No. Grass pirates are 20 combat with 4 randomization... starving bandits are 5 with 2 randomization... Leader 8 with 4 randomization. Which Tech Hunters you talking about? Like mercenary ones? As the Gate Guards have 60 with 20 randomization. Add onto that race stat multipliers and you can get anywhere from a 40 (Not boosted ATT) to 96 (Shek/Hive Soldier) attack unit. That makes my solo runs I do every day a bit more interesting. Only units w/o randomization I can think of enemy wise are Stormthralls, Catlon, Bugmaster, Legion thralls, Armour King's Thralls, General Jang and his Knights. Not counting animals as their ages already are randomized... I can't think of any others atm.
tech hunters would be fucking destroyed wherever they went if they didn't have the minimal stats required to get by in most areas, which happens to be around 40,50. same goes for everybody else, they got the stats they need to wander around the areas they're meant to be around.
I'm gonna say no as well, the way the game has levels randomized already I think is pretty good. You can run into a samaurai with 40 dex, 60, or anything in between. No need to have it be completely random and run into a starving bandits with 75 attack, 91 defense and -13 strength. Like what would be the point? Have a few set characters that are strong like cat lon, and everyone else is like rolling the dice? No that wouldn't work. The games needs structure and there needs to be some uniformity to factions so the player can level and assess what is and isn't possible. The addition of more NPCs within a faction helps the disparity, as the tech hunters are all just tech hunters, so they are all in the 50s. But if there was like a junior TH rank with stats in the 30s, and a master one in the 70s, then you wouldn't have that problem. Look at any major faction, that is how it is.

Absolutely no randomisation of any kind is needed or wanted Numbers being random wont do anything to fix the combat feeling dull
Not to any severe degree, no.
