier for you to escape from battles.

When each player uses the strengths of their loadout, even a skilled and perfectly equipped Predator will have trouble. As a sniper, you'll shoot at the Predator from a distance, while the tank will keep it from launching melee attacks. Tacticians draw attention to themselves in close combat, as they can flee the fastest.
