When people first hear about Apex Legends , they most likely assume it’s a game about characters shooting guns, and though that isn’t an incorrect assumption, Respawn Entertainment has crafted a gameplay experience with a lot more depth than that. A primary example of that depth is the healer legend Lifel
Upon learning about her parent’s war profiteering, Lifeline decided to commit herself to help those in need by enlisting in the Frontier Corps. They’re essentially the Peace Corps of the Apex Legends/ Titanfall universe and are an organization focused on aiding Frontier communities who are in desperate need of h
One of the main things these characters have in common is that their abilities frequently give away their exact locations at range, either through sound or visual cues. Contrast that with characters like Wraith or Bangalore, whose abilities serve to obscure their locations, and it’s easy to see why the characters outlined above are inferior choi
Mirage’s bamboozles can disorient enemy players, and his passive, which makes him invisible as he is reviving a teammate, is a good addition to any team, too. Mad Maggie can help on the offensive and keep enemy teams at bay with her Riot Drills. Alternatively, players can rotate or ambush a team with her Ultim
It’s also worth noting that in Solo Mode, one would expect far more 1v1 fights than in team play. As such, Gibraltar’s Defensive Bombardment isn’t as useful as it is in team play due to the fact that it’s unlikely anyone would want to use this on just one enemy. The end game could pose a rare exception, as this stage will have multiple opponents in a steadily-shrinking r
A few months ago, Respawn buffed Mirage’s Ultimate Ability by making him completely invisible during its use , as opposed to rendering the character’s outline while active as it had previously. As of Season 2, players also have the option to uncloak from the invisible state as they wish. These were all welcome chan
Talking in Norse anecdotes and having a raven companion isn’t just an act, Bloodhound strongly believes in the Norse gods. They call on them to help guide them during a hunt and believe that the gods are the one who imbues them with their other-worldly tracking abilit
In case you weren’t aware, Apex Legends has absolutely no fall damage. It doesn’t matter how high you are, or how low your health is when falling— you’ll never get hurt from falling alone. This is an important thing to know, because it leaves the door open for all kinds of new and interesting tactics. With this game, you can jump off a huge cliff, all the way down to an enemy position and surprise t
And, while most legends can’t keep up with Bloodhound’s elevated speed in his Ultimate, Vantage, and Revenant’s Tactical should help close distance, ensuring all party members can have an input in the fi
This makes sense considering Bloodhound’s best skills revolve around tracking their target, so it would make sense they would want a pair of eyes high in the sky that could provide additional info a human couldn’t gather with their own e
When you read about Lifeline’s personal story and journey from the daughter of war profiteers to being a world-class healer and contributing member of the Frontier Corps, you scratch your head as to why she’s in the Apex Legends Updates Ga
If it wasn’t for them being so callous, who knows if she would have committed herself to help those who were less fortunate? In a way, players should be thankful for her parents showing her right from wrong in the worst of w
Gibraltar already has one of the largest hitboxes in the game. This makes him much easier to hit than characters with smaller hitboxes, such as Wraith and Lifeline. Pair that with the fact that both his Gun Shield and Dome of Protection abilities give away his location, and it presents real challenges in competitive Solo p
Bloodhound is great at gathering information and allowing a team to position themselves in a way that gains a clear advantage in any given scenario. As prefaced previously, Bangalore’s smoke can help players rotate freely. And, with Digital Threat optic out of rotation, it can also be used to support Bloodhound’s Ultimate. Add to that Lifeline’s D.O.C drone, players are guaranteed free revives should they go down in the heat of the bat
Players looking to use a Legend from Assault, Support, and Controller class can give this comp a go. Caustic is an extremely viable Controller legend, and he can help reinforce the defenses in a building. Alternatively, he can box enemy players out and use his Ultimate to gain a strong gunfight advant
This Legend is the stuff of nightmares. Area denial and the constant threat of being firebombed would drastically shift the meta, likely demanding that mobility take a front seat in selecting characters. This Legend had better come with a skin for The Trashcan
In team play, the Dome Shield can be useful to protect players from incoming damage, giving them space to revive teammates and to avoid Gibraltar’s bombardment should a player choose to use it. However, in Solos, in spite of any protection, its high visibility makes Gibraltar a target by drawing attention from other players. Because it’s so short, Gibraltar can only move so far away from it before it times out. Because it gives away his location, the use of the shield leaves him vulnerable to snipers, counter-strike attacks, and so
