Apex's newest character might finally help me not suck

 Apex's newest character might finally help me not suck

Apex Legends' latest season, Hunted, is out tomorrow. With it comes your usual helping of map changes, character balancing, and a new legend that may finally help me not suck at the game.

Her name is Vantage, and she's Apex's first sniping-focused character. While we haven't gotten hands-on with her yet, Respawn has shared a brief teaser and description of her abilities, including one perk that should make long-range shots a lot easier to land.

  • Spotter's Lens (passive): Aim down sights to scout with your eyepiece (unarmed or with mid- to long-range scopes) and use a bullet drop indicator to see where your shots will land.
  • Echo Location (tactical): Position your winged companion Echo and then Launch towards him. Must have line of sight to Echo for Launch.
  • Sniper's Mark (ultimate): Use your custom sniper rifle to mark enemy targets which applies a damage bonus for you and your team.

The ability I have my eye on there is Spotter's Lens. As a lapsed casual Apex player, bullet drop is one aspect of the game I've never been able to wrap my head around. You'd think after 10 years of playing Battlefield games that I'd be able to land a sniper shot, but Apex's constant mobility makes consistent accuracy especially tough. A bullet drop indicator could be the assist I need to finally become a competent squadmate. I imagine experienced sharpshooters are more excited by her Sniper's Mark ultimate that can essentially mark players for death. This sounds a lot like a long-range, ultra-deadly version of Zenyatta's Discord Orb in Overwatch.

We also shouldn't forget that one of the most powerful abilities in the game, self-revive, is also getting completely removed. Gold Knockdown Shields will now have the Guardian Angel perk, while Gold Backpacks get Deep Pockets, a new perk that lets users hold additional healing items per slot.

Elsewhere in the Hunted patch notes are a heap of weapon and character balancing changes. Fresh on the chopping block is Valkyrie, who's getting a major nerf to the VTOL jets that make her so popular among high-ranked players. Her powerful repositioning ultimate, Skyward Dive, is now both slower and lower, making it easier than before to pick her squad out of the sky before landing. Meanwhile, Newcastle is getting big buffs to basically every part of his kit, which leads me to believe he was underperforming during his debut season.
