Seer tips and tricks
Seer Passive tips: Heart Seeker
These pulsing arrows grow larger as Seer aims closer to the target, allowing you to effectively pinpoint the location of an enemy, though not necessarily their distance from you.
Seer Passive tips:
Seer Tactical tips: Focus Of Attention
Description: Seer summons his micro-drones to emit a delayed blast that goes through walls interrupting and revealing enemies. Cooldown: 30s.
Seer’s Tactical on paper seems extraordinarily powerful, and really it is, but it’s also hard to master. Focus Of Attention sends out a giant tunnel where Seer points, which goes through objects and terrain. After a moment, the tunnel will reveal all enemies within it for 8 seconds.
Affected enemies will also have their abilities, heals, and revives interrupted, and Seer and his allies will be able to see a health bar above every affected enemy’s head for the full 8 seconds.
Seer Tactical tips:
Seer Ultimate tips: Exhibit
Description: Create a sphere of micro-drones that reveal the location of enemies moving quickly or firing their weapons within. Charge Time: 120s.
Exhibit allows Seer to toss his heart chamber a fair distance, which then creates a large sphere around itself for 30 seconds. During this time, all enemies inside the sphere who shoot or run have their whereabouts and footsteps highlighted to Seer.
It’s worth remembering, however, that enemies that crouch-walk or don’t move at all are invisible to Exhibit’s sensors. The same is true of enemies in the air. So there is a fair amount of counterplay to this ability, but it’s still a powerful tool in many situations.
