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

The Respawn team buffed the character’s Eye of the Allfather Tactical Ability for Season 2, adding adjustments that improved its potential to briefly expose hidden enemies and follow their movements. This tactical is useful in a team play situation, as teammates can also learn enemies’ locations and hone in on them as a group. However, the fact that this tactical exposes the player’s own whereabouts fully counters any potential benefits in So

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

A few months ago, additional backpack space would not have been a big deal, but the recent nerfs to shotgun ammunition capacity would have people eyeing this Legend carefully. The ability to find nearby loot is always going to be valuable as well, and Nomad would likely earn a spot in competitive squads quite eas

However, one of the little known facts about this game is that you can actually slide indefinitely while moving down a hill or a slope of any kind. What this means is that you can just keep sliding down a hill without stopping, all the way to the end. Smart players can use this to their advantage, as sliding is much faster than runn

Every person who plays _ Apex Legends Walkthrough Legends _ with regularity is aware that, upon being knocked, Mirage leaves a decoy behind and has a few seconds to reposition. Solos will render this ability mostly useless, except possibly in the case where Mirage has a Gold Knockdown shield that allows them to self-revive. But even so, an enemy would likely see this character in a downed state and, in order to finish the kills, chase the character until they materialize. Therefore, it seems unlikely that the Encore! Passive Ability will have much use in So

We've already covered the fact that she can revive players faster than any other character, but her abilities don't only benefit everyone around her. Lifeline has the bonus that she can restore health and shields at 75% of the time it takes everyone else

This can turn the tide in battle, and if you're smart about refreshing your shields, with Lifeline's quickness doing so you can create a great advantage for yourself. What good is a healer if they can't take care of themselves from time to t

Her nickname Wattson is an obvious play on her fascination with technology and electronics. Respawn Entertainment has done a great job of creating unique characters with specific powers and somehow end up naming them things that just feel ri

It may sound cliché on the surface, but Lifeline growing up as the child of wealthy war profiteers helped her shape what she wanted to do with her life. As she grew up and began to understand that her family's wealth came at a price, she quickly came to resent them and everything they stood

A potential leak through datamining has revealed what Apex Legends may look like in the future, with new abilities and a number of Legend characters. These may be old concepts that have not been developed, or they may be far al

Octane does little that other characters don’t do better. Players have come up with some creative uses for the Launch Pad Ultimate Ability, but ultimately, gamers can reposition themselves just as quickly and even reach higher areas using Pathfinder’s zip line and grap

Lifeline is very much an empathetic soul who wants to help those in need and make a real difference in the world, but that doesn't mean she's a pushover. She is very sarcastic and callous which directly goes against the assumptions one makes about people who are as helpful as she

Caustic's gas traps are one of the most frustrating things to encounter in the game. Finding yourself in the middle of a gas maze almost always results in elimination, and the traps can seem way too OP as a result. Luckily, there IS a way to counter the traps (aside from utilizing tactical abilities). Simply shoot the red portion of the trap (located near the bottom) in order to disable it, allowing safe passage for you and your team. Easy pe

Blisk would be another creative addition to the game that emphasize maximum teamwork for maximum reward. This could even turn teammates who would otherwise go at it alone into willing partners who see the benefit in working together, or rather, the incentive of being a team pla
