Seer lives up to the definition of a recon legend. His entire kit aims to track down opponents and reveal them to his teammates. When an experienced player pilots Seer, he’s easily one of the best picks for the recon role and brings a ton of value to his team. Any player looking to pick up Seer should focus on mastering the passive Heart Seeker, and predicting enemy movement.
Strengths
- Seer is a fantastic legend for tracking the position of his opponents through his passive Heart Seeker.

Weaknesses

Skill Breakdown
Passive Ability – Heart Seeker
Visualize the heartbeats of enemies within a short range while aiming down sights. This ability can be used while holding Seer’s hands out or with a weapon. If enemies are within this ability’s range, it will pulse, indicating their position from Seer’s crosshair.
Tactical Ability (Q) – Focus of Attention
Summon micro-drones to emit a delayed blast that goes through walls. If this blast lands on an enemy player, it will reveal their position and health to Seer’s team and interrupt any action such as healing.
Ultimate Ability (Z) – Exhibit
Create a sphere of micro-drones that reveal the location of any enemies moving or firing inside of its range. Enemy positions will only be revealed if they move around without jumping or crouching. This ability can be destroyed and has 125 health points.
Tips and Tricks
Tip #1 – Exhibit a Deterrence
Seer’s ultimate ability Exhibit is a powerful tool that shows the location of opposing players if they are moving quickly. This makes the ability a great tool to counter enemy pushes. If you’re low or have teammates that need to heal, this ability is an excellent deterrent to any opposing squad thinking about pushing. If they decide to push anyways, use your increased information on enemy positions to gain a massive edge and flip the fight in your favor.
Tip #2 – Focusing Your Attention
Seer’s tactical ability Focus of Attention, is an ability that oftentimes gets wasted by players. The key to mastering this ability is thinking about the timing of its use. Let’s say you tagged a low enemy and want to push them. Using your passive Heart Seeker to find their exact location and then activating Focus of Attention to interrupt their heal is a great way to force them to either fight on low health points or try to heal and get caught out. This is just one example of using this ability, but it can only be effective, assuming you haven’t wasted it. Take your time lining up the exact location of an enemy with Heart Seeker and use Focus of Attention at the right time to gain the most value.
