Build each Operator around one repeatable job: hold a lane, remove priority targets, reposition enemies, protect allies, or sustain the squad. Match Specialization, loadout, and abilities to that job, then use bonds and cross-training to reinforce the team plan rather than maximizing unrelated stats.
Verified guideMost Operators use one of eight standard Specializations: Assault, Gunslinger, Heavy, Medic, Scoundrel, Scout, Sharpshooter, or Soldier. Each includes an Ultimate, a Standard ability, and a Passive. Choose by the role your squad needs, then judge the complete ability package rather than the class name alone.
