Mortal Kombat Xl Predator Fatalities
Bartley Trowbridge
The Predator is a guest character introduced in Mortal Kombat X as a crossover with the homonymous franchise. Member of an alien race that worships the art of hunting, the Predator has descended on Earthrealm looking for worthy opponents. He does not wish to conquer or destroy, but to purely challenge in mortal kombat the finest warriors the realms have to offer.
Even the Elder God Shinnok fell under the might of the Predator, who claimed his amulet for trophy. The artifact put him before an unexplored path of limitless potential: Sorcery. With all of creation as his hunting grounds and unable to be stopped, he had become the Apex Predator.
Attack Potency: At least Large Building level+ (Killed Shinnok, Raiden, Fujin, Sub-Zero and Johnny Cage. Became even more powerful through Shinnok's Amulet and hunted down Mileena, Goro and Kotal Kahn with great ease. Was said to having become unstoppable across all realms[5])
Lifting Strength: Class K (Ripped off Shinnok's spine[5] and does it consistently to other opponents[6] which requires such levels of force. Can also rip off heads, as seen when performing El Diablo)
Intelligence: At least Gifted (A seasoned warrior hailing from a race that makes hunting --and killing-- for sport and honor their reason of life.[7] His collection of hunting trophies features the skulls of a variety of creatures,[6] meaning he owns a remarkable record of victories. Overcame Shinnok, Raiden, Fujin, Sub-Zero and Johnny Cage all together. Discovered the secrets of Shinnok's Amulet and used them to gain new powers and enhance his weapons. Then, he proceeded to decimate whole worlds single-handedly[5] In just a matter of seconds, he is able to completely skin people or even clear their whole body down to the skeleton)
I've decided to make this thread to detail exactly which Premier Towers in the Living Towers can spawn a Secret Fight for the Keep it Secret trophy. The trophy guide on this website only lists two potential towers that include a secret fight (edit: I am now a contributor and basically added the information from this thread to the guide), however I am aware of at least seven that can spawn them. Most guides online also don't detail all of the towers, if I was only to refer to the guide on this website or guides on other trophy websites, I would not have acquired the trophy currently, I kind of dug through the game a lot to make sure I could have the best chance to get a secret fight whenever I needed one. At times the game can take over a month before it ends up spawning one of the premier towers that has a secret fight. You must also have a connection to the game's servers to access the Living Towers.
It is worth noting that the secret fight can only spawn in the Premier Tower and will never spawn in the hourly or daily tower, the premier tower lasts for one week and it begins on Tuesdays at 6:00AM GMT.
The only tower you can predict appearing within a specific time frame is "The Day of Love" which will appear during the same week as Valentine's Day (February 14th), but this tower only comes up at that period, whereas the other towers could come up at any time during the year.
If anyone else knows about other towers that might have a secret fight, feel free to inform me and I will add them to this thread. Another thing to note is that I have not played all of these towers, so I have only written what other people say has worked for them, so if I made a mistake, let me know and I'll correct it. Aside from that, if you want to be sure you fulfil the requirements, simply perform a Brutality or Fatality at the end of every match in the tower that you are working on, then you won't have missed anything, however I think the requirements only apply to the fight that spawns before the secret opponent.
The best way to go through most towers easily is to use Sub-Zero and simply abuse the opponents with this combo: (Forward) + , , , Sub-Zero's Klassic Fatality (Head Rip) is also very simple to perform, the inputs for it are: , , + (Close to opponent) or Forward, Down, Forward + or what some will refer to as a Shoryuken input, however I believe the Klassic Fatality is a DLC fatality so if you do not have the DLC, you need to use a different Fatality. The Trophy Hunter Tower requires you to use Predator throughout the entire thing and you do need a Flawless Victory with him, in the comment section of this video: =lpd3pX8KjGk is a recommended combo by the uploader of the video, the combo outlined by them is: (Back) + , , + , Predator's simplest Fatality to perform has the following inputs: , , , + or Down, Down, Back, Forward + , to perform this Fatality you need to be up close to your opponent. The Who's Next Tower also requires you to use various characters, however this tower is the rarest tower to pop up on the entire game, the tower was made specifically to promote more DLC for the game and luckily if the tower does show up, it doesn't require you to get any Flawless Victories. You can refer to this list of fatalities if you want to see if another character's fatalities suit you more than Sub-Zero: -mortal-kombat-x-and-xl-fatalities. Beating towers is fairly simple and AI seems to be set to Easy/Medium difficulty and should not cause you problems when you simply abuse them with spam combos.
It is also worth noting that you can restart on the specific opponent you are on if you fail to fulfil the Flawless Victory requirement (if the tower requires that). To restart the fight, simply pause the game then choose your character again from the pause menu, this will spawn you back into the fight.
This thread will not inform you that a secret fight is ongoing, as I won't be checking the game, however people are free to make posts that do inform people that one of the towers is up. I hope this helps anyone who wants to get a secret fight.
That's not it either. Definitely don't need a flawless or a finisher. I did all of the above several times and it didn't happen. The time it did happen, I neither did a finisher nor a flawless on the 7th fight. I have no idea what the requirements are. A google search shows nobody else does either.
Considering people have successfully completed the tower with the requirements listed in the thread, I will keep them there as that is still a reliable way to go about getting the trophy in that tower. Of course, if MK4 comes up next time and someone posts about it, I will then test it out on my own and see what happens.
I'm telling you right now that if you post that as the requirements, you are posting a lie. First hand experience. Post what you want. I'm not the only person out there saying it as well. On NRS own forums there are tons of people saying they got it to pop without a single finisher up to that point.
-TT9XTQ?t=12m28s I looked at the fight there and the guy got a Stage Brutality and that unlocked his secret fight. Also, I'm the one who has tried to help people get trophies for the game by showing them alternative secret fights. The person who posted above you likely wouldn't have known that the Day of Love premier tower had a secret fight this week if it wasn't for this thread. I've already told people that if I got wrong information, inform me about it and I'll try to correct it and I have, maybe if you're such an expert, do your own research on this trophy and post a thread telling people how to get it. The thread is open for discussion, but you're trying to make it personal by taking digs at me, when have I ever insulted you? You only come and provide your word to 99% of shit and a lot of the time you're wrong, so I had to look at other alternatives before simply taking your word for this too.
This thread was made to provide information to people about towers that they could use to get the trophy without only relying on trophy guides, which typically only list the MK1, MK2 and MK3 towers. I always expect people to be a dick over trophies when I make threads like this, in the last thread I made for an NRS game I had to put a disclaimer about people potentially being dicks to what I was saying about the game. At the end of the day, the only intention here is to help people and I'm doing the research so people can look at a tower, then look at this thread and see if there would be a secret fight. When more people try other towers, they can leave their opinion and there's no need to be disrespectful, you're 18 years older than me but you're being a lot more immature, I never thought I'd have to tell a 40 year old man to grow up on a forum. But aside from that, I do some research about various games and it's to make sure that what I'm saying isn't plucked out of thin air like you normally do. You criticise @MMDE for being a witch-hunter, but you've probably never PM'd him in a reasonable way, you only talk negatively about him but what you don't know is how much time he spends trying to learn more about games before he does apply a flag, he's the main person who goes out of their way to make sure a flag is correct before keeping it on their profile.
FYI: Here's a video of someone getting the Secret Fight while performing the requirements I initially stated in the thread: =R5FPNOBIhYM I don't know, who should I believe? Phil's word or hard video evidence? Hard choice really.
I only know of the one tower. I'm not taking digs at you. I'm telling you the one I do know about, you have wrong. You have somebody in this thread telling you it's wrong and you say you're going to post it anyways. A responsible person would leave it as unknown. So lie about if you want. I don't care really.
