| Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic. |
- The Night Hawk is useful for longer ranges or in the storm, as its thermal view allows players to see through areas with thick fog.
- Due to its thermal scope, the weapon is useful against invisible enemies, such as Predator, or those using his cloaking device.
- In final circles, it can be used to spot any enemies camping or peeking around corners without risking much, as the high damage per shot can send enemies back to heal.

- The Night Hawk uses the same Thermal effect as the Thermal Fish, unlike the Thermal Scoped Assault Rifle which uses a Blue and Orange filter.
- Upon release, if you knocked or eliminated another player with The Night Hawk, it would display a string of seemingly random characters across the elimination feed. This also occurred with the Shadow Tracker, but both issues were patched.
