Apex Legends: How To Counter High-Ground Camping Tactics

Along with being added to the game, Wattson was also given a skin for the second season. The skin is called Hot Rod and embraces the engineering she's so familiar with. Its design seems to be a mix of steampunk and classic car inspirations that come together to form an interesting and very cool aesthe


The drone already highlights enemies within 30m of it, but that's a pretty tiny bubble. This feature encompasses the entire distance that the drone can cover from its launch area. It's a big area to cover, and it doesn't reveal their exact locations. But if they're inside the drone's flight area, they're close enough to require keeping your guard


The R-301 Carbine is arguably the best gun in the game and is usually a staple in the inventory of players looking to take home a championship. It has very little recoil and simply feels the best when in a firefight or extended engagement with an enemy t


Caustic’s traps hurt undead Legends just as they hurt Legends. When Mirage uses his decoy, it appears red to Shadow Legends and is therefore effective because it's hard for these undead beings to tell the difference between Mirage and his decoy. On the other hand, Wattson’s Ultimate is less useful at the top 10 stage because there's no need to defend against bombardments and grenades. Crypto is also less useful because his skills require him to be stationary but Shadow Legends can easily spot him from a distance even if he is only partially exposed. To learn which Legends are best and worst for the mode, check out TheGamer's PS5 Money Guide to this to


If coordinated with the rest of your squad , using it as a setup to ambush an entrenched team puts you in the perfect position to start and end the fight very quickly. However, coordination is absolutely key to taking getting the most out of it, because while it's a critical advantage, it can be overturned within the span of a few seco

If possible, coordinate with squadmates to make sure team members don’t arrive to fight the opposing squad one by one, making each player an easy target for a series of consecutive 3v1s, all in the opposing team’s favor. Teams will often have a player standing lookout to spot teammates from specific directions, and sometimes players throw traps if they know the terrain has limited access points, such as a Wattson fence at the end of the zip line that gets a character to the mountain area. Anticipate this, and be prepared to engage in zip line hopping tactics or try to use the traps the squad’s advantage. For instance, a team member playing as Caustic is immune to the damage effects of enemy Caustic gas traps and can still see players through them, so a player playing as Caustic can set off the enemy trap and leverage the low visibility to their advant


But by far the most interesting concept would be the Killer Norman Bates. He could have a disguise mode where he appears to be a survivor as Norman Bates, but switches to Mother to attack survivors. Having the iconic music play whenever he attacks would make for incredible jumpsca


Ripley would have to be the survivor with perks for sneaking and maybe a gadget or two for Killer detection/distraction. Having the Xenomorph as the Killer would be really fun, hard to see thanks to it’s black shell, deals damage with acidic blood whenever it’s damage by a pallet or something, and then be very, very sneaky. Think a multiplayer version of Alien Isolation and you get the i


The rescue ship countdown begins the moment there are 10 Legends left in the game. By taking out other Legends early, players can ensure they have a large radius to get to the rescue ship when it arrives. A bigger play area provides fewer opportunities for Shadow Legends to spot still-alive Legends as they maneuver toward the s


If a team has circle advantage in a later phase of the game, there’s rarely a reason to try to take on a high-ground opponent. Because the circle’s closure will require them to have to drop down and push toward the circle anyway, fighting them when they’re on more level terrain is the way to go. If an opposing team waits until the circle is closing to move from the high ground position, this is a great time for a Bangalore’s or a Gibraltar to use their ultimate. This can provide a major impediment as the team must now face a barrage of damage within the circle or risk getting caught in the area outside the circle, which rapidly depletes players’ hea


This might seem a bit silly, but rest assured, it's very effective. Enemy squads tend to react very strongly to the presence of a drone, culminating in one of two actions. They'll either shoot at it obsessively or immediately run away and try to lose it. These behaviors can be used to your advant


Apex Legends ' third season sees hacker extraordinaire Crypto added to the existing roster , and his unique skill set definitely shakes things up. All of Crypto's abilities revolve around the use of his Surveillance Drone, a deployable airborne robot that is definitely a lot more than a glorified mobile security camera. If you want to get good with Crypto, then you're going to need to get extremely familiar with its capabilit
