Scout specialization guide

What Scout does

Finds targets, improves squad planning, and creates opportunities before the damage roles commit.

The official role describes the job, not a mandatory weapon or fixed squad. Standard Specializations can support different Operators and can be adjusted at The Den as the campaign develops.

Field strengths

• Enemy information
• Opportunity creation
• Advantage support

Planning risks

• Indirect value can be easy to underrate
• Requires follow-up from allies

Squad fit

A strong enabler for Assault and Sharpshooter Operators because both benefit from reliable target information.

Before committing Focus Points

• Name the job this Operator performs on the current squad.
• Check whether the weapon AP cost supports that job.
• Identify which teammate creates the opening this role needs.
• Preserve a recovery or retreat plan before moving forward.
