BUILD HAWKS FOR YOUR SQUAD
Hawks Build Planner
Hawks can change Specialization and weapon. Fearless Leader is fixed: it raises assist damage, defense, and chance-to-hit for every Operator while Hawks is present.

All eight build directions
| Specialization | Squad job | Weapon direction | Key abilities | Why it fits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assault | Mobile frontline pressure | Blaster Rifle or Pistol | Bull Rush for displacement; Sweeping Salvo for cone pressure | Mobility and cover disruption let Hawks create safer angles for the squad. |
| Gunslinger | Fast multi-attack turns | Blaster Pistol or Repeater | Quick Draw can refund 1 AP on an elimination; Open Fire attacks twice | Multiple attacks create more chances to finish targets and exploit team setup. |
| Heavy | Tank and threat control | Repeater | Bulwark area-Taunts; Unstoppable grants two Retaliations | Fearless Leader already supports the squad; Heavy Hawks adds a clear frontline anchor. |
| Medic | Healing and rescue insurance | Blaster Rifle or Pistol | Combat Stim buffs an ally; Morale Boost heals the nearby squad over time | This is the most conservative way to combine Hawks’ team aura with recovery support. |
| Scoundrel | Crit and assist setup | Blaster Rifle or Pistol | Identify Weakness guarantees the next damaging critical; Easy Mark enables an assist | Hawks can open a target for a harder-hitting ally while Fearless Leader improves assists. |
| Scout | Advantage and spotting support | Blaster Pistol | Combat Recon generates Advantage; blaster damage applies Spotted | Three 1 AP pistol shots can create more tagging opportunities, while Recon feeds squad actions. |
| Sharpshooter | Long-range precision | Longarm Blaster | Zero In grants Lethal but movement removes it; Precision Shot always hits | A backline Hawks can keep Fearless Leader active while covering long lanes. |
| Soldier | Simple explosive damage | Blaster Rifle | Rocket Strike supplies area damage; Brutal Strike Dazes once per enemy per battle | The rifle opener and direct ability plan make Soldier the clearest aggressive baseline. |
