Just like with the Off The Record skin discussed in the last entry, the Bootlegger skin has a sister skin that's pretty much a palette swap. This one also happens to be the variant that places an emphasis on red, black, and white as its color focus. This skin makes Loba look very dapper and fits into the aesthetic theme of the entire season. People will often use the phrase "dressed to kill" and Loba is communicating every bit of it with this outfit. It could also be mistaken as someone's created character in Red Dead Onli
It's unclear whether this legend is tied to the Syndicate, Hammond Robotics, or both. It could also end up being a legend tied to neither, but maybe one who was experimented on and had the ability naturally, before they infused Revenant with
His skin is called Fool's Gold and gives off strong conquistador vibes. He looks like a weird mix between a famous conquistador and a bumbling steampunk pilot. Mirage seems to often be toeing the line between competent threat and naive goofball. It's kind of his thing at this po
About a month ago, after a week-long delay due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, Apex Legends introduced Season 5: Fortune's Favor. It’s the most successful season launch to date , according to a recent press release. Anecdotally, I can attest to the fact that I’ve put hundreds of hours into the game since the beginning of the pande
The Slum Lanes can be a bit of a maze to newer players but the good thing about this area is that it can be easy to get lost when meeting up with other players. Unless someone is using Bloodhound or Crypto, this area is easy to get the jump on others and escape if needed. The area has a lot of loot chests here as well but they are spread out and most of the loot is just lying on the floor in each building. Not a lot of players come to this location and is a good place to go if avoidance of the pack is the strat
Most teams still feel the need to have one member use Lifeline, but that may change as more and more people get used to Loba. There comes a point when healing isn't good enough and teams will need additional abilities Lifeline doesn't have to turn the fight in their fa
When the COVID-19 crisis suddenly began ravaging communities around the world, national governments could offer little assurance to anxious citizens. We were lucky if we got anything more than contradictory instructions about masks, some vague instructions for handwashing and orders to "stay ho
Some may scoff at this entry as both the skin and weapon seem to not be befitting of this list at first glance. The Hemlok has come into favor in the Season 5 meta, so it belongs on this list in some capacity. As for the skin, it's a tougher sell. Is it easy on the eyes and heavily desired? No, not really. It does however feature an organic looking design that makes it look unique and also plays into the Sparrow lore of the franchise as a whole. With all of that considered it seems that the #7 spot made all too much se
The Off The Record skin for Loba happens to be of her four extremely rare cosmetics. It has a sister skin that keeps much of the same shape and looks but changes the entire color scheme of the outfit. Off The Record focuses on a red, black, and white look that seems to just be a combination that always looks good. This skin makes Loba look like she's the main character in a cyberpunk game or maybe even a high-end assassin. She tends to walk the line of femininity and intimidation, but this skin is 100% the lat
It’s easy to forget that the people making and supporting your favorite summer games are going through abrupt changes in their own lives, yet they continue to deliver new content to keep players enga
Another highly-populated area, the Market is a tough one as there are tons of different locations to enter from, including a roof opening where players can get the drop on others firing from unsuspecting players. There is a ton of loot here but it's definitely a riskier area than the Artillery and if dropping here, make sure your skills are up to the task. This location will usually be picked as a secondary alternative for most players if their first pick isn't to their liking for whatever reason making it high on the list for combat locations. If this is the first landing place, a great secondary location to go right after is the Hydro Dam that also has a good number of loot bo
Sometimes in games, it feels like cosmetic items are universal and meant to work with a variety of characters, and sometimes it feels like they were made for an unnamed perfect pairing. The Gilded Hunt skin for the Charge Rifle definitely feels like the latter as the aesthetics of it magnetize it to the engineering legend, Wattson. The stark white coloring with subtle patterns makes it feel more like a tool and less like a weapon. Considering she dabbles with electricity, maybe the Charge Rifle is Wattson's preferred gun of cho
