Specialist plays the role of the sniper, in the battlefield - Professional - Character classes - Battlefield Hardline - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Specialist plays the role of the sniper, in the battlefield. His gear and weapon work best over long distances. The players playing as this class will usually be occupying positions far away from the front line. Their primary role is to support their teammates from afar.

Gadgets

Laser tripmine - Professional - Character classes - Battlefield Hardline - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Laser tripmine

You can attach it to any surface. It goes off at the moment at which an opponent crosses the laser beam. It is an ideal tool for securing flanks, which will let you eliminate opponents from a safe distance. The mine can be defused, by shooting at it, or by holding down the reload key. The mines of the allies have been marked with green beam, whereas the enemy's with red.

Usability: if properly deployed, laser tripmines can effectively secure the sniper that scores a kill after another, and ensure him with several more, which he does not need to apply himself to, too much - Professional - Character classes - Battlefield Hardline - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Camera - Professional - Character classes - Battlefield Hardline - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Camera

It works like a motion detector. It marks all targets around the map, within the range of 90 degrees. Simultaneously, you can deploy 3 cameras, if only you have access to the ammo box. It is a perfect gadget that you can deploy in the way that prevents the opponent from surrounding your team. Additionally, you receive points for marking opponents.

Usability: if deployed properly, the camera may be a huge facilitation for the team, thanks to which you will know where the opponent is approaching from. In the right spot, it can ensure the specialist with quite a few additional points.

Decoy - Professional - Character classes - Battlefield Hardline - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Decoy

It produces noise and creates false markers on the enemy's minimap, in the spot of deployment. It is a very good way of luring the enemy and shooting him in the back.

Usability: you need to be smart to score several kills with decoy. It needs to be deployed in the way that makes opponents turn away, in search of the object marked on the minimap. If you combine that with a suppressed weapon, you can be sure that you score several kills. However, you need to remember that nobody falls for the same trick twice.

Stealth training - Professional - Character classes - Battlefield Hardline - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Stealth training

Thanks to this ability, your footsteps and actions, such as door opening, become quieter. This would be useful for getting behind the enemy lines, but a sniper rarely has the opportunity to do that. Apart from that, there is no point in playing with this ability, if you do not apply the suppressor to your weapon, which decreases the muzzle velocity of the bullet, and this is recommended against, in the case of sniper rifles.

Usability: specialist is usually the class that is deployed far away from the opponent, which means that he rarely sneaks and this makes this gadget useless.

Recommended gadgets

The laser tripmine and camera make very good gadgets. They allow you to secure, e.g. an access to the rooftop that you are on. This makes it impossible for the opponent to get around you. A good way to lure out the enemy from hiding is the decoy. If, however, you want to get to a spot, where you are not expected, you can use the grappling hook or the zipline.

Hints

As specialist, position yourself, around, 50-150 meters away from the heat of the action, find a safe rooftop or other spot, deploy mines and the camera around, to avoid getting hit with a baton or stabbed.

The specialist class uses automatic pistols (other than machine pistols), which are highly effective over short distances. This is why, if you are close to the enemy, do not hesitate to use the pistol. For example, the G17 deals, at best, 34 damage to the chest, with one shot, at the firerate on 900 rounds per minute.

If the opponent is on the move and you are not sure if you can hit him, do not shoot. This way, you will only give away your position and the enemy will escape. Remain in hiding and mark him. Maybe, this way, some of your teammates will kill him and you get the points.

Pay attention to the enemy movements. If he is running, you need to shoot in front, as if, of him. How much in front of him you shoot, depends on the muzzle velocity of the bullet, the speed of the opponent's movement and the distance, from the opponent that you are at. With time, you will be able to time your shot well and hitting moving objects will become mare natural.

If you are at a long distance from the opponent, reset your scope. You do that with the firerate change button. You need to determine the distance from the opponent and reset the scope for that distance. Then, the bullet will be shot a bit higher than the spot you are aiming at, with provision for the bullet drop.
