One of the best features in Free Fire that has always been rated highly by the fans is the unique character system. Each and every single one of them comes with a unique skill that can be mix and match with each other to create a skillset for your characters to equip before a match. Not all characters are created equal, however. While some can be used universally on any build like DJ Alok's Drop the Beat, Rafael's skill is pretty situational - you have to level it to the maximum to get the best results.

1 - Rafael's Backstory

Rafael is a professional soldier whose life is filled with war, guns, and killing. The guy is known on the battlefield as "the Nameless Killer". However, every party has to end - Rafael eventually got bored with the mercenary life of death and destruction - he gave up the guns, find a girl, and create a family. But he did not expect his old enemies to catch up - they ambush Rafael and killed his wife. Afterward, Rafael decided to go on a rampaging quest for revenge and deal with his enemies once and for all.

2 - Rafael's Ability "Dead Silent"

Rafael's ability is probably what gives him his nickname - enemies would not be able to see their death coming at all. Rafael's ability is strong at long and medium-range, especially if the enemies haven't detected the user yet.

3 - Tips and tricks on using Rafael

Overall, Rafael is strong if you are using a sniper or semi sniper build, poking enemies from afar. While providing no stat bonuses, Dead Silent prevent your location to be displayed on the minimap, which means you can snipe one member from a team and there is nothing they can do about it.

When using Rafael's ability, it is best to carry a Silencer or Muzzle, as while you can't be seen on the map, they can still guess your location based on the sound of the gun. Moco and Laura are the two best characters to use in combination with Rafael's Dead Silent. It is best that you level up the skill ASAP, as the 90s cooldown is reduced to 40 at the max level.
