what does the black hat do?

Very interesting.
JayDizzle said:Other than using it to be an asshat, you can also grab your care packages from afar (great for setting traps in case the other team has a klepto problem) and even the Care Packages that got accidentally dropped off the map or on an out-of-the-way place.
EX: The Gas Station Roof on Standoff is a great place to leave presents swinging in the wind.
You get to unlock the Black Hat equipment at Level 25 (you can swap it in for Flash, Sensors, etc.).
You only get two (I assume you can get more once you unlock Scavenger but I haven't gotten that far yet) but with one Black Hat, you can do a mountain of things.
Rewire bouncing betty mines, electric grenade sticks, Sentry Guns...
Hack Quadrotors, Stealth Helicopters...
Or like what was said before, steal or simply retrieve Care Packages as long as they're in-range.
