Talk about the potential for controversy and frustration. A good sniper can often make it feel as though one has not played a game, they merely ran along until the sniper spotted them from a distance. This is an extreme, but one wonders about the reception to squads with this Sniper toolkit and a competent Pathfin

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 Ga

"Wraith was the hardest character for me to find the focus on," he says in the video. "The voices in the head presented, like, a real problem because our game is a sci-fi game. It's not a fantasy… so it can't be, like, spiri

When you spend a majority of your life committed to helping those in need, you're bound to pick up a few tricks of the trade along the way. Along with being a superb healer, Lifeline can revive fallen teammates faster than any other character in Apex Legen

For now, we can only wait and see if this datamined information is relevant, or simply old conceptional work that was never removed from the game. Once again, it would seem odd to have so many Legends in development considering the slow speed with which two have been released so

The voice of Bloodhound was a mystery for a long time and went hand in hand with the Apex Legends community trying to figure out their gender. This was all before Respawn Entertainment officially announced that Bloodhound was non-binary, which only added to the mystery box that was their charac

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

One thing to be said is that this is a pretty unique rifle, kicking out a horizontal spread of three simultaneous shots per trigger pull, which can really help with tracking long distance targets. You can tighten the spread a bit with the precision choke hop-up mod. But again, it is still a sniper ri

While not ideal for team play, coordinated teams can still use this noisiness to their advantage. A loud Bloodhound can provide a distraction to opposing teams, allowing the non-Bloodhound players to quickly pick off enemies as they reveal themsel

If you're familiar with the characters in Apex Legends, then you are familiar with the adrenaline junkie known as Octane. He's an energetic guy who happens to sport a pair of bionic legs due to him blowing them off with a grenade in the pursuit of a race track rec

Every person who plays _ Apex 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

Octane’s Stim Tactical Ability gives players a 30% speed increase, but it requires health to use and, like Bloodhound’s Ultimate, it’s noisy. Contrast this to Bangalore who can move more quickly when taking damage and doesn’t make additional noise leveraging this ability. Typically, a Bangalore can also hide their exact whereabouts in smoke for an added layer of protection. And, while Octane’s on-demand speed boost can be useful in situations, such as getting loot at the start of the game, the 10% health reduction may not be worth it to the average player—particularly when players can use Pathfinder’s grapple for similar purposes while taking no health l

It also helps in building up an intimidating reputation if your hunting and tracking skills are the only things anyone knows about you. If they can't understand you, then there's a strong chance they won't know what to expect from

This lightweight sniper rifle has a few advantages that help to combat the drawbacks of its weapon class, but ultimately still has a difficult time overcoming them. It kicks out bullets faster than its counterparts, keeping a little more utility as you track your shots and the enemy closes

The bigger concern is Mirage’s Psyche Out Tactical Ability, which allows the character to deploy a decoy. This once-useful skill became less useful in recent months as people who play the game frequently can easily tell a decoy from an actual Mirage character simply by the way it mo

Apex Legends is a battle royale game that wasn't only designed and developed to take advantage of the new hot video game genre, but it seems it provided developer Respawn Entertainment with a chance to spread their creative wings. The game launched with a selection of legends who vary in skills, backgrounds, and personalit
