Has anybody run across a battlepass pace chart for Season 9 yet? I know they used to get posted itt, but I was sidelined for seasons 7 and 8 so not sure if that fell off...

Chard posted:never go on reddit RE Charge Rifle, yeah it's definitely frowned upon but ppl def use it in ranked. I don't see it very often in pubs but that's just due to the nature of how ppl tend to play pubs (overly aggressive). I do remember wiping a squad in KC just outside the circle by bunker (near the explosive hold and that little yellow building) and some team literally sat in a heat shield on the hill overlooking us with charge rifle(s?). Probably the most cringe thing I've ever encountered during pubs lol. TrixR4kids fucked around with this message at 20:01 on May 6, 2021 |

Trying to get back into the swing of things. Partially played during S7, skipped 8, but now I'm back for S9. Would definitely appreciate the opportunity to join some duos or trios.

Even if you fall behind there's like 80 levels total you can get from the 12 sets of weekly challenges (which don't expire), and a lot of them you can do all at the same time. You only need to do 30 levels the "hard" way: at bare minimum log in once every 3 days on average over the next 90 days and finish your dailies.

I think I just had the most satisfying win I've ever had jeez Me and a Wraith had our teammate DC in the first round in Arenas. We loving refused to die though and kept getting tiebreaker rounds, and we were on Match Point a couple times. I lost count but after a certain number of rounds it goes into Sudden Death and we fuckin did it haha. Oh man. We each had 2200 and 2700 damage lol So much dopamine Flatline/ Peacekeeper was what I ran every round, and a few well timed arc stars were clutch. Don't sleep on nades in Arena

Friend spent 30 minutes practicing the bocek against bots in the firing range while he waited for me to get on, he proceeded to dominate everyone we came across just wiping out every squad with precision arrow fire at ranges that shouldn't be easier to hit with a arrow then a bullet. I'll agree that until the eventual nerf patch in 2 weeks from now the bocek is "if you see it or the tempo hopup, you pick it up" tier. I'm expecting it to get 10-20 damage less on the body shot and projectile speed way down and hipfire accuracy not being perfect, it's nutty that it has faster projectile speed and less bullet drop then a 30-30 repeater and even with those huge nerfs I expect it will still be good.

The Bocek is probably the most obviously busted gun they've added. Almost every squad I ran into today had at least one, often two.

I know they won't be doing it for awhile because it's new, but the bow feels like it 100% should be a care package weapon. E: and like I feared, there isn't much of a gameplay niche for bows besides "DMR but [better/worse]".

you put blast caps on and the incredibly accurate and deadly short range weapon gets considerably worse, it's actually kind of funny.

How do the higher Elo members here feel about the Horizon Nerf? At my skill level it doesn't feel like much has changed, but at my skill level I could still put decent damage on Horizons playing silly-buggers on top of their lil gravity elevator... so I'm not exactly at the skill level that was targeted by the nerf.

I love/hate that Valk's ultimate is a better Crypto/Bloodhound and this part of the ability isn't shown anywhere in the trailers and isn't in the ult description (instead it's tacked onto the passive description). Thought the ult would be a good ability for 3-stacks and high-level gameplay but instead the info you get when you launch makes it good no matter the situation.

Do teammates who aren't skydiving get the highlighting information too? Like if you solo launch on your ult, do your teammates see enemies light up?

Anyone splitting off from their team this season has just been met by my entire squad landing on them moments later.

The bow is ridiculously good. 70 damage on bodyshots??? That's 18 less than an amped sentinel and it's really loving easy to use. I thought it might be hard to use but it's way too easy for the damage. Tempo should probably just be built into the shotgun hopup for it. Valkyrie jetpack could be a bit more responsive. Yeah it's a "free" ability but she doesn't get a combat ultimate and putting your weapon away is always going to limit it. Her ultimate is also a lot easier to pull off than I expected. So long as you have something to take cover behind for the slow launch players aren't too good at hitting you. Of course it's value in that area will go down the higher your matchmaking. It might have a lot of value in swooping your team down onto a player split from their squad but I don't know how well it will work in practice.

I've gotten two wins off the back of taking to the skies to give my buddies perfect information for a while, while also repositioning to a flanking position. Takes you out of the fight and the markers vanish immediately upon landing which is what makes it not strictly superior to bloodhound's tactical.

Had a hell of a scuffle yesterday on Valk. Our Loba dived at an enemy team while the rest of us were still scooping up whatever we could from the drop and gave away our position at Power Grid. Cue a protracted combat where me and our Path in a mirror match clambered, swung, jump jetted and generally just zoomed all over and through this one building deathmatching at each other, emptying guns then swiping whatever we could find on the floor until their Valk got a lucky missile swarm off. Was some of the best I've ever had from Apex, don't even mind that I lost it tbh. Was generally just a good day all around to be honest. Got my 2000 dmg badge on a game where our third rage quit in a flurry of slurs after not getting Valk. We hot-dropped Icarus and somehow managed to slaughter our way from one end to the other, keeping incredibly mobile and picking our fights until we circled through Hammond through to Rift, getting in an intense showdown on an open patch between the ring and the phaserunner ball. They really need to fix the Spitfire because jeezus it was MVP.

The season 9 preview stuff made it sound like bocek arrows would be so scarce you'd have to scavenge them from where you shot them but in reality every time I've run the bocek I've had like 130 arrows and been able to fire them with reckless abandon, never bothering to recover an arrow.

Arenas are really fun and they'll be even more fun when the Bocek is nerfed into the ground

If they added like a Cod lens flare when aiming I wouldn't mind it. As it is, you spend half the engagement looking for the shooter.

What are you all using for first round loadouts? I was going Wingman/Mozambique for a bit, but lately been going 30-30 upgraded once so I have a 2x and some extra shots compared to the level 0 Wingman, but maybe there's some better value I can squeeze out of that starting $550

IMO expensive guns really really aren't worth it until like round 3 at the earliest. You're giving up way too much on abilities/meds/grenades/upgrades.
