I’ve mentioned multiple times how important a smart team composition is, and a Recon character like Bloodhound is amazing. Being able to paint your targets on your map or HUD quickly and easily makes it easy to find enemies that are straggling alone, and can be neatly picked
But right now we’re covering Season 9 ’s brand new weapon, the Bocek Compound Bow , and this weapon is quite unlike those that you’ve used thus far. It has a unique ammo type with properties unlike any other weapon, and even the way scopes are attached is different from the weapons you’re used to. In this guide we’re going to break down everything you need to know about the Bocek Compound Bow, including its two hop-
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
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 earlier, the Deadeye’s Tempo seriously speeds up the fire rate of the Bocek Bow, and you should use this. The Bocek Bow isn’t good at close range unless using the Shatter Caps, and even then most shotguns are more capable - it’s only there to be used when you have no other weapon capable of a close-range engagement, really, since it’s only barely better than a Mozambique . Deadeye’s Tempo, however, will allow you to shatter even the most robust of shields with only a couple of charged shots, always giving you the opportunity to slide in and begin using a faster-firing weapon, like the R-99 , to finish the
Crypto and Valkyrie are also great choices, of course. Valkyrie can buy her Skyward Dive ultimate and reposition the whole team at the start of the game, while also painting enemies on the HUD . Crypto, meanwhile, has his drone , which is the best tool in the game for marking enemy positions, and can help you formulate plans dynamica
The Bocek Bow uses Arrows for ammo, and this is a brand new ammo type, and the only ammo type in the game that only works with a single weapon. This means arrows are rarer than most ammo types, but you will be able to reuse arrows, luck
In addition to all of that, the Bocek Bow is also much quieter than any other weapon in the game. Yes, you will hear the arrows whiz past your head, but it’ll be difficult to pinpoint exactly where they were coming from, because the Bocek doesn’t let off a loud gunshot when firing. If you like to approach engagements with stealth, this is the perfect weapon for
Gibraltar's strength is not just his defensive capabilities. His ultimate Defensive Bombardment is perfect for wrecking cornered enemies or for walling off an area from escape. Hypothetically, say the ring is closing near the middle of the map, there will be multiple small paths that lead to the central canyon, all of which can be bombarded to block it off as an option for enemies . It's especially useful towards the end of the game when enemies are much closer together and the threat of the ring is at its high
You won’t be picking weapons up off the ground, instead, you’ll be using a limited crafting metal currency to buy weapons and equipment. This does give you the option to be flexible with weapons for each round, but you won’t be swapping weapons mid-round unless you’re abusing a death
Ash is a character originally seen in Titanfall 2 , brought back to Apex Legends Legends Guide Legends both to reference the FPS and continue her storyline. A fan favorite, Ash has abilities that are innately tied to mobility. Her tactical ability traps foes in place, while her Ult can zip you out of an overwhelming situation (or get you into o
Closing rings are still present in Arenas, and if you don’t immediately get into a gunfight, the ring will decide the victor. If you can control where the ring will close well in advance, you’ll have an advantage over
Let's face it, there are few weapons that the fan-favorite R-99 doesn't pair decently with to some degree. Yet, the burst-firing Hemlok makes a particularly solid match with the close-range SMG, which unloads at close ra
The 301’s balance is extraordinarily useful. It doesn’t burn through its bullets too quickly, and it’s still frenetic enough up close. However, the Mastiff keeps the player from hoarding all the light ammo. And if one finds themselves muttering "clever girl" , a la Jurassic Park, the Mastiff aids in survival after using the 301 from a
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
