Best Specialist

Webster Mackay is easily the best specialist in Battlefield 2042. This Canadian Assault Specialist has a Gadget and Trait that are all about infantry combat. His Gadget is the Grappling Hook, which allows Webster to quickly navigate the map and gain high ground. It can also be used to create new traversal routes to easily flank snipers and squads who are holed up in tall buildings. Webster's Nimble trait gives him a much faster strafe speed than the other Specialists, which makes him more formidable during melee combat.
