Best Far Cry 5 Guns for Hire Companions: All 9 Ranked

8. Sharky Boshaw

Sharky’s weapon of choice is a flamethrower, which can be great for crowd control on large groups of enemies. However, fire in a Far Cry game is very dangerous as it spreads quickly and tends to do more harm than good. He has a huge potential to end up making things more chaotic, rather than helping you secure an easy victory in battle.

Sharky has the Fire It Up and Shatter Proof buffs, which help with reduced explosive damage and extra attack power. He is not a bad companion by any means, but using him opens up the potential for things to go wrong much more quickly than other companions.
