The Apex Legends promises so many hard battles and intense teamwork, and actually mastering its nuances can turn game players from average to exceptional. All these tips can, therefore, be applied as a beginner or experienced player to win the battle.
1. MAXIMIZE YOUR ABILITIES
Your Legend’s skills are game changers when used properly. From scanning up enemies to healing or deploying a shield dome, don’t forget to use your skills in every fight. Experiment with timing and placement to discover their full potential.
2. REVISIT TUTORIAL AREA
The Firing Range isn’t just for new players. It’s a great place to test each weapon, get accustomed to your shooting, and get familiar with each Legend’s playstyle—all without the drama of battle.
3. LEARN ABOUT THE LEGENDS
A balanced team is key. Know each Legend’s abilities and how they fit together. This will be very helpful if your go-to Legend isn’t available.
4. SET YOUR FOV (FIELD OF VIEW)
FOV-expansion always improves spatial awareness. You will immediately find loot and enemies in your field. Start at 90 and adjust to find what feels right—110 is optimal for many players.
5. OPTIMIZE YOUR CONTROLS
Try ‘Button Puncher’ layout which enables crouching and sliding via right analog stick. That switch lets you have control over your movement in critical fights.
6. DROP STRATEGY
- Drop Early: Fall in hotspots to play a high-speed game of snap judgment and grab good loot fast.
- Drop Late: For a more leisurely drop, jump into a remote area to scavenge with little urgency. You can even swan dive to cover more distance.
7. WEAPON SWAP VS. RELOAD
It is faster to swap to your secondary weapon in close combat than to reload. Sometimes, a snap judgment can tip the difference between victory and defeat.
8. BE THE MASTER OF LONG-RANGE COMBAT
When fighting foes at range, positioning is paramount. Look to get up high, then coordinate with your teammates to apply suppressive fire on the lone stragglers.
9. COMMUNICATE WELL
Apex Legends’ ping system is a lifesaver. Utilize it to identify enemies, suggest areas, or call for reinforcement. Verbal communication over voice chat builds on team coordination even further.
10. TIME YOUR ATTACK
If you hear two squads fighting nearby, wait until one comes out on top before you attack. Timing when they heal can lead to easy kills.
11. QUICKER ARMOUR SWAPPING
Instead of waiting for a shield battery to replenish your armour, take brand new armour from the deathbox. This split-second decision can change everything in a fight.
12. PLAN YOUR FINAL STAND
The strategic positioning when the final ring is closing is the most important part of the game. Use your ultimate abilities to gain control of the battlefield, from gas to grenades, so that the enemies would find it difficult to escape.
13. MELEE IN TIGHT SITUATIONS
When the ring closes in, punches and kicks can push enemies out of bounds. A well-placed melee attack can mean the difference between survival and elimination.
14. PAY ATTENTION TO THE RING
The final ring is unforgiving. Avoid getting trapped in tight spaces and ensure you’re positioned to outlast opponents. Sometimes, positioning alone can secure victory for your squad.
With these tips, you’re ready to step into the Apex Legends’ arena with confidence. Master your movement, plan your strategies, and lead your team to the ultimate title of Apex Champion!
