Best Support in Star Wars: Hunters

The best Support in Star Wars: Hunters is Skora, with Zaina just behind in second place. However, each Support character is useful in the right circumstances, so here’s a breakdown of each one:

Sprocket

Sprocket’s drones are what make him strong in fights.

Sprocket may initially look like a non-intimidating Mon Calamari at first, so it can be easy to underestimate the power of his drones in battle. 

Sprocket’s strengths lie in controlling enemies and helping his team in battle, especially with Targeting Drone which reveals enemy locations, and Medical Droid which heals his teammates. 

He’s the weakest Support in the game, though, for the same reason. His drones are a little too reliant on enemy and ally positioning, and his Ultimate ability, Ultra Turret, can easily miss if enemies move out of sight of the Targeting Drone. 

Because he relies so much on positioning, he would be a good choice for modes where you need to control points like Dynamic Control, where it’s not necessary to get a lot of kills and teammates can easily retreat to get some healing. 

Zaina

Zaina is a great Support for fast-paced situations.

Zaina is a Rebel War Hero with abilities that excel in fast-paced environments in Star Wars: Hunters. She has her own Blaster Pistol that is great for mid to long-range fights, and a Dodge Roll that helps her avoid incoming fire and resets the Pistol’s heat. 

A true combat medic, Zaina’s abilities enable her teammates to get in and out of fights quickly with maximum effect. Bacta Bomb is a great option for when the team is taking too much damage, and her Passive, Combat Medic, also ensures that they will survive. 

Zaina’s main weakness is her versatility, as she is not necessarily as useful in Dynamic Control as she would be in modes like Squad Brawl. Overall, though, she remains a strong Support pick in Star Wars: Hunters. 

Skora

Skora’s versatility is what makes him the strongest Support.

The Rodian Skora is the best Support character in Star Wars: Hunters right now, and that’s mainly due to his immense versatility in almost any situation. 

Adrenaline Boost helps him reach teammates faster, which gives him more ability to actually help anyone in a bad situation. This is notably something the other two Supports are missing, as they are more reliant on both enemy and ally positioning. 

His Ultimate, Unstable Cocktail, together with his Dart Gun, gives him a hand up in situations where both teammates and enemies need to be dealt with. Alongside Stim Shot, which gives additional healing to teammates, he can become an unstoppable force in any battle. 

That’s the our tier list for Support characters in Star Wars: Hunters, but if you’re more of a Tank player, be sure to check out our tier list for those as well. Otherwise, be sure you’re familiar with all maps and modes so you can choose the best characters for every situation.
