Comparison

Both Hayato and Dasha are major characters in Free Fire, and it is not easy to prioritize one over the other.

The latter's ability significantly reduces the recovery time and damage from falls. It reduces recoil build-up and the maximum recoil of the player, which is quite viable during squad or solo combats. The reduction of the weapon's recoil would assist the players in firing much more efficiently and effectively.

Though Hayato has a passive ability, it is more defensive and is not of much help during an aggressive gunfight, like Dasha's. Hence, she might be a more suitable choice, with two unique abilities in one skill set giving players a better edge over enemies.

Both can be leveled up to maximize their potential on the field. As both characters are available in Free Fire and are obtainable individually, the decision to equip either is subjective.
