Gibraltar’s dome shield has always been wonderful, though it is undergoing some changes soon. When thrown onto the ground, the dome gives protection to all incoming bullets, explosions, and eve nox gas, which is wonderful. It acts as a solid wall that you can walk through. As of March 9 though, it will no longer offer 15% faster use for healing items while within the dome. This previously made it an incredible way for a whole team to heal up, even when out in the open, but this is no longer the case. Still, Gibraltar is able to fast revive any enemies downed within the dome, making it invalua
Pathfinder can help the whole squad reach a vantage point when he uses his Zipline Gun ultimate ability. One end deploys where he’s standing, and the other where the player is aiming. It’s also helpful for outrunning the ring. Speaking of the ring, Pathfinder’s passive ability lets him scan survey beacons scattered around the map in order to learn the next ring’s location. Knowing where to go next in **Apex Legends Updates Legends ** will help alleviate some anxiety for new players, since they won’t have to worry about planning on the
Bloodhound is a nonbinary character so gender was of no consequence when choosing a voice actor. Allegra Clark has worked on several games in the past as she voiced Cynthia in Pokemon Masters and Dorothea and Shamir in Fire Emblem: Three Hou
Branscomb Richmond is a Native American who can do it all as he is an actor, stuntman, producer, and director. He has been in the business since 1963, but this was his first time serving as a voice actor in a video g
To offset the damage the new mini-rings will be causing to everyone on the map, a new item has finally been released. This item was offhandedly mentioned in a Respawn press release at the beginning of the season, but was never elaborated on, so I’m glad to see it’s finally in the game. The Heat Shields are not body shields as I assumed they were from the title, but instead they are essentially ring deflectors. They act a bit like Gibraltar’s dome shield, however they keep the ring out, not bullets, giving you a chance to heal up and revive your team if you get caught in the ring, running for your l
When a meltdown destroyed the facility that housed their engineer parents, a young Bloodhound was adopted by their uncle Artur and taught the Old Ways. While the Old Ways rejected modern technology in place of a love for nature, Bloodhound was always fascinated with modern developments. The fusion of traditional hunting methods with modern gadgetry became their focus as a hunter, transforming them into the Outlands’ best game hun
The Chaos Theory Collection Event has begun, and if you’re an experienced Apex Legends player you know exactly what that means. There are loads of unique skins for legends and weapon alike available to trade your Apex Coins for, and if you buy them all, you get the Bangalore heirloom. Heirlooms are rare so this is a nice offer, but hardly the most essential. If you’re a new player and tempted to invest in Apex Legends, you’re better off looking at buying the battle p
Valkyrie is one of the more recent additions to Apex Legends , and she’s arguably the most mobile character in the game currently. This is thanks to the fact that she can jetpack regularly, and her ultimate ability essentially turns her into a jump tower for teammates, launching the squad high in the air to zip down into another locat
R-301 Carbine (Assault Rifle): Perhaps one of the most accessible ARs in the game, the naturally-high damage output and decent handling of the weapon makes this an all-rounder companion for the tracker. This allows Bloodhound to attack enemies on the get-go, or even use this in conjunction with long-ranged optics to become a makeshift sni
Bangalore’s tactical ability will also help her stay alive. The Smoke Launcher has a decent range, and blankets the impact zone with a thick fog, interrupting sight lines. Launching smoke at the ground when caught unawares is a great way to make a quick escape. Rolling Thunder, Bangalore’s ultimate, will also help newcomers situate themselves in battle by disorienting and scattering enemies. Rolling Thunder drops artillery in advancing rows from where its marker is thrown, and then each detonates in the same seque
Apex Legends is a particularly novel battle royale game for two reasons: every legend has their own unique playstyle, and there are three maps that are played in rotations. The roster in Apex Legends is pretty well balanced, all things considered, with no one legend outshining the rest in every situat
JB Blanc truly commands a presence when he voices Caustic and the sound effects behind each of his lines definitely add to the appeal. He was recently a voice in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War as Arash Kadivar, although you might actually recognize him from his time as Dr. Barry Goodman on a show called Better Call S
