Unlocking the full potential of Sova means mastering his unique skillset and being able to apply it in various situations. As a reconnaissance specialist, he stands apart from other characters with his superior long range accuracy for picking off enemies and gathering vital information. With proper knowledge of how to utilize these talents, you'll be sure to take your game as Sova up a notch!
Sova's abilities:
- Owl Drone: Sova can deploy an Owl Drone that can be controlled remotely. The drone can fly around the map, marking enemies for Sova and his allies to see. The drone also has a shock dart that can be used to damage and stun enemies.
- Recon Bolt: Sova can fire a bolt that deploys a sonar pulse, revealing enemies within a large radius. This ability can be useful for gathering information on enemy positions, especially in areas that are difficult to see.
- Shock Bolt: Sova can fire a bolt that explodes on impact, dealing damage and stunning enemies in a small area. This ability can be useful for disabling enemy abilities or setting up kills.
- Hunter's Fury: Sova's ultimate ability allows him to fire a set of three powerful energy bolts that can travel through walls. These bolts can be aimed manually and will mark enemies they hit, allowing Sova and his allies to see them even if they are behind cover.
Tips for playing as Sova:
- Use the Owl Drone to gather information on enemy positions, especially in areas that are difficult to see. This will allow you to pick off enemies from long range and surprise them with your shock bolts.
- Communicate with your team about the information you gather with your abilities. This will help your team coordinate and make better decisions.
- Use Shock Bolt to disable enemy abilities or set up kills. For example, you can use it to stun an enemy who is using their ultimate, or to interrupt an enemy's ability to heal.
- Save your ultimate for when you can get multiple kills with it. The energy bolts can travel through walls, so try to position yourself in a way that allows you to hit as many enemies as possible.
