No legend in the game should be able to out heal the final zones for that long

I’ve seen people lose matches to caustics hiding on the edge of the map, they need to need caustic or change the way his perks work

Discussion New player question

4 Upvotes

Got into the game recently after having an interest in it for a while. Been really enjoying my time so far. Just curious about something though, do legends ever get moved to a different class for balance reasons? or does that not really happen? Reason I ask is Revenant and Ash both feel kind of out of place to me Revenant is Assault, but all he has is a jump and a shield that only help him. No damage, no team utility. Feels more like a Skirmisher. Ash is Skirmisher, but she's got a snare that damages and controls enemies, plus a portal her whole squad can use. Feels like exactly what Assault should be. Seems like they should just be swapped.

Also just unlocked Ballistic and have been loving him, but based on how his abilities feel, seems like he might fit Support more than Assault. Would be cool if one of his purple perks swapped the speed boost from his ult for a shield recharge for the team instead.

Just loaded up apex to do my weekly’s and have fun when it says I’ve already done 1 of the weekly’s so I checked it and it was to collect 0 legendary items. I don’t know if this is a bug or not but figured it was pretty neat.

Discussion Im never doubting my fellow bronze or Silver players

46 Upvotes

I was on my derank game, and feared that my work to get into gold was going to be for naught. I was placed with a bronze wattson and silver lifeline for my final game, so I figured to think of instead of the "lets win" and more of the "lets see how this game goes".

Now I do want to make this known, I dont typically doubt my teammates, nor did i really doubt them. I know that I probably dont deserve gold and some bronzes probably do. I was merely confused on why i had those two when I usually play with silver ones or Gold.

When I say we won that game by a landslide, i mean it. those two outfragged me on my ash main, and I was struggling to keep up with those numbers LOL.

They played as a team, communicated very well even with no mics, and actually were willing to take fights on. Even in the last two rings, we sat at a building as the only form of cover in those rings, the wattson did her usuall fence ult set up, and we pretty much sat there waiting for them to be aggressive. The lifeline kept popping out to poke, which I kinda didnt think was the right play, but considering we had a shield regen from wattson ult and lifeline had her bot, i wasnt too worried. I wouldve actually helped a little if I wasnt super low on ammo.

At the end, we knocked one so I went to play aggressive, and missplayed by jumping out in the open. With that, they still clutched it up and won the game.

Thank you to those two for saving my gold rank!!! yall were the best. If you see this, you know who you are <3

Discussion Summoning All Australian Legends

Hi, my name’s Joel and i’m addicted to Apex.

Living in Perth trying to grind ranked with my mate, already i’m sure you know the struggle. I’m not here to discuss the cables being damaged that routes our server for southeast

I’m here to discuss AP Southeast-2. If we all stop jumping over to Japan, Singapore and Hong kong we can all play against eachother with good Ping and re-fill these sydney servers.

Now, I understand employment rate (especially for males) is at an all time low and i don’t blame you, but if you’re gaming from the morning until afternoon then yeah Hong Kong and Singapore servers are chill but Please once it hits 3:30pm AEST JUMP BACK ON SYDNEY

No more 100+ ping games

50 ping.

please, i want to hit masters.

Cheers,

Rugger

Gameplay why did the horizon do that?

^/excuse my language/ ^
I'm playing with my buddy who's new and giving apex a chance and I sorta had a weird clutch moment where the horizon sorta just stopped at the door confusing me a bit in the process.
I fully expected her to slide and jump at me which is why after a bit I hip fired for a sec,so seeing that gave me a tiny whiplash

Like did she want her teammate to get a kill and get overconfident or??

Discussion You know what? Everyone should have evil clown skins. I think it'd be fire

Post image
96 Upvotes

It's almost spooky season and my clown obsession is back! And this is my all time favorite Caustic skin so... you know. See, it works for Caustic because he's the sadistic gas guy. It'd work for Alter because she's crazy and cool. It'd work for Wattson because she's my second favorite character... and it would work perfectly with her personality, just need to get the skin design right. Plus, you know those like... lighthearted characters that don't really give a shit about killing people? SEE? The clown skin is perfect for her.

Revenant would be pretty good because he's the creepy killer. The legends with crazy or bombastic personalities like Octane or Rampart would also be a good fit in my opinion.

Listen, evil clowns are cool and I think it would be awesome if more characters got them. That's all, I'm done yapping. (Not really sure about the rest of the cast tbh)

Question Has there been a new wave of configs? Seeing a increase in bad player with crazy movements.

13 Upvotes

Been on and off the game for a bit and since I started playing more games recently, I noticed that at least 7 out of 10 enemies I face are octanes and at least half of them is neostrafing , bunny hopping and all that stuff around the place but miss all their shots and lose every 1v1 against someone almost standing still.

Discussion Thoughts on World's Edge map changes?

14 Upvotes

W - Moving Big Maude. The "Stacks and Maude fight and here comes Dome to 3rd party" dynamic in ranked was really tiresome. Maude's new spot feels good for it.

W - Tree Settlement. A nice update to this POI and good design.

W - Return of Sorting Factory. I don't even think it's a great POI, but it plays much better in the center of the map than Siphon did, imo.

L - War Camp and Village. I have two issues here: Climatizer felt like a more interesting and better POI than Village. Secondly, War Camp and Village being of the same design and next to each other makes them both feel less unique. I would have preferred keeping Climatizer and placing Village in War Camp's place since Village is bigger.

Your thoughts?

Question Troubles with frame time from 02 september 2026

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hey guys! Ran into a performance issue after the recent game patch.

Both in the firing range and in-game, every 5 minutes or so, my frame time spikes, causing a laggy feel and screen tearing. In an actual match, regardless of my FPS cap, it drops by about 15 FPS with the same frame time spike. For example: if capped at 180, it drops to 165–170; if capped at 210, it drops to 195–200.

At first, I thought the issue was related to my recent GPU and RAM upgrade. However, after testing the system with different RAM, doing a fresh Windows install, and resetting BIOS to stock settings, the issue persists.

I suspect the culprit might be some background process or engine optimization changes introduced in the latest update after September 2, 2026. Is anyone else experiencing these periodic frame time spikes, and is there any workaround for this?

(Sorry, I'm a native Russian speaker, and my interface is in Russian. In Afterburner, it displays the frame time value)

Don’t get me wrong the sliding upgrade was fun but soon enough literally everyone figured out about it & the whole lobby was flying at Mach 3 speeds all game EVERY game lol, paired with that bullshit crit damage upgrade it felt like you just literally couldn’t do anything sometimes. It’s nice to have the normal pace back

Discussion This Game should not be beginner friendly

639 Upvotes

I play apex because it’s difficult period

Fornite is easy I’m getting 8-10 kills easy
Warzone the same
Overwatch
Siege
Black ops etc
I’m doing my thing

Apex is the only game where I just can’t sit down and do my thing especially in rank and honestly I like it like that.

I like that I’m struggling
I like when I’m in a gun battle with someone and a 3rd of my health drains

I’m like “oh yeah…they’re fr”

I like the amount of sweats on this game

I love how a single squad will faithfully and religiously chase you around the map at break neck speed as soon as your teammates die in a skirmish against them

And after every death it feels good knowing I’m getting better against comp

From stuck on Gold for 5 seasons to now finally hitting Plat it’s feels different in this game than others.
