The Omnidyne R-23 Nighthawk removes threats from a distance with surgical precision.
The Nighthawk is best equipped for long range combat
thanks to its deadly sniper rifle and range of abilities.
Whether supporting a group from afar, or jump jetting solo,
the Nighthawk was born to kill, combining precision and explosions in a tool bag ready for any situation.
With steady aim and quick reflexes, you will destroy foes quickly,
and their exploding corpses will spread your pain even further across the open world.
The Chosen will fall, and the Accord will give you a long distance thumbs up for your aid.
Let your Dreadnaught allies wade into the thick of things;
you can help clean up this world from the comfort of anywhere you want.
The Sniper Rifle is the main tool of the Omnidyne Nighthawk.
With a powerful scope that provides excellent vision of targets at a distance,
a well-placed shot to the head of a target
will cause high amounts of damage, if not instant death.
Additionally, if the shot is the kill shot,
the bullet will detonate violently with an AOE damage affect..
Ambush is the Nighthawk’s passive ability.
As an extra reward for being a skilled, sneaky sniper and avoiding being tagged into your enemy’s SIN,
you will deal bonus damage on your next shot without consuming ammo.
Chain bonus damage by continually landing headshots to refresh the buff.
This effect will fall off and go into a cool down should you miss, land a body shot, or get tagged by the enemy…
so go headshot or go home.
Tired of pulling your own bolt after every shot?
Let this ability give you a brief and vigorous helping hand.
The Nighthawk can activate the Execution module to increase the rate of fire for a duration.
Remote Explosive is the Nighthawks main ability for attacking groups of enemies.
The initial use of this ability sends a mine rocketing towards a target
and upon impact, sticks to its target.
The second activation detonates the mine for damage over a large area.
It can be a subtle but violent trap laid in preparation,
or an emergency response to an encroaching horde.
When the first target falls, nearby foes will usually take notice.
The Nighthawk can slip back into the shadows with Smoke Screen--
disappearing from SIN and from sight.
Try this ability in close-combat!
Cause heavy destruction and quickly move back to a safer position.
The enemy really won't know what hit it.
The Nighthawk’s HKM ability Eruption Rounds, is the ultimate trump card for any situation.
Upon activation, every round fired for a short duration, will detonate,
causing high amounts of damage to all those in range.
Finding and cornering a Nighthawk is never a guaranteed victory
when Eruption Rounds will turn you into a smoking crater.
The battlefield can be a nightmarish place.
But to your opponents, you will be the ultimate purveyor of abject terror--
the killer they cannot see.
Stealthy and surgical, you’ll pick them off one by one from your hidden, deadly perch.
And so your enemies will know you as the invisible executioner,
the wraith who haunts their dreams,
the god in the shadows.
Strike fear and strike hard as the Nighthawk.
