Apex Legends Season 9: Legacy is just around the corner, and now we finally have full patch notes for the big update that will land on May 4 from EA and Respawn . This update is going to change a number of things about the game, introducing brand new modes, a new Legend, a new weapon, and dozens of balance changes across the cast and armoury. We’ve collated all the big changes and linked to extra information about each in this guide, and you can see the full list of changes for yourself on EA’s site . Just scroll down below for all of the important points, and get ready to jump into Arenas on May 4. Below is a breakdown for patch 1.67 . Arenas Arenas is clearly the biggest part of the new update, introducing a new 3v3 PVP mode which will be a part of the game permanently from now on. Arenas will see you selecting your ideal Legend before a match, and then spending crafting metals to purchase weapons and items before each round begins. This mode can be used either as a Battle Royale warm-up, or a dedicated competitive mode. Respawn also plans to introduce Ranked Arenas in the future, as mentioned in our interview with the team . For more on the Arenas mode, see our [https://Naldobenny.com/ Apex Legends Map Guide] Legends Season 9: Legacy preview . Arenas Maps Arenas is a much smaller-scale battle than the Battle Royale, and that’s why there are two brand new maps to enjoy. Party Crasher The Party Crasher is just what it sounds like - the Mirage Voyage , the party boat named after the Legend himself, has crash-landed in a city district, and this area has now become a place where Legends face off against one another. This map has long sightlines in addition to smaller buildings to fight in. Phase Runner Phase Runner is where you’ll find a prototype version of the large Phase Runner teleporter you can find on Olympus . The two sides of the map here either have a working teleporter which will deliver you to the fight quickly, or a broken down one, which will see you using the environment to get around and shoot down your enemies. The centre, meanwhile, is an open woodland area, perfect for snipers to watch over. You will also be able to play in three locations from the BR maps, Artillery , Thermal Station , and Golden Gardens . New Legend - Valkyrie We have a full introduction to Valkyrie right here , and some more information on her abilities here , but the basic information you need to know is that she is the daughter of Titanfall 2 ’s Viper , and her abilities mimic those of Viper’s Northstar Titan . Her flight and missile abilities can be used in a variety of ways, and she’ll be able to navigate hazardous maps like Olympus in ways other Legends simply can’t. New Weapon - Bocek Bow The Bocek Bow is the big new weapon being added to the game, and it is suitably deadly. The Bocek Bow is not only an excellent Marksman-class weapon, but it has two hop-ups it can use. The longer you draw your arrow for, the harder and faster it will hit. You’d think this would make it inconvenient for close-range play, but that’s where the hop-ups come in. Hop-Ups The first hop-up is the Shatter Caps , which will fire arrows that split into a shotgun-like blast pattern. This hop-up will also work with the 30-30 Repeater . The next new hop-up is Deadeye’s Tempo , which increase the fire rate dramatically. This is what makes the Bocek viable at close range. This hop-up will also work with the Sentinel sniper rifle, which currently has a notoriously slow fire rate. The Hammerpoint and Skullpiercer hop-ups have been removed to make space for these new items. Olympus Map Update - The Lost Fleet You may have already noticed ships in the sky converging on Olympus, and they’re not bringing anything nice. The Lost Fleet has arrived, and they’ve brought a deadly alien plant that has taken root on Olympus and overrun the map, spawning giant vines that block off routes and sightlines. You will also be able to visit the new alien ship that has landed. Find a Bridge Key , and you’ll be able to find rare loot in the Bridge. Loot Changes - Basic White Equipment Removed From Loot Pool via EA, Respawn We reported on this earlier in the week, but white basic equipment has been removed from the loot pool. You will now start each game with a starter kit that consists of the following: White helmet White knockdown shield White body armor Syringe x2 Shield cell x2 White helmets and white knockdown shields are now totally removed from the loot pool, meaning you won’t find them on the floor. White body armor, meanwhile, is now far, far less common, but still available to find in case of emergencies. Weapons, grenades, heal items, and ammo will be more common instead. Emotes Every Legend now has emotes . You will get one emote for each Legend automatically, with more available in Apex Packs and through the Battle Pass . You go third-person to view emotes, but you will not be able to move the camera, preventing you from using it to peek around walls. Legend Balance Changes There are a lot of balance changes happening to the Legends, so here are the highlights. Low Profile Removed Low Profile , which would increase incoming damage by 5% and count leg shots the same as body shots, has been removed from the game entirely , freeing Lifeline, Wraith, and Wattson from the curse. Lifeline The Combat Revive ability no longer deploys a shield, but can revive two players at the same time. The revive is cancelable, allowing players to use their knockdown shield in an emergency. The DOC Drone heal rate has been increased considerably, which is nice. The Care Package Ultimate contents now depend on what loot you currently have equipped, guaranteeing some kind of upgrade depending on what loot your team is carrying when it arrives. These changes follow complaints that Lifeline was "boring. " Octane Stim cooldown has been reduced to just one second, but the health cost has been nearly doubled, from 12HP to 20HP. Bullet spread has also been increased while airborne or using a Jump Pad . Loba Yes, Loba’s Bracelet has been fixed. In fact, Loba can now run and slide at normal speed after throwing the bracelet, which will make Loba mains feel much safer. The Black Market Boutique Ultimate cooldown has been increased by a third, though. Horizon Horizon has had a fairly big nerf , with her Gravity Lift speed reduced by 30%, strafe speed on the lift reduced, and reduced the amount of time you can stay on top of it to just two seconds. That’s all in addition to a five-second cooldown increase. Rough. Fuse Fuse has two uses of Knuckle Cluster now, in addition to a reduced cooldown. Bangalore Bangalore’s thin smoke has been thickened, becoming more opaque. Crypto Crypto can now scan and open care packages to investigate their contents before your team comes out of hiding. Weapon Balance Changes There are more weapon changes than Legend changes, so let’s make this brief… Marksman Class Weapons The Bocek Bow is now in a new class of weapon, the Marksman class , and it is joined there by the G7-Scout , 30-30 Repeater , and the Triple Take . Movement speed while ADSing has been improved for these weapons, making ADS move speed slower than assault rifles, but faster than sniper rifles. Supply Drop Weapon Changes The Peacekeeper is back as normal floor loot, and the Triple Take is instead in the Supply Drop . Both weapons have had their stats changed and updated accordingly, and are detailed below. Peacekeeper Precision Choke is on by default, can be toggled off. Pellet spread has been increased, with damage nerfed slightly. Reload and rechamber speeds are also higher, meaning it won’t be as powerful as the Season 8 version of the weapon. Triple Take The inverse of the Peacekeeper - this has been buffed everywhere except for a slight fire rate increase. Havoc Recoil reduced when you first begin shooting. Headshot damage reduced. 30-30 Repeater Increased leg damage multiplier, move speed increased. G7-Scout Move speed increased, hipfire accuracy decreased. Longbow & Wingman Both have had increased headshot damage since the Skullpiercer is no longer available. Mozambique The Hammerpoint Rounds may be gone, but this weapon now has 6 shots in a clip, and the spread has been reduced, making it more deadly at range. This should hopefully save you on drop. P2020 Fire rate has been lowered to bring mouse and controller players more in line with one another, and the bullet damage has been increased. Arc Stars Movement slow from a stick has been removed. I’m heartbroken.

Apex Legends: Best Legend Passives To Master Ranked

2025-10-12T03:54:24Z

SusanneAgostini:

Legends in Apex Legends possess a wide range of abilities to give their players and their squads an edge in the Respawn battle royale. After all, players have to use their Legends' Tactical Skills to secure the advantage throughout the match, while their Ultimate Skills can almost always turn the tables to their favor. Unfortunately, players who still spam their Legends' Skills and still lose the match might not be using another trick up their sleeve: their Legends' Passive Skills. RELATED: Apex Legends: Best Tactical Skills, Ranked Despite being "unnoticeable" traits, a Legend's Passive Skill almost always defines their core concept. Players who know how to maximize their Passives can have an unseen advantage in the game. And interestingly, some Legends just have Passives that set them apart from the rest. Updated on May 3, 2022, by Rhenn Taguiam: With Bangalore’s brother Jackson finally arriving as the Legend Newcastle in the upcoming season, players of Apex Legends can finally have another Defensive Legend to protect the squad. And while his abilities focus on arming his pals with a portable shield, other Legends won’t let this newcomer upstage them - especially when it comes to their Passive abilities. However, as they train and master the game’s diverse cast of characters, just which Legend Passives should they study first? Trickster Mirage easily becomes the life of the party whenever he summons his duplicates to mess around with enemies, especially when they can copy his actions in the middle of combat. To add to this confusion, Mirage can become one of the best supportive Legends out there with Now You See Me… , a Passive built to emphasize his protective nature. With this Passive, Mirage will automatically cloak whenever he revives teammates and uses Respawn Beacons. This alone can add a lot of versatility to teams, as Mirage can escape a firefight and get to a lone Respawn Beacon or help an ally even while enemies are scrambling to find them. Not only that, but downing Mirage summons a decoy that will annoy enemies to the bitter end, allowing Mirage to have time to safely hide. This syncs well with the rest of his abilities. Psyche Out (Tactical) allows Mirage to summon a clone that can copy his moves, allowing him to distract enemies while saving teammates. All the more confusing is when he uses Life Of The Party (Ultimate), as he summons up to five decoys that roam around while the real Mirage is saving his team. Of all Legends, it’s Horizon that rules the skies with her unique slate of abilities - most of which allow her to take the skies and float while using the maneuverability of the skies to eliminate enemies. Spacewalk is the Passive that makes this possible, as Horizon gets better air control and won’t have as much impact when landing while used. At its core, Horizon gets a bit more speed when landing from higher places, getting rid of the lag time Legends often suffer when landing in this manner. Moreover, Horizon can make quick turns in the air. While air combat is difficult to master in itself, Horizon can give players better options while fighting mid-air thanks to this Passive. This works best with her Gravity Lift (Tactical), which essentially allows Horizon and her allies to take to the skies with an upwards booster that can take them as high as 30 meters for up to 10 seconds. This can be more than enough time to reach high surfaces or even get the aerial advantage against enemies in heated fights. Ever true to his Recon designation, Seer can quickly identify enemies in the field with his Heart Seeker passive, which essentially enables Seer to hear and visualize the heartbeats of enemies that are within 75 meters of him when he dons his weapons in ADS. This is especially useful when Seer is on reconnaissance mode with a sniper, as this essentially allows him to shoot enemies with a built-in heat scanner. Visually speaking, Heart Seeker takes the form of a circle in the crosshair that moves in the direction of the enemy if it detects anyone in the vicinity. Seer can determine the health of enemies based on how fast their heartbeats are during this mode This works best with the rest of his Skills, such as Focus Of Attention (Tactical) which reveals enemies, and interrupts their actions for an extremely short while. It even works well with his Exhibit (Ultimate) that can detect enemies that enter its range for as long as 30 seconds. Players out for the kill will love Ash and her slate of offensive abilities, particularly her Passive named Marked For Death . At its core, this Passive will have Ash’s map show the location of recently-created deathboxes. Choosing a deathbox of interest can mark the direction of surviving attackers once, giving players ample time to chase down targets in favorable positions. This can greatly benefit Ash out for the hunt with her other abilities. Catching up to a set of attackers can give Ash a nice opportunity to use her Arc Snare (Tactical) which can stun enemies for a short while, or her Phase Breach (Ultimate) which allows her to teleport to a location with her weapon. Wouldn't it feel awesome to open a Supply Pod and know there's high-tier loot inside? With Loba, this is possible with her Eye for Quality . Unlike other combative Passives, Loba's Eye for Quality is literally that: Loba can see Epic (Purple) and Legendary (Gold) loot through walls. This means Loba can ping loot without having to open doors, Supply Pods, or even Explosive Holds. RELATED: Apex Legends: Beginner Mistakes That Can Cost You The Match Of course, given the loot-focused nature of Eye For Quality, it's not necessarily the "best" Passive to master. For beginners, the Eye's lack of combat potential won't make it any more impactful to their performance. In the right hands, this easily gives a skilled Loba the advantage. After all, Loba will know which areas to search if she's looking for specific gear or specific attachments to weapons. Moreover, Eye For Quality can tell her whether a zone is worth using her Black Market Boutique (Ultimate) for, which in turn allows the squad to steal any gear within the Ult's vicinity - including weapons inside Explosive Holds and Supply Drops . Whereas Bloodhound serves as a mobile reconnaissance unit, Crypto specializes in careful approaches. With his Surveillance Drone (Tactical) he can keep tabs on enemies and other interactive objects from a distance. And with his Neurolink Passive, his allies can tag everything Crypto sees within a 30-meter radius - from enemies to valuable Supply Pods . Interestingly, it's Crypto's allies - not just Crypto himself - that need to maximize Neurolink. If they pay enough attention to Crypto's "All-Seeing Eye," then his squad will have a handy version of Bloodhound's Eye of the Allfather. After all, with the right positioning, Crypto's Drone can keep on tagging enemies in the area - perfect for tactical attacks. Of course, while allies greatly benefit from Neurolink, the advantages only kick in if their Crypto can position the Drone properly. In turn, it's a two-pronged tactic that needs a ton of quick thinking, practice, and party synergy. Gibraltar makes up for his size with his efficiency as a defensive Legend . And while he can wreak havoc with Defensive Bombardment (Ultimate) and protect allies with Dome of Protection (Tactical), he can also soak in more damage as a frontline tank via Gun Shield . Essentially, Gun Shield acts as an extra "component" to Gibraltar's ADS mechanic. The Gun Shield deploys a 50 Health energy shield whenever Gibraltar aims, securing the upper half of his body. This protects him from headshots and other basic damage. This works well with the Fortified Perk, which already reduces incoming damage by 15-percent (or one-shot). Unfortunately, aside from its minor protection, the energy shield also occupies half of his body - making it very visible against opponents. However, a Gibraltar with the right aggressive play can tank just enough damage to outlive an assailant and knock them down before they get killed. In turn, the Gun Shield works best when treated as a slight health extension than an actual anti-damage barrier. With the right hands, a grenade can cause havoc on the battlefield - and with the Grenadier , Fuse will always have the right hands for grenades. With this Passive, Fuse can hold two grenades in an inventory slot instead of just one. Moreover, since his right arm is a grenade launcher, he can load grenades and launch them faster and farther. In short, with Fuse, a grenade is as good as a third weapon. Of all grenade types, Fuse obtains a special interaction with Frag Grenades. Instead of just seeing its trajectory, Grenadier also helps Fuse track how a Frag Grenade will bounce off walls. This essentially enables Fuse to attack enemy squads from more angles. Moreover, Grenadier fits with Fuse's explosive arsenal. For instance, Fuse can load a grenade with the right hand and launch his Knuckle Cluster (Tactical) with his left - making for two quick grenade attacks. Lastly, Fuse can rain hell with grenades after launching the fiery wall of his Motherlode (Ultimate). Of course, despite the efficiency of Fuse's Passive, Grenadier only works best if a player loves their grenades in the first place. Synthetic Nightmare Revenant chose a more robotic body to accommodate his specialty as an assassin, and Stalker represents this in Apex Legends . Unlike other Passives, Stalker describes an assassin's advantages in a thin body like Revenant's. RELATED: [https://Naldobenny.com/ Apex Game Zone site] Legends: Best Guns For Newcomers, Ranked Essentially, Stalker gives Revenant the same crouch speed and walking speed, plus gives him higher climbing speed - making him fit for stealth and reconnaissance . Moreover, strafing while in ADS will compress Revenant's frame, reducing his hitbox. With the right hands, Revenant can launch an ambush or flank aggressive opponents and eliminate them. Moreover, Stalker fits Revenant's entire toolkit. Revenant can catch enemies by surprise and render their abilities useless by triggering Silence (Tactical) after sneaking up on them. Meanwhile, a Revenant with an extra life via Death Totem (Ultimate) can eliminate squads in intense firefights. Of course, being a Passive attached to a Legend's base characteristics means its efficiency depends on how players can maximize Revenant's stealth potential - which makes Stalker not-so-ideal for beginners. Thanks to Swift Mend , Octane's iconic "Must go faster!" line applies not just to speed but to health regeneration as well. In fact, it's thanks to this Passive that he can risk losing a bit of health to get that speed boost via Stim (Tactical). With Swift Mend, Octane regenerates 1.5 Health for every second he's not taking damage. Sounds simple enough, right? Thing is, it's Swift Mend that makes Octane such a valuable asset to the field. With Swift Mend, Octane can emphasize speed and aggression - great with players who want a more offensive playstyle. Remember, with the right usage of Stim, Octane can serve as bait and start a chase while still recovering health. Moreover, Octane can recover Health while knocked down - letting him go back to the fight ASAP once revived. Leaving Octane alone for a few seconds can help him get back to the game faster, making for a mean aggressive Legend. When it comes to straightforward Passives, Bangalore's Double Time easily takes the cake. Essentially, Bangalore gets a 30-percent running speed whenever she gets hit or whenever a projectile misses her. Bangalore players who get that "running" icon in combat will know they've just procced Double Time. This seemingly-useless skill is deadly at the hands of a skilled player. After all, Double Time doesn't have a cooldown - meaning, Bangalore can enjoy as high as 30-percent running boosts, so long as she narrowly avoids shots. This allows her to catch up to opponents easily or even escape faster. Moreover, Double Time fits well with Bangalore's tactical toolkit . Proccing Double Time can signal Bangalore to use her Smoke Launcher (Tactical) or her Rolling Thunder (Ultimate) airstrike, depending on the situation. Wraith users might find her skillset complicated, especially considering her reliance on speed and mobility. Her Into The Void (Tactical) lets her "phase" to other areas almost undetected, while Dimensional Rift (Ultimate) helps her navigate faraway instances almost instantly via a portal. How can she possibly know when to run? Why, with her Voices From The Void , of course. This Passive might creep out players at first, especially since it takes the form of a spectral voice that only pops up in certain situations. However, these situations can save Wraith or help her prepare for combat almost instantaneously. The Voices can warn Wraith whenever many enemies await nearby, if an enemy is aiming at her, or if there are nearby traps. As a plus, she can share this information with her squad - helping them prepare for an impending fight as well. Whereas Double Time just boosts Bangalore's speed whenever she's hit or almost hit, Wraith's Voices allow her to dodge, hide, or even get head-on in combat. Moreover, in high-intensity situations, Voices can help Wraith avoid ambushes and surprise attacks. Being true to Bloodhound's theme, Tracker ensures this Legend is unparalleled when it comes to keeping track of where everyone is. With the Tracker Passive, enemy interactions leave marks that Bloodhound can easily notice. What makes Tracker so deadly is the sheer number of interactions it can check out - as enemies leave these trails for 90 seconds before they disappear. For instance, Bloodhound can ping footprints and advanced movements such as slide marks, jumping, mantling, and ziplines. Moreover, Bloodhound can relay recent battle spots, damage locations, and which weapon killed a certain enemy. Moreover, this Passive fits Bloodhound's Eye of the Allfather (Tactical) and Beast of the Hunt (Ultimate) - both skills that tag enemies. However, Bloodhound's Tracker can easily overwhelm a player, which makes it not-so-ideal in all situations. A Legend is virtually useless if they're dead - and Lifeline's Combat Medic is perhaps a literal lifeline for any squad. Whereas typical revives leave both teammates vulnerable against enemy fire, Combat Medic will let Lifeline deploy D.O.C to facilitate the healing. This leaves Lifeline open to heal another teammate or protect the position. In turn, having Lifeline is great for any team composition courtesy of D.O.C and Combat Medic. Granted, an incoming Lifeline patch will remove Combat Medic's small shield feature. However, the fact that D.O.C will do a revive on Lifeline's behalf still leaves her open for any role on the battlefield. Skilled players can leave an ally to revive while their Lifeline can dish out aggro - completely taking the enemy's attention away from the injured comrade. Likewise, Lifeline can deploy D.O.C Heal Drone (Tactical) and Combat Medic at the same time, giving the teammate an instant healer to get them back to the fight faster. Apex Legends is available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS.

Players of Apex Legends interested in a more straightforward approach to the battle royale may appreciate the capabilities of Bangalore . Unlike other Legends, Bangalore is capable of controlling combat situations courtesy of her toolkit, possessing the ability to create smokescreens and call forth tactical ordinances to turn the tide of battle to her favor. Related: Apex Legends: Safe Navigation Tips That Work With Every Map With Apex Legends overhauling major components of its gameplay in February 2023’s Season 16: Revelry, newcomers, vets, and returnees to the game might be curious as to what Bangalore can offer players. These changes are more important than ever for a straightforward combatant like Bangalore, especially since her toolkit is less about complicated mechanics and more about giving players an extremely offensive playstyle. Now classified as an Assault Legend, Bangalore players can be more tactically-inclined to become as aggressive as they need to secure victory. Rewritten by Rhenn Taguiam. Before Bangalore entered into the Apex Games, she first served in the Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation’s Military division, as with the rest of her siblings. When the IMC was attacked by members of the Frontier Militia, Bangalore - then Anita Williams - and her brother Jackson were the only survivors, courtesy of the ship IMS Hestia. However, it’s during their voyage in yet another Hestia ship, the IMS Hestia 2, that the siblings were unfortunately split apart. With no idea about the fate of her sibling, Anita entered the Apex Games and used her military training to dominate the competition. And when she finally reunited with her brother, who also entered the Games as the Legend Newcastle, Bangalore had to come to terms with her dream of earning enough in the Games to get back home or to accompany her brother in his new life. Versus other characters in Apex Legends , Bangalore brings a familiarity to the hero battle royale - especially for FPS enthusiasts. Her kit that gives her immediate access to a smokescreen and a tactical ordinance can give players Call of Duty Killstreak flashbacks, making Bangalore an ideal Apex Legends solo character for players who want gameplay similar to traditional FPS. Works with all skill levels: As one of the first Legends immediately unlocked in the game, Bangalore has an accessible kit built to accommodate almost all skill levels. Newcomers to the game can use her skills to be more familiar with the battle royale’s combat mechanics, while vets can use Bangalore for a dependable toolkit. Go for offense: Players who want to have a more aggressive combat style in their Apex Legends matches can depend on Bangalore for offensive-leaning plays. Her smokescreen and her speed buff passive makes her an ideal unit for extremely quick firefights. Works with any team configuration: Unlike other Legends who usually need to mesh with other teammates to maximize their capabilities, Bangalore’s all-in-one toolkit allows her to work on her own or as the primary aggressor of any team. Unlike most Legends in Apex Legends , Bangalore’s toolkit is perhaps the most straightforward for players. Instead of juggling complicated Skills, players can simply smoke their way inside and outside of combat or even end conflicts with a massive tactical ordnance - giving her a kit extremely compatible with powerful weapons such as an Apex Legends Assault Rifle . For a quick overview, here’s what to expect in Bangalore’s kit: Double Time (Passive): When Bangalore takes fire, she gets a buff that boosts her sprinting speed, allowing her to get into and out of combat situations much faster than others. Smoke Launcher (Tactical): Bangalore whips out a Smoke Launcher that launches a Smoke Canister that explodes into a smoke wall. Players can use this to conceal themselves or force enemies to navigate throughout a cloud of smoke. Rolling Thunder (Ultimate): When prompted, Bangalore throws a flare that calls forth an artillery strike to her immediate position. Various small missiles land in front of her that slowly detonate. Similar to a military personnel who can adjust to any combat situation, Bangalore’s Double Time (Passive) gives her a speed boost whenever she’s hit. This transforms her into a speed devil, practically encouraging her to either get into combat or [https://naldobenny.com/ apexgamezone Gaming] escape - useful with Apex Legends SMGs and close-ranged weapons. Related: Apex Legends: Pro Tips For The Olympus Map Properties: Double Time gives Bangalore a 30-percent speed boost two (2) seconds after activation. Stackable speed boost: One of the best properties of Double Time is how it stacks, meaning Bangalore can keep herself in danger in order to continuously get her speed boosts. Not only that, the ability also triggers even when enemies miss Bangalore. Players who can dodge hits can capitalize on the near-hit trigger of this ability. Transform into an alarm: Bangalore’s Double Time is reactive, meaning it responds to enemy engagements and not the player’s. This in turn implies that players can detect whenever an enemy tries to engage with them, giving them the opportunity to either run or face danger. One of the best abilities in the game, Smoke Launcher (Tactical) gives Bangalore the opportunity to equip her Smoke Launcher and fire a canister that releases smoke. This blankets the immediate area with a smokescreen she can use to her advantage. She can even go guns blazing with Apex Legends LMGs and enemies inside wouldn’t immediately notice. Properties: This ability has two (2) charges, with both being recoverable after 33 seconds. The smokescreen takes 23 seconds to evaporate. Hitting an enemy with this ability deals 10 Damage. This also disables aim assist for controllers. Multiple uses increase versatility: The smokescreen from the Smoke Launcher interacts with the game in numerous ways. For instance, Bangalore can equip the Smoke Launcher on one hand and use the other hand for actions such as firing and reloading. Depending on where it’s fired, the smokescreen can hide Bangalore and her allies or distract enemies by clouding them. Note item interactions: The smokescreen interacts with various abilities differently, which can be useful or detrimental to Bangalore. For instance, threat highlighters render the smoke useless, and Interception Pylons (Wattson) can shoot them down. Likewise, throwing explosives and even activating Nox Gas Grenades (Caustic) can make the smokescreen more distracting. One of the most devastating abilities Bangalore can offer the battle royale game has to be Rolling Thunder (Ultimate). With this Ultimate, Bangalore calls forth a tactical missile strike to her general direction, slowly detonating after reaching the ground. This can deal massive damage and wipe out entire parties who aren’t careful, allowing Bangalore with even the most mundane of Apex Legends Pistols to become a threat. Properties: After Bangalore throws a flare, various missiles land on the ground in a 6x6 square in front of her. Missiles reach a maximum distance of 70-meters and activate after six (6) seconds. When activated, each missile deals 40 Damage and slows down opponents. Allies aren’t damaged but are instead slowed down. Timing is key for maximum damage: The most ideal time of throwing Rolling Thunder is during ambushes, engagements, or even as cover to escape. It’s always wise to throw Rolling Thunder between the player and their enemies. Offensively, Rolling Thunder is best activated after downing an enemy, as this forces the enemy to either flee or risk a 3v2 in the middle of a bloodbath. Pair with other grenades: Despite the damage Rolling Thunder offers, it’s not extremely effective due to its lag time. The six-second activation gives enemies room to hide. In turn, it’s ideal for players to throw in some explosives to finish off enemies hiding behind cover. Considering the nature of Bangalore’s toolkit, players who use her shouldn’t hesitate engaging on pure offense. When utilized properly, her skillset allows Bangalore to not only enter and exit combat quickly, but also allow her to persistently mow down one enemy squad after another with her abilities. At its core, players can maximize Bangalore’s kit when doing hyper-aggressive play with Apex Legends teammates in these manners: Related: Apex Legends: The Best Legends For King's Canyon Perfect with scanners: Bangalore is best paired with Legends such as Bloodhound and Crypto for their scanning prowess. Whenever they spot an enemy nearby, Bangalore can prepare her toolkit for a smooth ambush to catch enemies off-guard and eliminate them with ruthless efficiency. Speed is key with Double Time: When Bangalore is hit or almost hit, she triggers Double Time, essentially allowing her to sprint much faster. With speed being an integral component in the game, Double Time gives Bangalore the necessary room to recuperate and prepare for a counter-attack. When attacked, make sure that Double Time is triggered and players head to the closest cover. Triggering Double Time a second time allows them to either head straight to the enemy or straight for the exit. Dictate the flow of combat with the Smoke Launcher: When Bangalore uses her Smoke Launcher (Tactical), she can practically dictate the flow of combat. For instance, Bangalore can either launch a smokescreen to hide her exit, or release it to the enemy’s direction to block their field of vision and zoom in for the ambush. Deny access to exits with Rolling Thunder: The slow explosion of Rolling Thunder (Ultimate) isn’t just a nerf, but rather an area denial option. When thrown to the direction the enemy team is facing, Rolling Thunder traps enemies and forces them to choose - turn back and face Bangalore, or gamble their exit with AOE explosions. Compared to the other Legends, Bangalore has the toolkit capable of utilizing weapons in Apex Legends gameplay to their most optimal potential. Aside from Bangalore’s Skills giving her a balance of offensive and defensive options, her classification as a member of the Assault Class ensures her weapons are in tip-top shape. Here are things to expect with Bangalore as she enters Season 16: Revelry in 2023: Weapon Supply Bins - Secret Compartment: Bangalore is capable of accessing the Smart Compartments of Weapon Supply Bins, allowing her to obtain the four (4) Smart Loot attachments of at least the Rare Tier. One (1) of these loots will always be an optic. If there’s no one in the team with a weapon, opening the compartment instead gives a weapon with two (2) attachments. Ammo Changes Per Stack: Bangalore can carry one more stack of Light, Heavy, and Energy Ammo, and reduced extra stacks for Shotgun and Sniper Ammo. Given how Bangalore’s toolkit focuses on extreme aggression, it can greatly help players using her to have weapons that deal as much damage as possible. Weapons to accompany Bangalore should always take into account how her smokescreen and missile barrage can be an entry-point into all ranges of combat, making it important to have Apex Legends armaments that accommodate any situations: R-301 Carbine (Assault Rifle): The quintessential AR of the game is a practical choice for Bangalore mains, especially considering how its decent handling and firing rate make it practical for almost any ranged setup. This is useful for Bangalore who wants to transition between attacking enemies from afar and then confusing them with a smokescreen before going into melee. Devotion (LMG): While the Spitfire is the more popular LMG option in the game, the Devotion and its Energy Ammo usage helps Bangalore have a smoother time in combat due to the lack of strong recoil. This allows Bangalore to get the jump on enemies in long-range while still becoming extremely deadly with the Devotion’s continuous fire (with the Turbocharger) in close range. Mastiff (Shotgun): Contrary to other Shotguns, the Mastiff Shotgun releases pellets in a horizontal fashion, making it deadly against enemies who like to stay together. This transforms Bangalore’s smokescreens into a nightmare, especially since a shot from this weapon can catch hit an enemy’s center mass and potentially graze the opponent’s other teammates within proximity. Apex Legends is currently playable in the PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and the Nintendo Switch. More: Apex Legends: Pro Tips To Dominate The Storm Point Map
