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
This type of speech has a lot to do with Bloodhound's beliefs and purpose and tie directly into why they decided to participate in the Apex Games. It also explains why Bloodhound's companion happens to be a mysterious ra
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
Octane's ultimate ability allows him to throw down a trampoline that can be used by friends or foes and launches people in the air as they come in contact with it. If the person using Octane is strategic and skilled enough it can be used in several ways to create real tactical advantages on the battlefi
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
The voice of Bloodhound was a mystery for a long time and went hand in hand with the Apex 2.0 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
It can be used as both a retreat device as well as a tool to give you leverage and the high-ground during an aggressive instigation of combat. Using it to get to ziplines is also another pro-style maneu
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
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
Every legend in the Apex Games has a type that puts them in a certain classification. These types give players a quick understanding of the type of play-style that best fits each specific legend. Bloodhound is a tracker which means they're best suited for aggressive players who like to chase down other teams or play
Bloodhound is known across the Outlands as a world-class tracker and hunter, so people know what they're in for when they come across them. In a culture centered around the type of blood sport that is the Apex Games, you know you're special if you stand out as the best of the b
Thankfully Octane has the passive ability to recover his health back over time which balances the use of the stim while also allowing him to always gain back his health despite a lack of first aid it
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
Some of these rumors include the idea that Bloodhound is super rich and is simply bored with life while others think they're a bloodthirsty murderer. There's also a crazy rumor that they're a half-bat, and another that suggests the lack of identity is due to them being a former sl
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
Alter is one of the strongest characters in Apex Legends right now. Players can use her tactical skills to sift in and out of buildings, escape quickly, or gain elevated positioning. They can also use the tactical to unnerve enemy players by kidnapping them into their room if they’re on the roof of a building. The ultimate ability, however, makes this comp work really well as it allows players to fall back to a predetermined s
