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

The Hemlok fulfills the role of the standard, three round burst firing assault rifle that you're probably familiar with from every other FPS game. While it manages to succeed in playing the role, it doesn't tend to do it overly well at any po

Being from a planet near King's Canyon, he was more than willing to try out this new adventure alongside his friends and colleagues. It also helps that his abilities give him a real advantage on the battlefi

Play five minute of Apex Legends , and you'll quickly learn that sliding is key. Combat is fast and high octane in this game, and if you don't slide, you won't make it very far. Sliding is great because you do literally anything while sliding. You can heal, reload and shoot all while sliding. Doing all of these complex actions might take a little bit of practice, but the veterans all know how to slide with st

When you're looting or switching out weapons, it's important to keep moving. Even when it feels like you need to stand still to do something, there's usually a way to move around slightly from side to side, which makes it harder for you to be hit by an enemy. This is a tactic used by Fortnite players and PUBG players, who "wiggle" from side to side anytime they find themselves station

But of course, being limited to two selections at a time, you’re inevitably going to have to make some tough calls as you’re ravenously vacuuming loot into your backpack. So which ones do you take into battle, and which ones get left in the dust? Knowing the answers to this question ahead of time can mean the difference between victory and def

However, one of the little known facts about this game is that you can actually slide indefinitely while moving down a hill or a slope of any kind. What this means is that you can just keep sliding down a hill without stopping, all the way to the end. Smart players can use this to their advantage, as sliding is much faster than runn

Opening a door is boring. Violently kicking it open is where it's at! There may come a time when you are unable to open a door - someone is on the other side, or there's a dangerous gas trap waiting to be tripped. Luckily, you can knock down doors by running at it and holding the melee button. Your character will burst down the door, which in turn will knock over an enemy or disable a gas trap! Respawn really did think of everyth

Taking the dubious honor of this list's bottom entry is this unremarkable semi-auto pistol. The magazine size is best described as claustrophobic and it has the weakest damage output in the game, barring maybe the melee attack. But even that has redeeming qualit

A skilled player can do perfectly fine using the Longbow, but it's a bit slow. The damage per shot is very solid, but the DPS suffers greatly from the lag between shots, and it leaves your opponents a lot of room to get into cover for a quick heal. It's not a bad gun, but high DPS, high-pressure weapons result in decisive victories far more of

apex legends guide Legends has a balanced and satisfying spread of weapons, providing more than enough options to keep things fun and varied, but without going overboard and overwhelming us with sheer volume. The gunplay itself is slick, smooth and fast-paced, being more than a little reminiscent of Titanfall ’s enjoyable shooting mechan

He's very lucky that it only blew off his legs because a matter of inches could have resulted in him losing much more of his body. Maybe he'll have a counterpart who lost their arms and is introduced as a legend in the game in the fut

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

Moving fast in Apex Legends is so important that players are quickly figuring out ways to move even just a little bit speedier than normal. It didn't take long for players to figure out that when you holster your weapon, movement speed goes up a little bit. Even though this increase might be pretty small, it still matt

Just yesterday, Respawn Entertainment announced the _ Apex Legends _ Iron Crown Collection Event, which will coincide with a limited time Solos Mode. But because _ Apex Legends _ has its roots in team play, some people believe this is an unusual option for a battle royale that thrives on a team dynamic. But, for those ready to jump in, Spitfires blazing, here are TheGamer’s top picks on which characters to use while aiming for that cr

Much like the Hemlok AR, this SMG fires in controlled bursts, but puts out five rounds instead of three. It's incredibly difficult to manage without modifications, as the accuracy isn't great to begin with. Compounding it with an awkward burst setting doesn't do it any fav
