Apex Legends through the small amount of time it exists has grown as a more layered, balanced, and accessible for new players game over this time. Yet there are still some mechanics that might require some explanation for the beginners. The tips and tricks that we are going to introduce on each of the main aspects of the game will help you get used to the game and improve your performance.

Apex is a team-based battle royale where the type of character you play can determine a lot in terms of gameplay and style you will have to keep to. On each map, 60 players have to explore the surroundings, loot the needed items, gear, and guns to make the next fights easier, and defeat all the opponents until only one squad remains. Considering all these specifics it might be a bit hard to do well in the game from the beginning so here are some things that you need to know to get better results and rise in the rating.

General Tips

Due to the overall competitiveness, the game rewards you for an aggressive playstyle. If you can quickly switch between your weapons and still pressure the enemy dealing significant damage, your chances to win the game rise drastically. Hiding behind covers to heal up or reload and then moving between them will do little good to the result. On the whole, your strategy must build around getting a decent weapon in your first looting and aggressively getting kills from then and then quickly getting on the move to the next target. That will also increase your confidence in your skills and you will not become an easy target. It is especially true for the Olympus, there the tactics of roaming and hunting work best.

The majority of players usually continue to push the opponent when they have managed to get a decent hit first, so if you are on the receiving end, try your best to keep the enemy from getting what he wants and maintain your presence. In this case, it is better to keep the fight going, risking getting defeated. Especially when you are with your team, you still have chances to achieve the squad win even if you fail.

Looting after kills needs to be finished quickly and never stay in one place while dealing with it. Rely on your first scan of the items and do not return to it again, that can increase the chances of facing other enemies.

Of course, if you are planning on progressing your Battle Pass or fulfill some challenges, your actions need to be changed accordingly.

Team coordination

The formation of your team also matters a lot. Covering as much distance is the main aim, this way no enemy will come at you unexpectedly, though keep in mind that there are some risks as well in wide flanks. Your teammates must always be in your line of sight, this way the chance of your squad winning will increase.

Finding a good position leads to 3 main advantages: you can always trap the enemy getting an easy kill, you also get an option to choose a good cover saving yourself from the defeat, even if the fight suddenly goes all wrong you will still have an opportunity to get some heal and retreat. If any of these aspects do not describe your situation, then you do not have an upper hand in the position you are in, and attacking the opposing team will not be easy. This analysis of the surroundings must be performed by characters with team-repositioning skills.

Now that we got on the topic of Legends, you need to know the best combinations of characters work best, which means that the information on the abilities of each is necessary. When you can effectively combine the skills, you can get not only an easy kill but also a win.

Generally, it is better to have one character on the team with a decent mobility-focused ability that can be extended on the whole squad, this way it will be quite hard to take you down. The next component is scouting, this is where Bloodhound or Crypto will help greatly, the threats will be highlighted beforehand, and as a result lower chances of getting into a trap. As for the rest of the squad, they need to choose characters with small or irregular hitboxes, that way getting hit will be a smaller issue, especially in a combination with fast strafing and some close-range guns.

Also remembering your teammate's characters and skins can help avoid a friendly fire in extreme situations.  

Gear

While the preference for weapons is very individual, other pieces of equipment are more universal. We will provide you some general information on the matter.

In most cases having one or two automatic weapons is best, this way you can do decent damage on any range easily. Of course, if you prefer a faster solution rifles will do best, but you will need doof aiming skills.  And the need for attachments also depends on the weapon. Like Volt does not lack inaccuracy, so Stabiliser is better used on Carbine. 

All Shields may be leveled up when you score enough damage to the max of 125 extra HP. So each time you loot an enemy after a kill, check how much is left for the next level if you have the shield of the same tier. As a result, you will have a chance to stand against sniper shots from a distance. On the whole, players prioritize either red or gold shields. In the first case, more hitpoints can save you in a really tough situation, and in the second one, you will be able to efficiently heal, so the next fight will not be as risky. Knockdown Shields actually do not only benefit the bearer, there are many situations when it comes in handy for the whole team: even if your teammate is knocked down, you can still use it as a cover.

Crafting resources can provide you with items you can not obtain in any other way, so accumulating enough of those can play out in your favor in the final fight. So when you choose the landing location you also need to consider this aspect.

Fights

The right analysis of the situation of each in-game situation is a key element to the win. So if you know well when to reposition and when to fight, you know how to effectively act if Apex, so here is some tricks that can help you with that.

When only 3 teams remain in the final stage the choice of entering the fight is a crucial one as the third team to enter the fight will have an advantage over others. It is best to avoid the fight as much as you can until you are in the final two. If you want to join the fight between the two teams, do your best to focus on the team with higher chances of winning, so the later fight will not be as complex.

If one of your teammates is not in good shape and needs a way out of the fight, your whole team needs to contribute to making it possible. So other squad members need to either accompany him or find some ways to make the enemy fall back with abilities or carefully directed gunfire. 

Outside fights try to limit the use of voice comms, ping of any items will do just fine instead. It will only attract enemies and make you an easy target. Of course, voice chat can also play in your favor, this way your teammates will not have to lose the focus from the enemy, as you will be able to easily provide the needed information.
