Basic mechanics

Next we want to give you a series of tricks and tips to help you start playing Apex Legends . This is just a brief handful of initial tips. If you want to go deeper we have more sections that you can go directly below.

Do not go solo: Apex Legendsis a game, at least for the moment, purely cooperative and it will be essential to collaborate with our teammates in order to have any option to win the game so do not leave the group, help your teammates and not you think that alone you will be able to do something against the rest of the platoons.
Use the markers:This Battle Royale stands out for having a very complete marker system that allows us to indicate to our teammates a lot of actions, from the enemy presence to the place to go to or where an object that could be located is located. useful for one of our colleagues. Use the system whenever you can, it will be very useful for your team.
Learn the skills of at least two Legends:Legends are the characters that we will be able to choose during the game and they have very marked roles that go from healers to tanks through characters specialized in doing damage.

Each of the legends has three different abilities and we advise you to know, at least, the abilities of two of them , if possible with different roles in order to have the freedom to choose the Legend that best suits the team in each game.

The ideal considering the hours of play is to know the abilities of each and every one of the legends but at the beginning we believe that two are enough (if you ask us, Bangalore and Lifeline are two very useful legends for newbies ).

Be carefulwith the ammunition: In our first games we have realized that the ammunition in Apex Legends is conspicuous by its absence, so, readers of Vandal, be very careful when shooting your weapons unnecessarily. If an enemy is far away and you think you can miss the shots, try to go unnoticed, get close and open fire only when you are sure you can hit.
Mindful of resurrection mechanics:One of the most original things about Apex Legends is a new and particular resurrection mechanic . When an enemy eliminates our partner, he will be KO, lying on the ground and being able to revive him in a similar way to other Battle Royale.

But also, if in this state we are not able to bring him back to life, we will still have an opportunity to resurrect our partner by collecting what Respawn calls “his flag”. This flag will be kept in a kind of PDA after collecting it and to resurrect our friend we will have to go to some reappearance beacons that will allow him to return to life.
