15 Things I WISH I Knew About Apex When I Started 

My tip is don't take a "break" after season 2 only to return in season 12

Rushing in to help downed teammates is a bad habit I've developed over time, and unfortunately it became a problem because of how quickly people tend to dc when solo-queueing in pubs. I grew accustomed to the ticking clock of how long teammates were willing to wait to be rev'd, and the result was instinctively bolting to their position in hopes of getting to them before they rage-quit. Just another sore point of solo-queueing.

“Don’t carry too many med items” Mande, casually rocking 6 med kits and 16 syringes: *Holds my beer*

Mango: "How to know which is the real mirage" Me: "the one with no footstep audio"🤣

1. All legends move the same speed, Different legends have different foot step sounds 2. generally 2 med kit 4 syringe 8-12 cells 2-4 batt 3. Knowing where to drop where there'd most likely have loot and knowing how to contest another team dropping in the same area. Free look around to spot other squads. 4. Know what legends abilities do so you know how to deal with them 5. Look for blue flickering when mirage ults. That's the real one or look for the one moving in the most probable direction it'd move 6. rewatch your own pov and assess your mistakes 7. do not rush to save your teammate. assess the situation before going for it 8. Map awareness and positioning. knowing where you've been, the ring, etc. 9. Gold helm gives 25% cd reduc on abilities and knowing who'd have the move value out of it in your squad. 10. prevent deadslides by ensuring you have the right amount of momentum if you're holding a gun 11. ammo is held in even numbers approx 240-300 12. healing items are held in even numbers in stacks of 2 for medkit/batt or 4 syringe/cells 13. Know how to slide jump crouch strafe properly then learn how to wall jump and zip line techs 14. Have the right settings and keybinds (max fov for one)

The first couple times i played apex i almost exclusively picked up phoenix kits bc purple=good. Died a lot

Best tip, pick wraith, queue trios with fill, if you're not jump master ping a spot and launch there solo and when you die after a few seconds leave and abandon your team mates.

Swapping the gold helmet with the teammate that just used their abilities is such a good tip!

the anxiety when he left purple shields

good tips, sadly number 3 tip past season and this one became most important to me, 95% of randoms cant break up from formations and going to loot same path as your when you jumpmaster, i got really tired of this and now i very rarely stay at jumpmaster. also with new ring changes i go for 4 medkits now, even if i dont need this much, most likely my teamates going to be need it randoms or premade doesnt matter

Took me a month to get used to changing bats to cells vice versus and all the different ammo types. May I also say I called the devotion the devolution for the entirety of season 2! I also thought that just holding an ultimate accelerant in your bag would just speed up the ult cool down 😂 finding all this stuff out in season three made me feel like such a noob. 😂

what helped me improve a lot was lowering my sensitivity and fixing my posture.

11:16 ping opacity needs to be changed so when you ADS your pings dont fill your screen very helpful when teamates ping an enemy right in front of you while knocked, allowing you to see him not the ping.

I have 6000 hours on apex and this is helpful for everyone starting out 👌 would have been great if I saw it before the 6000 hours I put in. Would have saved me time figuring out myself all these years 👌

Glad you mentioned DPI, it's definitely something people are still missing on, they ask other players about their sensitivity, but most don't mention what DPI they are on, wich is a huge factor even if its slightly different...

"If you don't want coaching, just look at pro players replay's and compare it to your own" is prob the best advice I've heard so far.

Another VERY important setting change is getting thrown out of loot boxes and crafter when getting damaged. You literally can't loot when you're in zone and it's still activated which could kill you

I once looted a death box and it had 32 shield cells 🤣

Crazy how some simple changes can make all the difference. Good tips for everyone to refresh themselves on our good for the new player to grasp.

when a teammate goes down i feel so much pressure because they keep pinging the enemy and are like "He's one shot" like okay so am I lol. I cant even heal in peace

I wish I knew what that I should’ve gotten a different heirloom (I got Octane’s)

Something interesting is that free roam open world games is helpful to practice learning a map through experience

Mines is I wish I knew about this channel when I first started 🤣

As a mirage main this is perfect keep listening to these tips because me personally I become the decoy and it works 7-10 just do the opposite of what you think they think you’ll do and “you just got bamboozled”

I think the biggest tip I would give is to turn on auto-sprint and then put slides to L3 or left joystick now you can do stuff like hipfire and crouch without bending your finger 360 degrees to press Circe or B (Fair warning this does change Zooming in to Circle/B)

As a brand new player who is *cough* 36 years young xD My advice... don't listen to people who shit talk you or give negative feedback. Keep doing you and be humble.

Lifeline players PLEASE use ur drone to heal ur teammates, idkw why but everyone forgot that for strange reason lol.

My friend Is a octane main and I always tell him what a gold helmet does he never listens (I’m a bloodhound main btw)

I'm a pretty new apex player, but what i noticed that later on in the game it's best to only carry med kits and shield batteries. carrying shield cells will use up a lot of space and it takes forever to restore to full armor.

for the “dead slide” section. you can actually instant slide by holstering your weapon which negates the need for the three steps. also if your holstered already you can instant slide with your gun out. from holster position your hit triangle first then immediately slide. the latency will allow the two animations to happen at the same time

i love tip 5 because as a mirage player its easier to fool people who would know where someone would go rather then someone who just shoots any and all clones. less random chance

I don't use ALC because it's too much to mess with

I agree with the helment, but now it's better to give it to the better player of the group. One can give it to the blood hound but if he's not to skilled and gets killed it's a huge waste because now the enemies has the helment.

3:52 doesnt work if they use a white or blue skin. unsure if its a bug or intended. The higher grade skins make his arms visible during the animation. IF you were using a white/blue quality skin you would be completely invisible unless you take damage during the animation.

I have been watching your content for 5 days now, ever since getting into apex because COD has flopped. this video got my sub! respect the knowledge and time you put into the video's homie!

Another thing with Mirage during ultimate is looking at their feet. Only the real Mirage kicks up dirt when sliding or sprinting

funny how i always can get someone banner and run past a whole team without them seeing me

Thank you for making this Mirage mains life harder

I am always frustrated about #8 and how many people have no sense for space and strategy at all and usually they are the most arrogant ones, yelling like brats, trying to "lead" teammates in the middle of a fight of 2-3 other squads, like between them. Hey, I am a female (you know that sex supposedly not so good at orienting in space) but you know what, when they follow me, we win in 75% of matches.

Mango Gang! Let's get him 100k!

That wall bounce spinnaroonie in the intro was nice

Im new in the game i watch alot tips and guides but i still suck I die first one I also cant open character very expensive

Me, watching with almost 100 wins: “Interesting”

That mirage wall jump in the octane place was absolutely chefs kiss dude was lost af

Wish I could find someone that is like you willing to help others improve

Having toggles is pretty helpful also knowing that their anti cheat is one of the worst out there

I'm a top player with pathfinder. Can't wait to start playing again!

Just the way that I play but I prioritize teammates over most other things. I HATE when teammates ignore when I'm downed to loot or run away. Teams are your best chance at survival. Dropping on the other side of the map dooms both you and us

As an Octane main i carry no health items, never had a problem with it

Actually, heros do move at different speeds. Smaller legends need to move the same distance as bigger ones, so they have to be faster to keep up. You can see it in the walk cycles.

Name area drops are good but what I discovered was sometimes the no-name low areas are a better option if you plan on actually raising ranks. Sure if you are confident in winning a 1-1 getting 5000+ damage and 16 kills, then sure, go for it but I’m assuming most people aren’t that. Yeah it might be boring but being safe and knowing when to bail and just sit back is the only way to actually raise your rank in a reasonable predictable way.

Playing legends that have underwhelm ability like mirage and crypto that really need a good angle make me realize how important is map awarness

I’m returning to apex last time I played was when octane and caustic came out

Thanks for the info, much appreciated and needed. I'm new to the game and still in the "I'm confused, wtf do I do?" stage. lol

I always carry 4 syringes and 4 shield cells 2 cell batteries and 2 medkits

Thanks for the video! Very helpful and easy to follow instructions

I remember discovering the difference FOV makes in *every aspect of the game.* Then showing that to my friends. That was when we broke out of Platinum. Good times. I miss having internet capable of supporting multiplayer...

Also you can jump in and off a zip line in under a second and you can do it 3 times but you have to stay on the zip line after the 3rd time

My teammates footsteps are the loudest 😣

The reason i always rush in reviving my teammates is because if they die, they disconnect and then it's me vs 60 people...

He is talking about reviewing my games, but my games last 1-2 minutes

"All 22 legends have 3 abilities" Pathfinder and Crypto: *are you sure about that?*

I play all the Battle Royales and this one is the worst for me. I usually die before I even spot the enemy. XD

Quitting APEX hopping back on OSRS who’s with me? RSN: Fetus Bacon

WOLF SQUAD WHOOP WHOOP LOL

You should always have at least 1 nade especially w blue backpack +, a time where enemies try to res will come and having a nade can make the difference

I can't understand the lack of careful backpack storage. Do ppl just pick up things and not check what they have? Carrying an incomplete set of ammo would just annoy me lol but this is sp key because u can easily run out off ammo or heals when u need it the most. Great tips 👌

My very first game I didnt Know You had to collect ammo 😑I swaped guns every 5 mins 😭

This helped me so much I just one 3 games in a row and I’m level 20

Guys this is not true. With batterys you should have. Grey backpack: 6 Blue backpack: 10 Purple backpack: 12 Gold backpack: 18

3:43 this is important when fighting against a mirage that is better than you, I ended up kicking the right mirage trying to hit me we were both one hit.

That moment when you want to play a certain legend but your randoms have room temp iq

Love the last one. Though ironically I play with ALC settings but it’s because I used to play Gears so I want that higher turn speed, but I’ve kinda hybridized a few people I’ve watched and it’s helped out a ton I run 400/400 pitch and yaw and then next section is 160/160 250/250. I tried going back to linear or classic and it just felt so clunky and awful to track people that were coming at me.

So in any game that you can slide in, i always consistently slide because of WarFrame

Nah. I always carry 4 syringes and 4 shield cells. That's it. Those are easy to get after a kill. 2 batts added if I'm at the end of a game and two meds too. I try carry light meds and ammo because I'm a fragger lol. I'm always nading people

#7 can also be used for real-world scenarios for your safety.

They move the same speed?

I always have 2 med kits 4 shield cells and 2-4 shield batteries

You should update the heals to the new good bag

Pick up the purple armor!!! Left it twice. made me anxious

I remember when this did had 10k subs 1 year ago🎉 Well done!

A thing I wish my teammates knew: stop peaking the Kraber

Octanes footsteps are also really obvious it sounds like metal swishy pants

5:40 never use the round scope

Gibby and Caustic did used to move slower actually

Oh my god everyone who NEEDS this is my random teammate in ranked 😭

You don't need to spend 10 mins healing to 100% when your team is desperate for help

12 cells? That's a bit much, even if you are low on batts, I'd much rather fill that inventory slot with a grenade, my typical loadout will have 5 ammo slots, 2 medkits, 4 - 6 batteries, a phoenix (there was a time I'd carry two phoenix kits rather than any med) 4 syringe, 4 cells, the rest grenades.

All legends do not move the same speed , Maggie runs faster with a shotgun as for example wich is almost as fast as octanes passive.

He had when he "pitched down the Nice tutorialgh hats at the end of the phrase. "

I don’t have a mic it’s really hard to play with randoms just pinging bc they don’t fucking listen like so many games could have been won it’s a team game for a reason tho

You only need 1 slot for white meds. 2 med kits preferably.

"...gonna go off what we are hearing..." as if we could

Best tip for me would be to get a new controller cuz I’ve been rockin’ the same knockoff ps4 controller with bare to no ability of slight input. I gotta like rock the deadzone so high but it’s still so finicky

Only carry 2 med kits 6 batteries and 4 cells just to top off my shield if I only get hit for like 10 damage or something

That’s too many cells if you ask me. Underestimating grenades

I took a break after season 0 and came back season 6 or 7 and i regret it lol

Can u make a video on why I have preds in my lobbies every game

My health loadout 2 medkit 2 shiel cell 8 mini shield and 4 syrenge

even when all run at same speed there so much more aspects of movement and abilitys so its not a proper statement
