Apex Legends Season Five: Loba (Character Guide)

A video recently emerged on Reddit showing exactly how toxic random players can be. A player downs two enemies only to get knocked before a teammate kills the third. The teammates then refuse to revive the downed player. To see it and know there are few consequences for these actions is frustrating, to say the le

One solution is the one that Overwatch implemented, which allows players to endorse other players at the end of each game. In that game, endorsements only reflect positive attributes, such as Sportsmanship, Good Teammate and Shot Cal

Burglar's Best Friend is going to cause players the most trouble most likely. Since it is shaping up to be one of the best abilities in the game, that means that players will need to keep an eye out and ensure they don't get surrounded. If fighting Loba out in the open, they should keep on eye on her at all times. When she throws her bracelet, players will have a few moments to score some free hits before she teleports. Once she is gone, players should get to cover and hope she didn't appear behind them somewhere. If not she probably teleported up somewhere high to a vantage point, so players should keep their head on a swivel while they try to take down the enemy t

Drop locations will have a small variation depending on where the dropship is entering the area. For example, the ship might be coming by way of the Artillery and then the next game it can start from the Hydro Dam. The important item to note here is that no matter where the ship enters the area, it's important to make decisions quickly as players have probably already dropped and are looting while decisions are being made. Time is of the essence here so let's show some of the best locations and explain why they are the b

Loba's Ultimate may not be as strong as some other legends like Bangalore or Revenant, but it is an easy way to collect loot without running around an entire area. An excellent way to use this ability is to enter a high loot area and drop it down to find all the best loot very quickly. This even has a great use later in the match if players find themselves pinned down and running low on ammo or medical kits. This will allow the team to quickly stock up on any resources that could be found in the area without having to leave co

Thanks so much for continuing to work as hard as you can to roll out updates, fixes and changes while grappling with the challenges of COVID-19, including those that may be impacting your own mental hea

Burglar's Best Friend, on the other hand, will be the ability that truly saves the team in tight situations. There are tons of uses for creative players to deploy this ability in combat. Loba can throw her bracelet much higher than she can jump, so that makes the character perfect for acting as a sniper. Just use the ability to instantly climb a building and scope the surrounding area for enemies or other vantage points for the team. If rushed by another team, this ability is great for either avoiding fire or counterattacking. Players could throw their bracelet far away and hide somewhere, or even teleport to an advantageous spot behind or next to enemies. This makes for easy flanking or pinching maneuvers if coordinated with teamma

Within the gaming community, there are countless examples. The ones mentioned look here speak to major, big-budget releases. But even when it comes to indies with small but loyal followings, development teams are hard at work keeping these games fr

As a non-pro player, I’ll always make mistakes. I’ll try to revive a teammate when I should be fighting, and I’ll miss shots that I know aren’t difficult for good players. But I’ve put around 1500 hours into Apex Legends , and yet I can’t recall a time I’ve ever become vocally frustrated with a teammate without obvious provocation. Those I play with will also sometimes run out ahead just to get downed or will push fights they have no chance of winning, but I trust they are doing their best and aim to support them as teammates no matter their choi

For the longest time, the Hemlok was seen as a burst assault rifle that should only be used as a last resort. In Season 5, however, it has quickly ascended in the meta to be a clear and decisive top ten choice. The Retrofitted skin makes the gun feel even more high-class and pairs nicely with the numerous new legend skins the season introduced. Whenever you pair a maroon color with gold and black accents you're already playing with house money in regards to creating a design people will want to acquire and eq

In games of Apex Legends , I’ve found myself matched with profile names that are blatantly racist (they used workarounds to pass spam filters). Once, the first thing someone said was a sexual comment. I’ve been told I was trash for losing a fight by missing a shotgun shot. Random players frequently separate from their teammates, go AFK in the middle of a fight with no explanation and can be toxic in any number of other w
