10 best Free Fire characters for Battle Royale mode
Unlike other battle royale titles like PUBG Mobile, Free Fire features characters that have unique abilities and can be purchased using FF Diamonds and Golds. It grants players an advantage over their foes in certain conditions and often paves the way to Booyah. Also, players can utilize four character's abilities at once by creating character combinations. However, they can only include one character with an active ability, while others must be skilled with passive ones.
Since the developer offers an abundance of FF characters, it isn't easy to choose an avatar. Also, the character you choose for the Battle Royale mode doesn't necessarily serve well in the Clash Squad mode. Therefore, you must choose different characters for these two modes.
This article lists the 10 best characters to help you stand out in the Free Fire Battle Royale mode.
Disclaimer: Free Fire is banned in India. Readers in the region are advised against playing the game. Instead, they can play Free Fire Max, an India-exclusive and legal variant.
Best Free Fire characters for Battle Royale mode
The best characters in Free Fire are as follows:
1) Kassie
Kassie is among the best characters in Free Fire for the Battle Royale mode. A neuroscientist and a healing expert, Kassie is skilled in two abilities: Electro Therapy and Focused Therapy. The former lets her create a healing bond with a chosen ally within 20 meters, granting the user and the ally three HP per second.
Focused Therapy, on the other hand, lets her grant 100 HP instantly to the chosen ally. It's activated by double-tapping the active button. Note that Focused Therapy cools down in 60 seconds and grants the picked teammate 50 HP instantly when their health goes below 50.
2) Misha
Reaching a far-off circle is one of the hard-pressed situations that Battle Royale matches often put you in. In such conditions, many experienced players prefer to use the character Misha. She increases your driving speed by 10% and makes it hard for your enemies to aim at you. Moreover, she decreases your damage taken by 20%.
3) Dimitri
Dimitri can work as a life-saving character when you have a severely low HP and are short of medkits. He creates a healing zone of 3.5 meters for 12 seconds in which your whole squad recovers 10 HP per second; this ability's cooldown lasts for 60 seconds. Moreover, its help up is activated when the need arises and can be enhanced by other skills.
4) Moco
Spotting your enemies at the earliest is an imperative practice in FF’s Battle Royale mode. A simple delay in the act can send you directly to the lobby. Fortunately, we get the character Moco, who comes in handy to spot the nearby foes. Enemies hit by her will be tagged for five seconds and can be traced by the entire squad.
5) Sonia
Sonia will leave you in a do-or-die situation as her ability can turn out to be lethal for you as well as your opponents. When you are inflicted with lethal damage, the character goes into an immobile but invulnerable state for 0.5 seconds. Next, you gain a 150 HP shield that lasts for three seconds.
If you knock down or kill an enemy within these three seconds, you gain the residual HP shield point as your HP. However, if you fail to knock down or kill any opponent during the shield's activation, you will be eliminated automatically. This skill has a cooldown of 180 seconds.
6) Luna
Luna is the best character for close-range gunfights in the Battle Royale mode. She increases your rate of fire by 8%, and when you hit an enemy, she converts 15% of the fire rate into movement speed. Also, the conversion resets after you survive the combat.
7) Orion
The Orion is another popular character in Free Fire that many players prefer to use in Battle Royale rank matches. It converts your EP into 300 Crimson Energy and consumes 150 to activate his skill. During its activation, you will not be able to attack your enemies but will stay invulnerable from their attacks. Nevertheless, you will absorb 15 HP from your enemies that are within five meters. Moreover, the skill lasts and cools down in three seconds.
8) Miguel
Maintaining a high EP count is essential in a relatively long Battle Royale rank match. This is where Miguel aids you as he provides 200 EP when you knock down an enemy. Additionally, the character Orion can make an excellent combination with Miguel, as the former requires 150 EP to activate its skill that the latter can conveniently provide.
9) Wukong
You may have to save yourself by hiding from your foes on the battleground, and Wukong is the best choice in this regard. He instantly transforms into a bush that reduces your movement speed by 10%, lasting 15 seconds. Moreover, you will be transformed back when you attack an enemy. The skill cooldowns in 200 seconds and resets when you knock or kill an enemy.
10) Alok
Alok is a character you can choose when you need to get cover while restoring your HP. He encircles you with a five-meter aura that increases your movement speed by 15% and restores three HP per second for 10 seconds. The skill’s CD is 45 seconds.
