The Free Currency Trick Still Works...Here is how to put it all together. The grapple point acts as a passive force that propels you forward. Holding forward on your controller or keyboard acts as an additional force to pull you forward and increase speed. Finally, strafing left or right will pull you in that direction, away from the grapple point, while increasing your speed. In order to stay attached to your grapple point, the angle created from the grapple point to where you are looking must not exceed 90 degrees. Basically, if you are looking to replicate Triv’s spinning grapple tactic, you will need to keep the grapple point in view at all times as you strafe left or ri

Some teams are gearing Lifeline to be able to call these pods down as often as possible. In-game items, such as ultimate accelerants, mean Lifeline can call more frequent drop pods, allowing teams to gear up f

Each class carries a specific set of passive, active, and and ultimate skills, giving them unique roles in and out of combat. Bloodhound, for example, can track other squads if they've been nearby. Pathfinder can set up ziplines to assist with squad mobility, while Lifeline lays down the healing. Learning how to use your Legend's abilities will make or break your squad's effectiven

As you go in to revive a teammate, and hit E to apply first aid, the shield will automatically deploy in front of you. This means that you need to go in to heal facing the direction any shots are coming f

Lifeline’s first ability is an incredibly useful passive ability called Combat Medic which has two separate uses. The first is that you can revive knocked down teammates faster, while protected by a shield wall. The second is that healing items are also used 25% faster, allowing you to apply first aid to both yourself and others significantly quic

The kerfuffle began last night when a Twitter user reached out to Mark Rein , Vice President of Epic Games (and co-owner of the Carolina Hurricanes for NHL fans out there ). The aim of the Twitter user was simple: get a statement from a Fortnite spokesperson about the up-and-coming competitor, Apex Legends from developer Respawn Entertainm

As with all the Apex Legends characters, Lifeline has three different abilities: a passive, a tactical, and an ultimate. Lifeline is a "support" class and as such her abilities are focused around healing and resupplies. Her passive ability is Combat Medic, her tactical is known as D.O.C Heal Drone, and her Ultimate ability is Care Pack

Of course, Pathfinder’s grappling ability isn’t purely for travel purposes. Players can pack some additional offensive firepower by aiming directly at an opposing player and shooting the hook, which will pull the enemy closer. Again, this technique will take some practice, but it is a pretty hilarious and effective technique that will undoubtedly take the enemy by surpr

By now, you have probably seen the mindblowing video of Twitch streamer, Triv , as he grapples his way to victory thanks to a crazy spinning maneuver using Pathfinder’s grappling hook. Thus, if you are merely using Pathfinder’s grappling hook as a way to zip straight from point to another, you’re doing it wrong. Pathfinder’s grappling ability can do so much more, including increasing your skiing speed and slingshotting across the map to take your enemies by surpr

After you make the hike to the beacon, all that's left is to interact with it and wait for the dropship to ferry your battle buddy back into the fight, but mind that he'll have no gear and will need to loot up. This makes your squad a tempting target for nearby enemies, who will probably have noticed the beacon being u

And as I mentioned earlier, congratulating competitors is commonplace in the industry. Lest we not forget how Phil Spencer (Executive Vice President of Gaming at Microsoft) reached out to Sony and Santa Monica Studios over God of Wars' stellar reviews . Or when the Microsoft brand congratulated Nintendo for the launch of the Nintendo Swit

Apex Legends (whose very name is likely a riff on minor Titanfall series antagonist Kuben Blisk's mercenary outfit, the Apex Predators) is an incredibly polished and streamlined iteration on the battle royale formula. Originally leaked a day before its surprise February 3 release on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Apex Legends excels in areas where other battle royales tend to falter thanks to developer Respawn's innovative approaches to teamwork, traversal, and spawning. While there's little room to complain about a new AAA competitor that has serious potential to shake things up for Fortnite and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , there's little question of the fact that free-to-play Apex Legends Walkthrough|Https://Apexarenaelite.Com/ Legends - which wears its market-driven influences like Overwatch on its sleeve - is a far cry from Titanfall despite their passing similarit

We can't tell for certain why the Tweet was deleted, whether it was a mistake from an intern or a call from the Epic Games PR team to tear down some goodwill across the industry. But the optics make it look like Fortnite feels like it is on the ropes, which is clearly the opposite of what they want to convey in this critical t
