Character Customization
Before we get on how to use the classes, you need to know about this feature of the game called customization. You can go this by clicking the Character button on the spawning menu, which is found on the lower left part of the screen. Also, you can change your character’s appearance as a bonus.
The reason why customization’s important is because each class will have different and significant options for the helmet, armor, backpack and belt. Changing these will adjust the stats of your character. It’s important to know that so you can make your character as fit and perfect for your playstyle and class as much as possible.
How To Use Classes
In order to choose and change your class, look at the lower middle part of the screen when you are spawning in. You’ll also see Loadout and Character on the lower left part of the screen which are both very important. The default class will be the Assault class. Once you’re ready and has chosen your desired settings, simply click deploy to spawn in the game.
The following section will talk about each role, how to play them and what they do. We’ll only focus on the primary weapons and gadgets, as well as secondary gadgets since they are the only important things that separate one class from another. Let’s get into it!
Assault
As mentioned before, the role of an Assault is to help your team push and advance forward. As the team’s assault, you’ll be in charge on making openings, objectives and movement for your team. When playing this role, keep in mind that you’ll have to be decisive and creative when making plays for your team. Also, you’ll have to be good at mid-range combat since you’ll be taking them a lot. For the primary weapon, you can only choose from a variety of Assault Rifles which include the likes of M4A1, AK15 and AUG 13.
For the primary gadget, you can choose from tools that can all help you make openings for your team. The binoculars can be used to find angles of entry. While the explosives can destroy walls to make space and entry for your team. The unique primary gadget for this class is the grenade launcher which is a more controlled explosive and can be used towards a directory.
For the secondary gadget, you can again, choose from a variety of tools which can all be useful for making openings and entry for your team. The grappling hook can make new paths for your teammates to flank or get a better position. Meanwhile, the sledgehammer can destroy walls to open up routes and paths for your team, which is valuable since it doesn’t run up like the explosives. The pickaxe can make small holes on walls where your team can shoot from. Lastly, the riot shield is a helpful tool for helping your team push into the enemy, especially when you’re in a choke point.
For the throwables, the only thing worth mentioning are the smoke bombs. They are very useful for entry. Also, they can give your team a good amount of space on setting up your push.
Medic
As the name indicates, this class is designed to aid and heal your team in the battle. You’ll be equipped with tools and equipment to do so. When playing this class, make sure to stay in the team’s back as you are generally less durable, and your main role is to heal the frontline. For the primary weapon, you can choose from a variety of weapon classes like Assault Rifles, SMGs, Personal Defense Weapons and Carbines. On choosing your primary weapon, find what you think is best for your playstyle.
For the primary gadget, you can choose from the usual selection. However, if you prefer to be a hardcore medic, then you can use the smoke grenade launcher. This is useful for making space for your teammates, especially when they’re downed. You can use this to revive teammates without risking doing so in the open.
What’s a medic without a Medic Kit? This is the only option for the class. The Med kit heals a player to 100%. This very valuable compared to the bandage. Also, make sure to use a backpack that gives you the most number of med kits possible in the customization menu.
Engineer
This class is designed solely for taking care of your team and opponents’ vehicles. As the engineer, your role is to repair your team’s damaged vehicles as well as your equipment to destroy the enemy team’s vehicles. Though keep in mind that you can still contribute to your team’s offense while playing this class. For your primary weapon, this class has the widest variety of weapons to choose from: including Automatic Rifles, Designated Marksman Rifles, SMGs, Personal Defense Weapons and Carbines which is pretty much everything.
For the primary gadget, you have the usual choices. However, what makes this role special is the repair tool and anti-vehicle mine. You can use the repair tool to repair your team’s vehicle which is exclusive for this class. Meanwhile, you can use the anti-vehicle mine to destroy enemy vehicles without interacting with them. Use this smartly as this requires proper placement – use on ideal paths where the enemy vehicles might go.
For the secondary gadget, you still have the repair tool as an option. Just in case you prefer to have other gadgets for the primary ones. If you already have the repair tool, you can opt for a variety of RPGs which are effective for taking out enemy vehicles.
Support
This class focuses on supplying ammos for your teammates as well as building. Although the name states it as such, the support class can also be an offensive threat able to equip strong guns and armor. Although this is in exchange of your speed, so think of the support class as the potential frontline as well. For the primary weapon, you can choose between a light support gun and light machine gun exclusive to the class. These weapons are heavy and has lots of ammo though they are heavier compared to the other guns.
We’ll skip the primary gadgets since they’re pretty much standard. For the secondary gadgets you can choose between a heavy ammo kit and small ammo kit. Use them to refill your team’s ammos which is very valuable in terms of utility.
Besides the equipment, one of the main strengths on the support class is the ability to instantly build. These include walls, fortifications, and other structures to assist your team. Take advantage of this by making covers for your assaults and team movement.
Lastly, what makes this class unique is its access to the Exo Armor Set. This gives the highest durability in the game. Equip this if you want to be on the frontline. Though keep in mind that you will be very slow as a drawback.
Recon
This class is designed for long-range attacks and scouting. With that said, for your primary weapon, you can choose between designated marksman rifles and sniper rifles. They are exclusive to this class. These guns excel in terms of range capable of taking out enemies from afar. Though they can be difficult to use compared to the other guns.
As a recon, you’ll need to be smart on finding and switching positions. So, you are able to take out as much enemy as possible without compromising your position. Your responsibility is also to take out enemy recons. Since you are able to shoot and find them from a distance. Also, you generally have idea on how they position.
Again, we’ll skip the primary gadgets since they’re standard. For the secondary gadget, the notable ones are the air drone and mdx 201 which both offer utility. The air drone is useful for scouting out information as well as finding other snipers. Meanwhile, the mdx 201 can be used to distract other snipers ultimately taking them out.
As a recon/sniper, you won’t be moving a lot. With that said, you’ll want to invest your stats on magazine size and throwables. Since you won’t be using the movement stats that much. Equip equipment that lets you do so on the character customization menu. A high primary magazine number will let you shoot with your sniper rifle for days.
Leader
This class can only be accessible to the squad leader. As much as it is separated into a different class. It’s pretty much the same as the Assault class. Though the leader has access to the leader helmet to show who’s boss. Also, he will have a variety of primary weapons, primary and secondary gadgets to choose from.
That’s pretty much it! I hope you find what suits your playstyle the best. However, if you decide to try out other roles as well, make sure to check this guide out again. If you’re interested in more BattleBit Remastered shenanigans and guides, make sure to check them out as well!
