The game has a large cast of uniquely crafted characters with powerful abilities to give their gameplay some style. Players trying out the game for the first time may want insight into how these characters behave and which are top played. Here are some of the best heroes in Farlight 84, ranked.

Phantom is an elusive and deadly hero in Farlight 84 that many players will want to pick up thanks to her versatility and the value she brings to being part of a team. Phantom excels in stealth gameplay as her abilities complement outsmarting rival players with trickery and deception.

Phantoms Optic Camo ability can cloak her and her teammates for a short duration, making her great for setting up ambushes; in addition, Phantom can reveal enemy locations in the surrounding area thanks to her second ability, Portable Scout.

Lucinda is a great hero with high damage potential and the ability to manipulate the map and heroes in close vicinity to where she deploys her skills. Because of her wide-hitting abilities, most players will always be ill-prepared to deal with Lucidna and her crowd-control effects simultaneously.

Lucidna's Absolute Gravity skill is a ranged projectile that creates a temporal black hole that sucks targets in, forcing them in or out of range depending on the need. Lucinda's second ability synergizes well with the rest of her kit, granting her a thrown grenade that ignites a significant area in flam, causing damage over time.

Yong can be a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield thanks to his tactical abilities, which make enemy positioning useless. Rival players will have little to no advantage, with Yong calling out their hiding places every chance he gets and making their planning and teamwork useless.

Yong's ability, Divulge, allows him to relay highly accurate player positions to his teammates in a wide area and even go through walls. Yong can also see rival player footprints with his track'n'trace ability and get a heads-up to possibly unsafe locations.

A strong defense can be a hard shell to crack for any team composition and can be especially helpful to solo players; thankfully, Watchman covers this area exceptionally well. Watchmen is a full-on tank character that uses the term shelter in place literally. Watchman's first ability is called Auto Guard and provides him with a shield upon receiving damage.

Watchman's second ability is called Bunkers Away, which allows him to place a barrier down for himself and his teammates for cover. Watchman's ultimate is also very useful, as he can summon an auto-seeking turret with freezing ammunition.

Beau is a great hero to choose in any game mode, whether teaming up with other players or going solo in battle royal. As one of the highest damaging heroes in the game, Beau can be an absolute terror for rival players thanks to his abilities that deal high damage in a large area; players will have to think before they engage Beau, which gives players using him more control over how their rivals play.

Beau's ultimate ability is Cluster Bomb which chucks a highly explosive grenade that sets off a series of chain explosions damaging all enemies in the area. Beau also gets the ability Frenzy Blast which throws three separate grenades at a distance, also damaging enemies in a wide area. However, the range of this ability is not significant.

Sunil has a strong argument for being one of the strongest, if not the strongest, support heroes in Farlight 84. Thanks to his wide array of buffs he can provide to the DPS heroes on the team, along with the protections he provides, make him invaluable in team play but can also allow him to hold his own in solo.

Sunil's first ability is called Enhanced Hologram; this ability cleanses teammates and Sunil of negative effects from other players and increases movement speed for a short duration. Sunil can also deploy a jump booster for getting around obstacles quicker and has a base movement speed increase while firing a weapon, thanks to his passive.

Captain is a versatile hero in Farlight 84, able to cause crowd control effects and protect allies and himself from damage. Captain may not be exceptional in solo lay, but as a part of a team, he can be the linchpin when it comes to engaging enemy teams and coming out on top.

Captain's first ability is the Freeze Gun, an additional weapon that Captain has access to, that, when triggered, will slow and heavily damage enemies over time. Captain's second ability is Barrier Deployment which sets up a domed shield that protects all inside from all harm.

Momoi is a great all-around hero with various positive traits to help a team go the distance or keep her ahead of the curve in solo play. Momoi can be thought of as a support, but she can also be a hard target to deal with in fights. Momoi's Supply Drop ability allows her to frequently change her loadout and be ready for any type of situation.

In contrast, her second ability, Smoke Bomb, allows her to set up ambushes or quickly disengage when in a jam. Thanks to Momoi's passive, she and her team benefit from being able to use health kits and gain shields quicker than typical heroes.

When it comes down to support, there is no team that will not want a Ceana on the roster; thanks to her ranged healing abilities Ceana appropriately takes the throne as the top support in the game. Ceana's first ability, Medi-EX, sends out drones to her teammates, healing them or reviving them from a safe position.

Ceana's second ability is called Restoration Field, which gradually heals and repairs shields for teammates. Finally, Ceana's passive Emergency Aid is the final nail in the coffin for enemy teams as it allows her to heal and revive players faster, which guarantees to keep them in the fight longer.

M.K.R is nearly a one-robot army in Farlight 84 as he has some of the highest damage capabilities in the game thanks to using his abilities together to clear the field and move on to the next target.

M.K.R specializes in firing from all cylinders thanks to his first ability, Fatal Volley, which shoots out a wave of rocket projectiles hitting everything in front of him. An extremely helpful ability is his Spray'NPray which, for a short duration, suspends the ammo limit for the weapon that M.K.R is firing, allowing him infinite ammo.

Inside Farlight 84, Maggie is the go-to hero for most players thanks to her overwhelming ability to take on all comers with lighting-fast mobility and ability to navigate the battlefield, unlike any other hero.

Maggie's first ability is called Aero Zoom, which overcharges her jetpack and allows her more frequent use, granting her blinding speed, which allows her to use her second ability, Blast Delivery, more effectively as players don't see the thrown grenade. These abilities, paired with Maggie's passive, Jet Boost, make her a menace in the game who can't be caught, similar to Overwatch 2's Tracer.

Farlight 84 is available to play on IOS, Android, and PC via Steam
