The narration and supplementary materials highlight they're a force to be reckoned with, as no Allomancer - save maybe for a Mistborn burning Atium or an Inquisitor - can easily emerge unscathed from a fight with a team of Hazekillers. Unfortunately for them, the Hazekillers we actually see in action are always extras pitted against main characters.
