Hacker Class – An Overview

The Hacker’s coup de grace is his ability to jam out enemy intel while having the ability to keep his own intact. If a player uses the mini-map to navigate (which is most often used in BR), expect to have a huge advantage in intel over the enemy.

Overview of the hacker class - tips and tricks

Like each class in Battle Royale, the Hacker has a passive and an active ability. They are:

Ice Pick (Active) – Activate this ability to block out the map of all enemy players nearby and prevent them from using their own abilities for a brief amount. The skill itself has a huge AoE. It can be absolutely devastating against certain classes like the Medic if used at the right time.

Hard Wired (Passive) – This ability ensures that your minimap cannot be tampered with, even by enemy hackers. Moreover, Hard Wired lets you be invisible on all mini-maps at all times. This means that players won’t be able to track you on their maps. You can track them anytime you want.

The Hacker is a position reliant class and demands an experienced Battle Royale player for it to be used effectively.

Hacker Class – Tips and Tricks

Now that we have a general idea about what the Hacker Class does, here are some tips and tricks we think can help you master the class even quicker and get those sweet BR wins!

The Hacker’s active has a somewhat low cool down with a large AOE. Always use it when you sense someone is close, even if you aren’t sure. Disabling an enemy’s actives before the fight even begins is a sure way to get some free hits off.
The Ice Pick’s active shows the number of players being affected by your hack. Use this to understand the number of teams in a specific area and make a mental note of the most common locations they can be at.
The Hacker is extremely good at end-game circles, use the Ice Pick ability to scout out how many players are near valuable dropped loot by the end of the game.
The class is extremely good for exploring newer or more populated areas around the map. As you gather more intel than anyone else and cannot be trapped, the advantage does skew towards your favor.
A chip upgrade terminal boosts your Ice Pick’s range and duration to up to 30 seconds for almost 1.5x the radius.
Use your Ice Pick ability as an escape! Whenever you feel like you are in a pinch, use the Ice Pick to momentarily disable everyone’s skills and minimap, making sure you get away scot-free!
Be aggressive! The Hacker class helps you be extremely stealthy; use this coupled with a silenced weapon from a drop or your loadout to get the jump on your enemies without being noticed or tracked.
