Gibraltar, as well as Caustic, both have Fortified Passive Perks that allows these characters to take 15% more damage and also prevents the movement slowdown that other characters get upon taking shots. Developed as a response to their under-utilization as players gravitated toward stronger characters, this still hasn’t done much to increase Gibraltar’s popularity with gam

The game certainly has its share of technical issues, with one of the most frequent being its code:net and code:leaf server errors . But that’s not what’s happening here, either. In fact, in most of these cases, viewers are simply experiencing tricks of the eye. Though, in some cases, they might include minor lag issues or minor graphics rendering probl

Octane's real name isn't just a play on the high-octane type of stunts he loves to perform, it's a play on his real first name. Octavio Silva, more widely known as Octane is a legend of Latino descent and helps diversify the Apex Games in several w

Sometimes, in a 3v3 team play situation, Mirage players can get away with this in the confusion of a fight, where bullets, smoke, and gas all contribute to the chaos. In a 1v1 Solo Mode situation, it’s hard to say that the decoy will do much beyond allowing the enemy to infer a Mirage’s location based on the direction the decoy r

After Octane received his new bionic legs he felt that he had to push himself to bigger and bolder things. As an adrenaline junkie, he was focused on chasing his next high in hopes of entertaining the masses in the process. The Apex Games were a timely opportunity that sparked his inter

Octane may be all about the stunts, but it's rooted in understanding that everything great comes at a price. During a match in the Apex Legends Rift Relics Games, he's able to inject himself with a stim that gives him exceptional speed but comes at the loss of losing a little bit of life. This is due to the idea that by injecting himself he's partially doing damage to hims

While players at the non-competitive team level play a variety of characters for different reasons, players vying for a Solos crown while playing as one of the game’s less-popular characters may not stand much of a cha

Respawn Entertainment announced that it will soon introduce Solos as a limited time mode in _ Apex Legends _ . This revelation follows speculation that a previous Electronic Arts statement referring to a major event involving "one of the most fan-requested features since the launch of Apex" was simply an option for no-fill squa

For instance, Pathfinder has a unique set of skills that many find make this character a superior player for competitive play. During the recent ESPN EXP Apex Legends Invitational, nearly every professional team had a Pathfinder on the team in every game. In several cases, Pathfinder’s zip line specifically aided in a team’s

This makes sense because the drop from the Supply Ship or any other high area such as an out-of-bound mountaintop zone would take several moments, which explains the delay between the kill feed and the visual render

Now this is a creative character that would likely be more entertaining than competitive viable. Burglar’s Best Friend is always welcome for its mobility, while the rest is simply for getting the best loot to help

This has since given Octane even less of an appreciation for his legs and has led to bigger and wilder stunts. Lifeline probably still doesn't feel well knowing he successfully guilted her into doing

The dirt rises higher than one might expect, which causes it to appear in front of the storm as a visual obstruction. As the video continues, the environment around Lifeline produces a dirt-like trail as the player moves forw

A potential leak through datamining has revealed what Apex Legends may look like in the future, with new abilities and a number of Legend characters. These may be old concepts that have not been developed, or they may be far al

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

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.
