Apex Legends: The Definitive Bangalore Guide

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, ri


The Hemlok is often effective at poking an opponent and picking them off from relatively longer range. After being hobbled or flustered at a distance, players can swoop in and seal the deal by going in guns blazing with the R99. The two weapons are quite distinct from one another — which really makes this pairing w


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 amb


Valkyrie has close ties to Viper and the Northstar Titan from Titanfall 2. You may remember that Viper appears as a boss, and appears to be killed by you. In Apex Legends’ Northstar trailer we see Viper before his demise taking care of his daughter Kairi Imahara , who took a joyride in Viper’s Northstar Titan, getting into a fair bit of trou


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 atta


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 dan


The Skyward Dive is built for repositioning, but what you might not be considering is how useful this is in tense situations. You can probably imagine dozens of moments where you’ve been stuck between the encroaching ring and an enemy team, and this is where the Skyward Dive thrives, not only allowing you an easy escape but also painting enemies on your HUB so you’ll know where you can consider a safe landing spot. Combine Valkyrie’s Skyward Dive with Mirage’s skydive decoys and you should be able to mystify enemies and relocate quickly and eas

But many of these loadouts in Apex Legends will include weapons that generally agree with each other. Some are inspired by the pro scene , where teams like TSM continue to impress. But the list will also be mindful of more casual gamers, likely the majority of the player b


This season has some massive additions. The new Legend, Valkyrie , is one such addition that we have covered in detail here . But there’s also the Arenas mode, which puts teams of three against one another on brand new maps . We’ve broken down what you can expect in this gui


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 escape - useful with Apex Legends Story Guide Legends SMGs and close-ranged weap


This loadout will require a tremendous amount of ammunition, and may not have the best range. But one can hardly imagine any combination more punishing, up close and personal. Some may be fine with the Prowler’s burst fire, but this sub-machine gun has an unnatural degree of recoil without attachme


For most gamers who play as Lifeline, the irritation comes in when other team members take all of the loot for themselves and leave none for them. One of the most commonly known legends to do this is Octane. His ability to run faster than everyone else can mean that he beats everyone which leaves Lifeline waiting for her ability to recharge ag


As mentioned, you cannot fire while ascending using the VTOL Jets , and you will ascend fairly slowly - this is nothing like Horizon’s speedy gravity lift from previous seasons. This does mean that Valkyrie is a fairly obvious target, and even when she starts descending you can get some good hits in. If you’re a good shot with a sniper, Valkyrie can be taken down with ease, and that’s what you need to be aware of as a Valkyrie player. Staying in the air for too long can be a really bad decision. Be aware of the limits of your jet, and also aware of how far you need to fall before you can get behind cover and heal again. The jets are also fairly loud, so nearby players should instantly have a good idea of where a Valkyrie player


Firstly, it’s quite notable that the Flatline actually has a single-fire mode, essentially making it a heavy-ammo counterpart to the R-301. As such, the Flatline has the automatic force and damage output of the Spitfire, but with similar stability and range to the R-301. The Spitfire can even feel just a tad more uncontrollable, too. Possibly because of the very magazine capacity which distinguishes it, which could also encourage users to spray and p
