One of Fortnite’s new Spring Breakout quests tasks players with giving a hired Specialist Character a command, but it’s not exactly clear on how to do that. Worry not, we have you covered.
Fortnite added the ability to hire NPC characters to join your cause throughout a match all the way back in Chapter 2 Season 5. However, Fortnite Update 24.10 took it one step further by adding Specialist Characters into the mix. What makes specialists so… special? Well they come in four unique classes, each with their own strengths over your typical hired NPC.
First off there's the Scout Specialist which uses its Sniper to pick off foes from afar, and also has the incredibly useful ability to ping nearby enemies and chests, so you can get the drop on approaching players. Heavy Specialists specialise in destruction and can take more damage than a typical NPC. Supply Specialists drop ammo and crafting components. Finally, there's the Medical Specialists which will heal you up with Chug Splashes to get you through those tight gunfights.
