1.) Humans are a varied species, many are weak and frail, but some are strong and determined. Probing tactics can prove very effective on Humans, culling the weak and moronic into hiding whereas provoking the strong or foolhardy into honorable engagement, probing tactics would involve acts such as observing from a distance, engaging in 'near hit' attacks, and otherwise aggravating the Humans in an attempt to find worthy prey. Cain believes in honor above everything else and honoring the dead who have proven worthy so with that being said he strives to bring honor to his clan in the means of worthy trophies. He carefully selects his targets based on their threat level and if it would bring honor.
Since some individual humans can be proven to be of strong stock, either by honorably engaging me in combat and proving to be of good fighting form, or those who have performed extraordinarily well in surviving and fighting the xenomorphs against all odds is considered a worthy prey, and once my worthy prey will be retrieved or they�re trying to steal away from me, that specific marines/friends who tried to save my worthy prey during the hunt is considered unworthy, meaning to say there will be no restrictions of weapon, cloak-killing and and ranged weapons are permitted.
No permitted? Because most marines when trying to save the life of the worthy prey during the hunt, (observation) they will probably engage and do everything they could to avenge their fellow marine. Kill us even, whatever it takes (based on my observation) and that�s the only way to save yourself, engage in a fight with them (unworthy) in the same time doing a MRP/HRP. And I�m aware that groups of humans are a major threat, but tactics can be employed to thin the herd, traps, near hits, false leads during the hunt and similar can serve to divide a group of humans.
2.) Xenomorphs are a highly dangerous foe who are linked to a homogeneous hivemind, if ever I scout their exterior lines and attempt to find either individual or groups of xenomorphs that would be worthy prey to hunt. If ever I come up with that situation i�ll do the last resort, to self-destruct because it is considered greatly dishonorable for my body to be captured and my gear/technology looted especially from the humans. The most honorable death is bracer self-destruct and must only be done whenever my death or capture is near. (Must do HRP before doing self-destruct) Other method, if I get infected, I should attempt to die in combat or have another hunter take my life. In case both are impossible, or if I wish, I can die by my own hand.
(Minor note, if I do Self Destruct I would likely set up a macro (RP) to warn players I am about to do so (Unknown begins manipulating their wrist mounted controller! It begins to beep meanincingly!), unless I am literally surrounded by ten xenomorphs I would like to warn people I am about to explode)
3.)
Another notable thing is the fact that the Predator likes solitude when he isn't currently stalking prey, he will very rarely converse with humans and his own kin unless it was something very important. Prey claiming, potential Abomination risk from a captured predator, dishonorable prey and the death of another Yautja will most likely pull a response out of him. Most of his communications will be either by custom emotes or very few words by mouth or translator. Risking to board the Shipside to retrieve a Yautja corpse or gear if it's really important but predators should only be ascending to the Shipside for gear-related missions because heading up to use it as an additional hunting ground is strictly forbidden. Yautja should not be heading up to the Shipside for a conference with command but to get the only purpose, to retrieve the gear. And as Yautja, we need to make sure when trying to retrieve something is strictly limited to planetside gear unless a team of at least two hunters wishes to go up to the Shipside to recover it. A single hunter is thus unable to go recover gear on the Shipside because this is due to the fact that gear on the shipside can simply be recovered either when the marines go into cryo or when the ship crashes into the planet. If single predator is only left during the gear recovery, they must abandon it.
