Is Helhest good?

Helhest keeps the team stocked on heavy ammo and can swap between buffing and healing depending on what a fight calls for. Her drones cover a wide area, which suits allies who move around a lot, and that mix of team utility puts her at the top of the Support pool.

Precision weapons are part of her kit though, so she needs to land her shots to get full value, and in PvP her weak spot lock-on doesn't work against other players, which takes away one of her tools there.

Strengths

  • keeps allies supplied with heavy ammo
  • swaps between buffing and healing as a fight demands
  • drone coverage suits mobile allies

Weaknesses

  • precision weapons need accurate aim to pay off
  • weak spot lock-on is useless against player targets in PvP
